Answer to Question 1

Answer to Question 2

Different cultures approach learning differently. Some cultures approach learning, and educators, with a feeling close to reverence. Learning and knowledge is something that you accept humbly. A professor, teacher, parent, or some other wise elder from the community should be consulted if
you want to receive knowledge. The learner could not possibly be presumed to create knowledge. As we know, throughout history a great deal of knowledge has been passed down to younger generations by wise elder generations. Other cultures approach learning in a radically different way. Just because everyone always believed something was true doesn't convince them at all that it is really true. If they want to know something, they do research, hold a focus group, or put together a think tank. They believe that learning is something to construct. Developmentally appropriate practice teaches us that children really do have to learn how to construct knowledge or they will be left in the lurch as they grow up in this fast-moving technological world. We must, however, still recognize the cultural importance of revering wise elders and respecting community traditions.

Drug abusers experience the following scenario: The pleasure given by their drug (or drugs) of choice is so strong that it is difficult to eradicate even after years of staying away from the substances involved. Certain triggers may cause a drug abuser to relapse. Research shows that long-term drug abuse results in significant changes in brain function that persist long after an individual stops using drugs. It is most important to realize that the same is true of not just illegal substances but alcohol and tobacco as well.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
