It was conversation I was hearing,the free,1. ,witty exchanges of studied minds as polished as fine tools.They were always courteous;no two ever spoke together;there were no 2. ;they all talked to the question before the hou, and while they were on the job of exposition anyone, regardless of his sid
e, would contribute his quota of facts, or his remembrance of some philosopher’s opinion or some poet’s perfect phra for the elucidation or the beautification of the theme. When the differences ro the urbanity persisted. They drank their California wine with a3. , they smoked the room thick, and they presd their views
with vigor and sincerity and eloquence; but their good temper failed them. It was conversation. I had never heard conversation before; I have heard conversation sometimes since, but rarely, and never like my remembrance of tho wonderful Saturday night in San Francisco—4. were my preparation for college.
For tho conversations, so 5. , so scholarly, and so consciously unknowing, emed to me, silent in the background, to reveal the truth that even college graduates did not know anything, really. Evidences they had, all the testimony of all the wi men in the historical world on everything, but no decision 6. . I must mylf go to college to find out more, and I wanted to.

(A) The elect were,for the most part,boys who had been brought up to do their duty.They memorized whatever they are teachers told them to learn.Whether they wanted to know it,whether they understood it or not,they could remember and recite it.Their own driving motives were,so far as i could make out,not curiosity;they rarely talked about our studies,and if I spoke of the implications of something we had read or heard,they looked dazed or indifferent.Their own motives were foreign to me;to beat the other follows,stand high,reprent the honor of the school.
My parents did not bring me up.They nt me to school,they gave me teachers of music,drawing ;they offer me every opportunity in their reach.But also they gave me倜傥的拼音
liberty and the tools of quite another life;hors,guns,dogs,and the range of an open country.As I have shown,the people,the business,and the dreams of this life interested me,and I learned well whatever interested me.School subjects which happened to bear on my outside interests I studied in school and out;I read more than was required,and I read for keeps,too.I know the subjects to this day,just as I remember and love still the men and women,the boys and girls,who let me be friends with them then and so revealed to me some of the depths and the limitations of human nature.On the other had I can remember few of my teachers and little of the subjects which emed to me irrelevant to my life.
The other subjects are interesting, and they might have been made interesting to me.No one tried to interest me in them;;they were put before me as things that I had to have to get into college.The teachers of them did not appear to my curious,active mind.The result was that I did not really work at them and so got only what stuck by dent of repetition:the barest rudiments of a school education.When I knock at the college gates,I was prepared for a college education in some branches;my mind was hungry enough for the answers to some profound questions to have made m
e work and develop mylf,especially on lines which I know now had no ready answers,only more and ever more questions:science,metaphysics etc.I was not in the least curious about Greek,Latin,mathematics,and the other “knowledge”required by the standardization of that day.

(B) No man ever looks at the world with pristine eyes.He es it edited by a definite t of customs and institutions and ways of thing.Even in his philosophical probings he cannot go behind the stereotypes；his very concepts of the true and the fal will still have reference to his particular traditional customs.John Dewey has said in alll riousness that the part played by custom in shaping the behavior of the individual as over against anyway in which he can affect traditional custom,is as the portion of the total vocabulary of his mother togue over against tho words of his own baby talk that are taken up into the vernacular of his family.When one riously studies the social orders that have had the opportunity to develop autonomously,the figures become no more than an exact and matter-of-fact obrvation.The life history of the individual is first and foremost an
accommodation to the patterns and standards traditionally handed down in his community.From the moment of his birth the customs into which he is born shape his experience and behaviour.By the time he can talk,he is the little creature of his culture,and by the time he is grown and able to take part in its activities,its habits are his habits,its beliefs his beliefs,its impossibilities his impossibilities.Every child that is born to his group will share them with him,and no child born into one on the opposite side of the globe can ever achieve the thousandth part.There is no social problem it is more incumbent upon us to understand this of the
