I was outside my comfort zone, feeling awkward and uncertain. I tried to follow her directions, but I made mistakes in front of the others, and it felt em

11、barrassing . Heres the thing: Although the act of learning is related to abilities, behaviors and methods, the experience of learning is emotional. And its the emotional experience of learningof being a beginner and making mistakes, often publiclythat keeps people from even trying to learn. While le

12、arning may not be that hard, being a beginner can be very hard, especially when we see ourselves, and want to be seen by others in a group, as skilled and confident. Being awkward can even feel shameful. But its just a stage we have to go through in order to become graceful and competent. And our un

13、willingness to experience this stage can stop our future growth. This is especially true of areas where you, re already an expert. Though I have taught leadership programs for 30 years, I still spend at least three weeks every year going to various personal development programs. More often than not,

14、 I, like a beginner, tried new skills, feeling awkward and even shame for not being better at a skill. And those are hard feelings to feel. But they are the unavoidable growth pains that come with learning, developing, and becoming better at something. I wish, by the end of the weekend workshop, I c

What are the patterns in the soun

19、ds, words, and meanings of which language is composed, and where do they come from? Progress toward answering these questions has been blocked by the previous misconception that humans possess an ideal language, where words have clear meanings and are put together following well-defined grammatical

20、rules.However, language, I suggest, is like a game of improvised charades (即兴字谜游戏) a limitless collection of loosely connected games, each shaped by the demands of the situation and the shared history of the players. Like charades, language is continually “invented” in the moment and reinvented each

21、 time we play again. Ludwig Wittgenstein, a most influential philosopher, saw meaning as arising from how we use language in communicative games. A cry of “hammer!” could be an instruction to start hammering or to pass a hammer and so on.From this perspective (角度), learning a language is like learni

22、ng to be part of a series of endless, community-wide games of charades, where each new game builds on those that have gone before. Each new generation of language learners is not starting from scratch but joining a tradition of linguistic (语言的) games that have been in progress from before anyone can

23、 remember. To join in the game, the child, or the second-language-learning adult, needs to jump into a linguistic game and start playing. This is how they gradually master specific communicative challenges, one by one.Humans have collectively and accidentally created language, which has allowed us t

When connected electronically, they are away from physical reality.People have been influenced to become technology addicted. One survey reported that “addicte

28、d” was the word most commonly used by people to describe their relationship to iPad and similar devices. One study found that people had a harder time resisting the allure of social media than they did for sleep, cigarettes and alcohol.The main goal of technology companies is to get people to spend

29、more money and time on their products, not to actually improve our quality of life. They have successfully created a cultural disease.

31、 time and money.What is a healthy use of technology devices? That is the vital question. Who is really in charge of my life?
