1,A sense of wonder that lasts all their lives.
2,Their feeling that they know too little about nature.
3,Because only once the emotions have been aroused, do we then wish for knowledge about the object of our emotional response. Then once found, such knowledge has far more lasting meaning than mere information.
4,They can still look up at the sky, listen to the wind, feel the rain on their face and contemplate the perfume and flavour of a fruit. City-dwellers can find a park or a golf course where they can observe the migrations of birds and the changing seasons, or plant a seed in a pot in the kitchen window.
5,She means paying more attention to the sensations and information we get from our senses. She suggests that we ask ourselves: "What if I had never seen this before? What if I knew I would never see it again?"
6,She answers the second question first: "Is the exploration of the natural world just a pleasant way to pass the golden hours of childhood or is there something deeper?"She is "sure there is something much deeper, something lasting and significant." The value she sees in it is inner peace, strength and satisfaction, as outlined in paragraph 7.
7,She is referring to the repeating cycles of nature, and to emotional/spiritual healing. As an example of a person who never lost his sense of wonder, no matter how old he became.
8,When he realized he was going to die soon. His statement shows that his sense of wonder extended even to death itself.

我真诚地相信，对于孩子们来说，对于想要指导他们的父母们来说，感受比知道要重要得多。如果事实是以后能长出知识与智慧的种子，那么情感和感官印象则是种子必须赖以生长的沃土。幼儿时期就是培育土壤的时候。一旦情感被激起—— 一种对美的感受，对新的和未知事物的激动，一种同情、怜悯、敬慕或爱恋的感觉——我们就会渴望了解引起我们情感反应的事物。一旦找到，这种知识就比纯粹的信息具有持久得多的意义。为孩子们的求知欲铺平道路比向他们灌输一堆他们不准备吸收的事实更为重要。

我希望于所有学生的是从未来的严酷无情中得到一些解脱。我希望他们有机会把他们每一阶段的教育纯粹作为一种经历来享受，而不是作为一种为下一步作准备的令人厌倦的需要。我希望他们有权利试验、跌跤，并懂得失败如同胜利一样具有教育意义，而不是世界的末日。当然，我的希望是天真的。在美国人没有声明而拥有的为数不多的权利之中，有一个便是失败的权利。成就是民族之神，它在我们的媒体中受到崇拜——身价百万的运动员，富有的主管人员——它在我们对财富的赞扬中得到荣耀。年轻人就是在这样一种强有力的国教的熏陶下长大的。

对一个外国人来说，身在美国可能是一次奇特的经历。在国外7年以后—4年在法国，3年在波兰，我和妻子于一月份到达美国。从杂乱的初步印象中，我们编了一套从A到Z的解释，来说明为什么对那些从欧洲到这里的人来说，美国会是这样陌生的一个国家。我应该一开始就说明我是一个英国人，但在佛罗里达出生的我的妻子莉萨却是个如苹果馅饼般地道的美国人。不过，在我们列出的清单中，A并不代表苹果馅饼。它代表的是：雄心(Ambition)。在旧大陆中，人们受的教育是要掩饰它。在这儿，宣称你在追求老板的职位或者想在30岁以前赚上100万美元，并没有什么不合适。

Some Differences between Families in China and America
There are some very striking differences between families in China and America.One difference is that Chinese children always take care of their old parents. If they don't take care of them, friends and colleagues will gossip about them. Chinese society condemns this kind of behavior, and sometimes newspapers even write about children who neglect their old parents. But in the United States, adult children often put their parents in nursing homes, and this is seen as an acceptable (if not entirely desirable) thing to do.Another difference is that Chinese parents sacrifice everything for their children, and they are very stern with them. Parents put a lot of pressure on their children to study hard. They think that studying will make the children successful. In fact, many teenagers study long hours a day and are not allowed to date. But in the United States, parents think their own lives are as important as their children's lives. They have more freedom, and they give their children more freedom too. Parents let their children stay alone or relax after school, and they think it's natural for their teenagers to date. (189 words)
