Traffic jams can cause many serious problems，forcing the system to close down for repair. Naturally，accidents will happen on such a crowded road，and usually victims are some files，gone forever. Then，of course，there’s Mr. Cool，with this new broad-band connection，who speeds down the highway faster than most of us can go. But don’t trick yourself；he pays for that speeding.

“We need to excite people about the sounds you start to hear, if you merely quiet things down a little,During a Japanese tea ceremony,the smallest sounds become a kind of art the spoons making a light ringing sound on a bowl, the edges of a kimono（和服）brushing against the floor.
“Deaf people are very attentive（专注的） in almost every aspect of life. If two deaf people are walking together,using sign language, they constantly watch out for each oher and protect each other by paying steady attention to the other.They are connected yet also fully aware of their surroundings,Even deaf teenagers! We in the hearing world can learn from them.If we remove the powerful blasts（一阵阵）of noise .we become aware of an extraordinarily rich world around us---of little soft sounds and the sound of footsteps,of bind songs and ice cracking（开裂声），it’s astonishing how beautiful things sound when you can really listen..”

If we agree that the function of education is to prepare us for life, then there is very little time to waste. So, while we can, we ought to concentrate on teaching children something really useful. Here is what our schools should teach.
Politeness is a mark of civilization. The sooner children learn this, the better . In any case, a lot can be accomplished by a smile and good manners.
Like it or not, our adult lives will be consumed by the struggle for money, but we dont make an effort to teach children how to manage it. So our schools have a duty to teach them this ability from the beginning.
Were likely to accept something we are told, but thats not what educated people do. Educated people are reasonable and they look at facts. If our schools teach nothing else, they should at least teach critical（批判性的）thinking.
Children should learn to take care of their health. They should know that if they eat junk food（垃圾食品）,they will become fat and unhealthy. They should be very clear about what happens to their bodies when they drink or smoke.
All of us are part of society. We have rights and responsibilities. We ought to understand what they are. We have to know a little bit of our history and geography, because we need to have an environment in which to relate to the people around us.
How will we test students on these? We cant. But thats not a reason to avoid teaching what is important. Our schools should spend every moment they have telling this to our children:"This is life, this is what you are going to face, and this is how you deal with it."
Title        Very Useful (76)
