22、ord “education”, they think of a pupil as a sort of animate sausage casing. Into this empty casting, the teachers (26) _ stuff “education.” But genuine education, as Socrates knew more than two thousand years ago, is not (27) _ the stuffing of information into a person, but rather eliciting knowledg

23、e from him; it is the (28) _of what is in the minD) “The most important part of education,” once wrote William Ernest Hocking, the (29) _Harvard philosopher, “is this instruction of a man in what he has inside of him.” And, as Edith Hamilton has reminded us, Socrates never said, “I know, learn from

24、me。 ” He said, rather, “Look into your own selves and find the (30) _of the truth that God has put into every heart and that only you can kindle (点燃)to a (31) _ .” In a dialogue, Socrates takes an ignorant slave boy, without a day of (32) _ , and proves to the amazed observers that the boy really “k

Although innovation kills some jobs, it creates new and better ones, as a more 39 society becomes richer and its wealthier inhabitants demand more goods and serv
