16、one is in possession of.Structural analysis 2Structural analysisMain idea2. How are the paragraphs that comprise the body of the essay organized and developed? These paragraphs are all organized and developed by the deductive method. A question often asked is: “What are the marks of an educated man?

17、” It is plain that one may gain no inconsiderable body of learning in some special field of knowledge without at the same time acquiring those habits and traits which are the marks of an educated gentleman. A reasonable amount of learning must of course accompany an education, but, after all, that a

18、mount need not be so very great in any one field. An education will make its mark and find its evidences in certain traits, characteristics, and capacities which have to be acquired by patient endeavor, by following good examples, and by receiving wise discipline and sound instruction.Five Traits of

19、 the Educated ManDetailed reading1Detailed readingNicholas Murray Butler12Detailed reading2Detailed reading These traits or characteristics may be variously described and classified, but among them are five that should always stand out clearly enough to be seen by all men. The first of these is corr

20、ectness and precision in the use of the mother tongue. The quite shocking slovenliness and vulgarity of much of the spoken English, as well as not a little of the written English, which one hears and sees, proves beyond doubt that years of attendance upon schools and colleges that are thought to be

21、respectable have produced no impression. When one hears English well spoken, with pure diction, correct pronunciation, and an almost unconscious choice of the right word, he recognizes it at once. How much easier he finds it to imitate English of the other sort!3Detailed reading3.1Detailed reading A

22、 second and indispensable trait of the educated man is refined and gentle manners, which are themselves the expression of fixed habits of thought and action. “Manners make the man,” wrote William of Wykeham over his gates at Winchester and at Oxford. He pointed to a great truth. When manners are sup

23、erficial, artificial, and forced, no matter what their form, they are bad manners. When, however, they are the natural expression of fixed habits of thought and action, and when they reveal a refined and cultivated nature, Detailed reading3.2-4Detailed readingthey are good manners. There are certain

24、 things that gentlemen do not do, and they do not do them simply because they are bad manners. The gentleman instinctively knows the difference between those things which he may and should do and those things which he may not and should not do. A third trait of the educated man is the power and habi

25、t of reflection. Human beings for the most part live wholly on the surface of life. They do not look beneath the surface or far beyond the present moment and that part of the future which is quickly to follow it. 4Detailed reading4.2Detailed readingThey do not read those works of prose and poetry wh

26、ich have become classic because they reveal the power and habit of reflection and induce that power and habit in others. When one reflects long enough to ask the question how?, he is on the way to knowing something about science. When he reflects long enough to ask the question why?, he may, if he p

27、ersists, even become a philosopher. A fourth trait of the educated man is the power of growth. He continues to grow and develop from birth to his dying day. His interests expand, his contacts multiply, his knowledge increases, and his reflection becomes deeper and wider. It would appear to be true t

28、hat not many human beings, and even not many of those who have had a college education, continue to grow after they are twenty-four or twenty-five years of age. By that time it is usual to settle down to life on a level of more or less contented intellectual interest and activity. The whole present-

29、day movement for adult education is a systematic and definite attempt to keep human beings growing long after they have left school and college, and, therefore, to help educate them.Detailed reading5Detailed reading5 A fifth trait of the educated man is his possession of efficiency, or the power to

30、do. The mere visionary dreamer, however charming or however wise, lacks something which an education requires. The power to do may be exercised in any one of a thousand ways, but when it clearly shows itself, that is evidence that the period of study, of discipline, and of companionship with parents

31、 and teachers has not been in vain.Detailed reading6Detailed reading6 Given these five characteristics, one has the outline of an educated man. That outline may be filled in by scholarship, by literary power, by mechanical skills, by professional zeal and capacity, by business competence, or by soci

32、al and political leadership. So long as the framework or outline is there, the content may be pretty much what you will, assuming, of course, that the fundamental elements of the great tradition which is civilization, and its outstanding records and achievements in human personality, in letters, in

33、science, in the fine arts, and in human institutions, are all present.Detailed reading7Detailed reading7With a topic-related question, the paragraph points out the relationship between learning and the marks of an educated man, between learning and education, and between education and certain traits

34、 and capacities which have to be gained by conscious effort.Questions1)What do you think of the question raised at the very beginning?Detailed reading1QuestionThe question put forward at the very beginning is an important one. It immediately attracts the readers attention and starts the readers thin

During the summer vacation a fine-looking young man, who was majoring in literature at a top university, asked for an interview, and before we had talked for five minutes, he launched into his complaint. “Can you imagine?” he lamented. “During vacation I have to write a three

