27、for the weekend but had to return to our jobs on Monday. Local relatives would help Dad get home from hospital and look after him. But I longed to be able to let him know that we cared about him too, even when we werent with him.Then I remembered a family tradition when our children were small. When

28、 leaving our grandparents home after a visit, each child would write a love note to their grandparents. We hid notes in oat box, under a hairbrush or next to the phone or even in the microwave oven. For days, our grandparents would smile as they discovered these reminders of our love. So as I tidied

29、 Dads kitchen and made up a bed for him downstairs in the living room, I wrote some notes. Some were practical, Dad, I put the food in the fridge so it wouldnt spoil. Some expressed my love, “Dad, I hope you will sleep well in your new bed.” Most notes were downstairs where he would stay for several

35、reasoning. We achieve knowledge passively by being told by someone else. Most of the learning that takes place in the classroom and the kind that happens when we watch TV or read newspapers or magazines is passive. Conditioned as we are to passive learning, its not surprising that we depend on it in

36、 our everyday communication with friends and co-workers. Unfortunately, passive learning has a serious problem.

38、compared. Typically, the original message has changed. Thats what happens in daily life. The simple fact that people repeat a story in their own words changes the story.
