     How would you like to study at an American university in China? 
        1 the news that New York University (NYU) is opening a campus on Chinese mainland, the
possibility of getting an American education is coming closer to a   2   .
     But how will Chinese students deal with a very different style of teaching?   3  that encourages
debate, discussion and critical thinking?
    You know how kids constantly ask questions? They have so much to learn and simply   4  
information. Asking questions _5_ they are curious.
   So   6   does that natural   7  become weaker? Not at kindergarten, nor at primary school. But
perhaps with puberty(青春期)     8   self-consciousness and a reluctance to draw attention to
yourself by asking the teacher questions.
       9  , that's a pity, because asking your teachers questions should be encouraged. After all, they've
been educated,   10  a lot more experience than you and perhaps possess a little wisdom.
    When I taught journalism at college in Scotland I   11  answering students' questions. Some of them
asked difficult ones. I didn't always know the answers. If I didn't, I'd admit   12  and try to find out
later.
   At university we were encouraged to challenge our peers and tutors. A student would prepare a
paper on a  subject and other students would    13     it. It was a way of  14    critical and logical
thinking.
   You can learn to think logically,  15  some of the more difficult problems would probably require
advanced math. Having a logical mind    can help develop critical thinking.
     My wife doesn't have a logical mind, but she does have emotional intelligence. An ability to
empathize(有同感) with people, relate to them and   16  their personalities is also important to
critical thinking.
     I can't claim to have   17  like her emotional intelligence, but I'd like to think some of it has
influenced me. If you can't   18   try to put yourself in someone else's  19  , how can you understand
their situation and their problems?
     So try to develop your powers of critical thinking.  20  books, films, music and newspapers. And
don't believe everything you read or see. Think for yourself.
