Truth is a shadow of doubt

This is a real thought-provoking and the trivial.
Not long ago, a French expert in educational psychology, to France’s primary and secondary school students and Runescape Money in Shanghai has a following this exactly the same test: a board of 86 head of cattle, 34 sheep, Q: The ship’s captain How old?
France’s primary and secondary school students to answer is that over 90% of the students objected that this test can not answer the fundamental question, and even the teacher laughed at the “muddle-headed.” It is clear that these students is the answer. Shanghai’s primary and secondary school students to answer the contrary: 80% of students made a serious answer ,86-34-year-old = 52. Only 10% of students believe that this title is absurd, impossible to answer. Make the right answer only 10% of the students went so far!
The French educational psychology expert was surprised that the two countries of primary and secondary school students Why is there such a big difference between them? He passed on the Shanghai 80% of our primary investigation revealed that the reason they made the wrong answer, because they firmly believe that: “The teacher education, we usually only answer to the question, can score; not , But no one has. Teachers out of the question is always, always have the answer, it is impossible not to do, they can not answer is no. “
France educational psychology expert at the sum of these two experiments, quoted the following Runescape GP:
Descartes said that the first sentence is: is the method of doubt.
Faraday said that the second sentence is: do not blindly followed the academic master, he should be re-Zhong Ren did not matter, the truth is that he should be the primary goal.
Einstein said that the third sentence is: the process of scientific discovery is a curiosity, concern began to leap forward.
He then feeling quite sermon: “The children should respect teachers, but more education to the children respect the truth. Is not the shortcomings of the doubt, the doubt is always endless shortcomings. Only dare to doubt in order to reduce the blind obedience. There are Doubt be the truth, the truth is a shadow of doubt. “

The title of intellectual enlightenment

The university’s psychology course is very interesting, teachers often some interesting questions, such as there is a problem like this: a devout young monk visits to the mountain Runescape Power leveling, starting in the early morning up to the top after a night spent in the mountains . In the early morning the next day and the day before the same time, he sets. In his confirmation on the way down the mountain, certainly at the same time through aRs Gold.
At first glance, think of this interesting new title, but did not understand why they think from different angles. No way to the title in the length nor the speed down to the last, if the mountain when the young monk in a slower or faster when he is down, how can guarantee that he would at the same time through a single point? The teacher gives the answer: two days in the young monk as two people, assuming they are on the same day the same time, another one down the mountain, they will encounter on the way, that is, at the same time after The same point.
The reason why I did not find an answer, because I only had a certain individual. This story can be told when to get along with others, conflict with others, from the perspective of their own can not solve the problem, only two people from the point of view, in order to find a solution to the problem of match points.
This is also a teacher of psychology: the above chart is a bus, to judge the car’s direction of travel.
Some students said that the left and right, some say, but no one has asked about the reasons stand up to scrutiny. Or the teacher announced the answer to the question: should be a car left the road, as vehicles passage on the right side, while in the car door on the other side, the cars are on the left.
With the car door so it has the direction, it is because the door of the car to a location and find themselves in society, the right location, we will have a direction in life.
If the title of life, there are a thousand questions solution, a different attitude towards life, you will have a different answer!
