We want to do well at school for an obvious reason.

Because, as we're often told, it's the primary route to doing well at life.

Few of us are in love with the A grades themselves.

We want them because we're understandably interested in one day having a fulfilling career, a pleasant house and the respect of others.

But sometimes, more often than seems entirely reassuring, something pretty confusing occurs.

We come across people who triumphed at school but flunked at life and vice versa.

The former stars who once knew exactly how to satisfy their teachers may now be flatlining in a law office

or relocating to a provincial town in the hope of finding something better.

The path that seemed guaranteed to lead to success has run into the sand.

We shouldn't actually be surprised.

School curricula are not designed by people who necessarily have much experience of or talent at the world beyond.

School curricula are not reverse -engineered from fulfilled adult lives in the here and now.

They were intellectually influenced by all kinds of slightly random forces over hundreds of years of evolution, shaped by, among other things,

the curricula of medieval monasteries, the ideas of some 19th century German educationalists, and the concerns of aristocratic court societies.

This helps to explain the many bad habits that schools can inculcate.

They suggest that the most important things are already known, that what is is all that could be.

They can't help but warn us about the dangers of originality.

They want us to put up our hands and wait to be asked.

They want us to keep asking other people for permission.

They teach us to deliver on rather than change expectations.

They teach us to redeploy ideas rather than originate them.

They teach us to respect people in authority rather than imagine that in rather inspiring ways,

no one actually knows quite what's going on.

They teach us everything other than the two skills

that really determine the quality of adult life Knowing how to choose the right job for us

and knowing how to form satisfactory relationships

They'll instruct us in Latin

and how to measure the circumference of a circle long before they teach us these core subjects Work

and love That said it isn't

that all we need to do to succeed at life is

flunk school a good life requires us to do two very tricky things.

Be a very good boy or girl for twenty years

and simultaneously never really believe blindly in the long -term validity or seriousness of what we're being asked to study.

We need to be outwardly, entirely obedient, while inwardly, intelligently and unashamedly rebellious.

“sh” 和 “zh” 音: reassure /ˌɹi.əˈʃʊɹ/, unashamedly /ˌʌnəˈʃeɪmɪdli/, expectation /ˌɛk.spɛkˈteɪ.ʃən/, provincial /pɹəˈvɪn(t)ʃəl/

词尾辅音 — 要读清楚，后面不要加元音: flunk /flʌŋk/, aristocratic /ˌæɹɪstəˈkɹætɪk/, circumference /sɚˈkʌmfɹəns/, inculcate /ˈɪn.kʌl.keɪt/, instruct /ɪnˈstɹʌkt/

什么是跟读法？

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
