Nowadays there is less and less contact
between the old and the young. There are many
reasons for this, but the result is the
same: increasing numbers of children without
grandparents and old people who have no
contact with children. And more old people who
are lonely and feel useless, along with
more and more families with young children who
desperately need more support. It's a
major problem in many societies.
That's
why inter-generational programmes, designed to
bring the old and the young together,
are growing in popularity all over the
world, supported by UNESCO and other local and
international organizations. There are
examples of successful
schemes
（方案）
all over the
world. Using young people to teach IT
skills to older people is one obvious example.
Using
old people as volunteer
assistants in schools is another, perhaps reading
with children who
need extra attention.
One successful scheme in France is
combining a residential home for the elderly with
a
nursery school in the same building.
The children and the residents eat lunch together
and
share activities such as music,
painting, gardening and caring for the pets which
the
residents are encouraged to keep.
In the afternoons, the residents enjoy reading or
telling
stones to the children and, if
a child is feeling sad or tired, there is always a
kind lap to sit on
and a
cuddle
（依偎）
. There are trips
out and birthday parties too.
The
advantages are enormous for everyone concerned.
The children are happy because they
get
a lot more individual attention and respond well
because someone has lime for them.
They
also learn that old people are not different or
frightening in any way. And of
course,
they see illness and death and learn to accept
them. The residents are happy
because
they feel useful and needed. They are more active
and more interested in life when
the
children are around and they take more interest in
their appearance too. And the staff
are
happy because they see an improvement in the
physical and psychological health of the
residents and have an army of
assistants to help with the children.

4. In
college, I was taught an elegant theory of
chemical combination based on excess
electrons going into holes in the
orbital shell of a neighbouring
atom
．
But what about
diatomic compounds like oxygen gas?
Don't ask; students aren't ready to
know
．
In
physics,
in biology, in any other science classes,
students frequently get that answer
too
．
It's
time to trust students to handle doubt and
diversity in science
．
Actually, students are
starting to
act
．
They have shamed their
seniors into including more diverse contributors
as
faculty members and role
models
．
Young scholars
rudely ask their superiors why they fail
to address the extinction crises
clarified by their research
．
The inherited authoritarian
political
structures of science education are becoming
lame
﹣﹣
but still remain
largely
unchanged from the old school
days
．
A
narrow, rigid education does not prepare anyone
for the complexities of scientific
research, applications and
policy
．
If we discourage
students from inquiring into the real
nature of scientific truths, or
exploring how society shapes the questions that
researchers
ask, how can we prepare
them to maintain public trust in science in our
﹣
truth
world?
Diversity and doubt produce creativity; we must
make room for them, and stop
guiding
future scientists into narrow specialties that
value technique over
thought
．
In
science, even foundational building blocks can be
questioned
．
The unifying
patterns
of the periodic table are now
questioned under closer
examination
．
Some scientists
now
wonder whether the concept of
biological
insight, and whether it
should therefore be
abandoned
．
However, such a
decision would
试卷第

页，总

页
affect
conservation policy, in which identification of
endangered species is
crucial
﹣﹣
so it is
not just an issue for basic
science
．
Science students generally remain unaware that
concepts such as elements and species
are contested or are even
contestable
．
In school,
college and beyond, curricula highlight
the technical and hide the
reflective
．
Public arguments
among scientists often presume
that
every problem has just one
solution
．
Nonetheless, uncertain advice on complex issues
should be a warning that, from a future
perspective, today's total scientific
consensus on some policy issue might have been the
result of stubbornness, a conflict of
interest or worse
．
Just as a
healthy democracy
accommodates dissent
and dissonance, the collective consciousness of
science would do
well to embrace doubt
and diversity
．
This could
start with teaching science as a
great,
flawed, ongoing human achievement, rather than
as a collection of cut
﹣
and
﹣
dried
eternal
（永久的）
truths
．
I recall a legendary chemistry
professor who was not skilful at getting classroom
demonstrations to
work
﹣﹣
but discussing what
went wrong helped his students to
thrive
．
A
mathematician friend let pupils discuss every
statement in the textbook until all
were satisfied
．
They did very well in exams, and taught
themselves when he was
absent
．
Treating
people at all levels as committed thinkers, whose
asking teaches us all, is
the key to
tackling the challenges to science in the

5. In 2009 a group of parents in
Lymington started sharing worries about their
children's
money
﹣
management
skills
．
Pocket money was now
stored in a building society rather
than a piggy bank
（储蓄罐）
; household shopping
was done online; the children rarely
saw their parents handling
cash
．
They were spending
online, too
．
________
．
How, then, were
children to learn its value?
The
answer they came up with was GoHenry, an app now
available in America as well as
Britain
．
It is
designed to help young people learn good spending
habits through real
﹣
world
money activities
．
Parents
sign up with their own bank accounts and pay a
monthly
fee of ?2.99 or
﹩
3.99 for each child aged
six or over
．
Adults and
children download
separate
versions
．
Parents can
schedule pocket money and set
chores
．
When those are
marked as done, the child is paid the
agreed amount
．
Parents can
see what the child has
bought and
where
．
And they can choose
where the card can be used: in shops, online or
at ATMs
．
Children get cards printed with
their name
．
They can put
money in savings pots, view
their
spending and balances, and set savings
targets
．
dollars
for a friend's birthday in four weeks' time, or
set a goal at 12 to have
﹩
2,
000 to buy
a car at age 18,
．
much to save
each week to meet their
goal
．
A big
benefit of such apps is that they inspire family
conversations about
money
．
According
to the latest research, more than half of British
parents find the subject
hard to
discuss with their children
．
And yet most agree that children's attitudes to
money
are formed in their early
years
．
Some
GoHenry customers are wealthy parents who worry
that their children will grow up
with
little knowledge of money
．
Others have slim incomes but regard the app as a
preparation for their child's
future
．
Some say that they
have been in debt and want their
children to avoid that mistake when
they grow up; others that the app is
cost
﹣
effective
because their children learn to plan
spending
．
Even though young
people no longer touch
and hold money,
they can still be taught to handle it
well