236、-thousand-word term paper about your books.” He felt very sorry for himself.WHEN DOES EDUCATION STOP?James MichenerText1Text IIMemorable quotes12 His whimpering irritated me, and on the spur of the moment I shoved at him a card which had become famous in World War II. It was once used on me. It read

237、: Young man, your sad story is truly heartbreaking. Excuse me while I fetch a crying towel. My complaining visitor reacted as I had done twenty years earlier, he burst into laughter and asked, “Did I sound that bad?”Text2Text IIMemorable quotes34Text3Text IIMemorable quotes “Worse!” I snapped. Then

238、I pointed to a novel of mine which he was using as the basis for his term paper. “Youre bellyaching about a three-thousand-word paper which at most will occupy you for a month. When I started work on Hawaii, I faced the prospect of a three-million-word term paper. And five years of work. Frankly, yo

239、u sound silly.” This strong language encouraged an excellent discussion of the preparation it takes to write a major novel. Five years of research, months of character development, extensive work on plot and setting, endless speculation on psychology and concentrated work on historical backgrounds.5

240、6Text4Text IIMemorable quotes “When I was finally ready to write,” I replied under questioning, “holed up in bare-wall, no-telephone Waikiki room and stuck at my typewriter every morning for eighteen months, seven days a week I wrestled with the words that would not come, with ideas that refused to

241、jell. When I broke a tooth, I told the dentist Id have to see him at night. When Dewitt Wallace, the editor of the Readers Digest and a man to whom I am much indebted, came to Hawaii on vacation, I wanted to hike with him but had to say, In the late afternoon. In the morning I work.”7Text5Text IIMem

242、orable quotes I explained to my caller that I write all my books slowly, with two fingers on an old typewriter, and the actual task of getting the words on paper is difficult. Nothing I write is good enough to be used in first draft, not even important personal letters, so I am required to rewrite e

243、verything at least twice. Important work, like a novel, must be written over and over again, up to six or seven times. For example, Hawaii went very slowly and needed constant revision. Since the final version contained about 500,000 words, and since I wrote it all many times, I had to type in my pa

244、instaking fashion about 3,000,000 words.8Text6Text IIMemorable quotes At this news, my visitor whistled and asked, “ How many research books did you have to consult?” “Several thousand. When I started the actual writing, there were about five hundred that I kept in my office.” “How many personal int

245、erviews?” “About two hundred. Each two or three hours long.” “Did you write much that you werent able to use?” “I had to throw away about half a million words.” The young scholar looked again at the card and returned it reverently to my desk. “Would you have the energy to undertake such a task again

246、?” he asked.9101112131415Text7Text IIMemorable quotes “I would always like to be engaged in such tasks,” I replied, and he turned to other questions. Young people, especially those in college who should know better, frequently fail to realize hat men and women who wish to accomplish anything must ap

247、ply themselves to tasks of tremendous magnitude. A new vaccine may take years to perfect. A Broadway play is never written, cast and produced in a week. A foreign policy is never evolved in a brief time by diplomats relaxing in Washington, London or Geneva.1617Text8Text IIMemorable quotes The good w

248、ork of the world is accomplished principally by people who dedicate themselves unstintingly to the big job at hand. Weeks, months, years pass, but the good workman knows that he is gambling on an ultimate achievement which cannot be measured in time spent. Responsible men and women leap to the chall

249、enge of jobs that require enormous dedication and years to fulfill, and are happiest when they are so involved.18Text9Text IIMemorable quotes This means that men and women who hope to make a real contribution to American life must prepare themselves to tackle big jobs, and the interesting fact is th

250、at no college or university in the world can give anyone the specific education he will ultimately need. Adults who are unwilling to reeducate themselves periodically are doomed to mediocrity.19Text10Text IIMemorable quotes I first discovered this fact on Guadalcanal in 1945, when the war had passed

251、 us by and we could see certain victory ahead. Relieved of pressure, our top admirals and generals could have been excused if they loafed, but the ones I knew well in those days took free time and gave themselves orderly courses in new fields. One carrier admiral studied everything he could get on t

252、ank warfare. The head of our outfit, William Lowndes Calhoun, spent six hours a day learning French.20Text11Text IIMemorable quotes I asked him about this. “Admiral, whats this big deal with French?” “How do I know where Ill be sent when the wars over?” he countered. But what impressed me most was t

