Let us say there is something you don’t know how to do.

In the past if you were determined to learn, you might have called a friend or relative, taken a night class or walked down to the local library for a research there. But now a host of websites are springing up to provide free practical advice on these subjects and actually anything else you can think of.

In one sense, these “how-to” sites represent(表明) a part of the growing world of online learning. This tradition found one of its earliest forms in the FAQ—or Frequently Asked Questions files—that began on Usenet, the Internet’ s global discussion group. These FAQs, many of which still circulate (go round continuously), took a specific subject—and explained it to complete novices.

But “how-to” sites take the FAQs idea in a somewhat different direction by addressing subjects that aren’t necessarily related to discussion forums(論壇).These sites take the style of a written tutorial (teaching period) and a tone of friendly advice. Possibly the biggest and best known of these sites is learn2.com (www.learn2.com).It offers nearly 1 000 free tutorials and adds new ones frequently for a job interview.

At ehow.com (www.ehow.com) you can learn how to train for your first marathon, how to buy a vacation home, or how to make a movie in eight steps.

1.The purpose of writing the passage is to _____________.

A. introduce new websites to people

Let children learn to judge their own work.A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time; if corrected too much, he will stop talking.He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the language he uses and the language those around him use.Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people’s.In the same way, children learn to do all the other things without being taught to walk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle…They compare their own performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes.But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes and correct them for himself.We do it all for him.We act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake.If it is a matter in mathematics or science, give him the answer book.Let him correct his own papers.Why should we teachers waste time in such routine(日常的)work?
