21、ledge either actively or passively. We achieve it actively by direct experience, by testing and proving an idea, or by reasoning. We achieve knowledge passively by being told by someone else.

23、re than hearsay and rumor. Did you ever play the game Rumor? It begins when one person writes down a message but doesnt show it to anyone. Then the person whispers it, word for word, to another person. That person, in turn, whispers it to still another, and so on, through all the people playing the
24、game. The last person writes down the message word for word as he or she hears it. Then the two written statements are 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. Then, too,
25、most people listen imperfectly. And many enjoy adding their own creative touch to a story, trying to improve on it, stamping(打上标记) it with their own personal style, Yet those who hear it think they know. This process is also found among scholars and authors: A statement of opinion by one writer may
26、be re-stated as a fact by another, who may in turn be quoted by yet another; and this process may continue, unless it occurs to someone to question the facts on which the original writer based his opinion or to challenge the interpretation he placed upon those facts.46. How do we achieve knowledge a

40、ur day for the things that really matter. Get Out of Bed EarlierIf you normally get up at 7:30 am., try getting up at 7:00 am. That halfhour might not sound like much, but it could be time that you use to exercise, to read that book youve been meaning to finish. _57_ Do the Important Tasks FirstOnce
41、 you get to work, get the important ones done first (not the easy ones, or even the urgent ones).