253、he next tier of officers, the young Army colonels and the Navy commanders. They divided sharply into two groups: those who spent their spare time learning something and those who didnt. In the years that followed, I noticed in the newspapers that whenever President Truman or President Eisenhower cho

254、se men for military positions of great power, they always picked from the officers who had reeducated themselves.212223Text12Text IIMemorable quotes More significant to me personally was my stay with the brilliant doctors of an Army hospital in the jungles of Espiritu Santo. The entire staff of a ge

255、neral hospital in Denver, Colorado, had been picked up and flown out to care for our wounded, and they experienced days of overwork followed by weeks of tedium. In the latter periods the doctors organized voluntary study groups by which to further their professional competence.24Text13Text IIMemorab

256、le quotes By good luck, I was allowed to participate in a group that was analyzing alcoholism, and one night the leader asked me, as we were breaking up, “What are you studying, Michener?” The question stunned me, for I had been studying exactly nothing. I drove back through the jungle and that very

257、 night started working on something that I had been toying with for some months. In a lantern-lit, mosquito-filled tin shack, I started writing Tales of the South Pacific. I have been the typical American in that I have had widely scattered jobs: teacher, businessman, soldier, traveler, writer. And

258、my college education gave me no specific preparation for any of these jobs. 252627Text14Text IIMemorable quotes But it gave me something much better. I attended Swarthmore College, outside Philadelphia, and by fantastic luck, I got there just as the college was launching an experiment which was to t

259、ransform the institution and those of us who participated. At the end of my sophomore year the faculty assembled a group of us and said, “Life does not consist of taking courses in a small segment. A productive life consists of finding huge tasks and mastering them with whatever tools of intelligenc

260、e and energy we have. We are going to turn you loose on some huge tasks. Lets see what you can do with them.”28Text15Text IIMemorable quotes Accordingly, we were excused from all future class attendance and were told, “Pick out three fields that interest you.” I chose logic, English history and the

261、novel. The faculty said, “For the next two years go to the library and learn what you can about your fields. At the end of two years well bring in some outside experts from Harvard and Yale, whom you never seen, and they will determine whether or not you have educated yourselves. What followed was a

262、n experience in intellectual grandeur. The Swarthmore professors, 29Text16Text IIMemorable quotesrealizing that when I was tested they would be tested too, helped me to gain as thorough an education as a young man could absorb. For it was in their interest to see that I understood the fine points of

263、 the fields I had chosen. When the two years ended, the visiting experts arrived and for a week they probed and tested and heckled. At the end of this exciting time one of the examiners told me, “You have the beginning of a real education.”30Text17Text IIMemorable quotes He was right. Nothing that I

264、 studied in college has been of use to me in my various jobs. But what I did learn was how to learn, how to organize, how to write term papers. If my education had ended the week I stood before those strange examiners, I would have proved a fairly useless citizen . While I was reflecting on these ma

265、tters, my young scholar asked, “If you were a young man today and wanted to be a writer, what kind of education would you seek?” 3132 I replied, “Id choose some very difficult field and try to master it. Id seek out professors who really poured it on. Long term papers and many of them, tough laborat

266、ory work.” “Why?” he pressed. “Because we learn only those things at which we have to work very hard. Its ridiculous to give a bright fellow like you a three-thousand-word term paper. It ought to be fifteen thousand words or thirty. Tackle a real job. Then, when youre through, youre on the way to fa

267、cing big jobs in adult life.”Text18Text IIMemorable quotes333435 We parted on that note, but when he had gone, I realized that I had not made my statement nearly strong enough. I should have said, “The world is positively hungry for young men who have dedicated themselves to big jobs. If your presen

268、t professors arent training you for such work, quit them and find others who will drive you. If your present college isnt making you work to the limit of your ability, drop out and go to another that will. Because if you dont discipline your brain now, youll never be prepared for the years when its

269、a question of work or perish.”Text19Text IIMemorable quotes36Text20Text IIMemorable quotes Parents or professors who do not encourage their young to tackle big jobs commit a moral crime against those young people. For we know that when the young are properly challenged, they will rise to the occasio

270、n and they will prepare themselves for the great work that remains to be done.37James Michener (1907-1997) is an American writer who is famous throughout the world as the author of such best selling novels as Hawaii (1960), Centennial (1974), and Space (1983). Born in New York City, Michener taught

271、social sciences and worked as an editor before entering the Navy during World War II. His wartime experiences in the Solomon Islands of the South Pacific led him to write his first book, Tales of the South Pacific (1947), for which he won the Pulitzer Prize.
