Real knowledge comes from practice
Have you watched the film “Journey to the center of the earth Ⅱ: The Mysterious Island”? I watched the film last week. The director of the film is Brad Peyton. The film uses 3D cameras in North Carolina and Hawaii. The main actor in the film is Dwayne Johnson and Josh Huteherson. The story happened in an American family.

The children in the family like exploration. He knows the “Mysterious Island” from the book. He is very interesting in that place, so he is ready to go to the island with his father. They came to the place as said in the book, but there is nothing. They feel a little sad. At that moment, a tornado brings them to an unknown place. It is a beautiful world with many p了ants, animals. They have found the “Mysterious Island”.

Unfortunately, this island will sink after a few days, so they have to leave this. They cross the whole island with many difficulties. They have to sleep with plants, and fight with the biggest animals. Finally, they find a ship and leave the “Mysterious Island”.

From this story, we can see many philosophies of life. If they do not take action, even if they know this island, they would not find it. It just likes our life. You will do not know the truth without any action if you face a question. If they have not the spirit of exploration, maybe they would not find the “Mysterious Island”. In our daily life, if we have not the spirit of exploration, we would not have the new achievements in new field.

In my opinion, we should learn from the film stars. No matter what job we have, we should have the spirit of exploration and take action by ourselves. As the saying goes “Real knowledge comes from practice.”

    The group of boys who, once had innocent and pure lives turned into a group of monsters who wreaked havoc against anyone who opposed them. Fear led the boys to make illogical choices and the overall thirst for power and dominance caused them to act uncivilized to one another. After being on the island for so long, the boys became aware that it wasn’t crashing on an island that drove them to savagery, but that it was having to deal with each other that led them to the lifestyle they lived. The deterioration of morality among the boys caused them to act in ways they wouldn’t have if they hadn’t crashed on the island. As a group, the boys were not able to live in peace with each other due to their fear and greediness for control and that soon led to the downfall of their…

    All of them are interested in exploring the island, they work together to explore the untrodden land, to find more food, places to create shelter, and a place to create more signals for help. “...fear can’t hurt you any more than a dream. There aren’t any beasts to be afraid of on this island...serve you right if something didn’t get you, you useless lot of cry-babies”. This quote shows that the littles ones appear to be useless in the eyes of the older children that are there. They seem to get in the way and since they are afraid, it gets in the way of exploration.

    As individuals we all have different experiences throughout life. Depending on what our experiences embrace will determine our perceptions of discoveries. Once discovery is created, previous perceptions of the world and our interactions with others may be reassessed. Conversely, having preconceived ideas and expectations may limit the individual’s experiences of discovery. Absence of preconceived ideas and expectations of the world and others could allow for more meaningful experiences. These aspects of discovery are portrayed throughout Nasht’s documentary Frank Hurley – The Man Who Made History and Judith Wright’s poem Moving South.…

The island is full of life - there are animals and lots of fruits to make food of. It has an idyllic effect which, however, is deceptive. - The fruits cause diarrhoea and stomach-aches. There is also the heat which is overwhelming. Some “littluns” are afraid of the island because of its alleged beasties, and therefore have nightmares. One part of the island is the jungle which shows the dangerous side of the island. The “boy with a mark”, presumably the first dead corpse, goes missing after he wa last seen entering it. - The “good” and the “evil” sides of the island are representative of human beings. Golding’s intention is “to reveal the potentiality of evil in any society and to show the end of innocence and the darkness of man’s heart.” - The island shows that besides mankind, nature can also change its face. But often changes in nature are caused by mankind. They boys make a fire in order to be rescued, but they do not notice that they destroy nature. Only Piggy is aware of the importance of nature and its relationship with human beings. - The island can also be seen as a location of an experiment. The children have to build up a society without adults, so they are dependent on themselves. But the experiment fails. Jack, once chapter chorister in the choir, becomes a cruel murderer with features which are similar to a dictator’s.…

    From the beginning of the novel, the boys struggle with fear of the unknown. They fear what they cannot see, the parts of the island they haven’t explored, the mysterious beast, and of course, though they may not realize it at first, they fear the damage they may do to one another. All of these have some “unknown” element to them; they can’t see in the dark, they don’t know what’s on the island, they’re unsure of what the beast really is, and they’re ignorant of the depths of their own violent…

    Education is the transmittance of knowledge or skills from a source to students and other learners. There are two ways of transmitting knowledge, via books or by offering practical experience. Unlike the practical experience that hands-on activities provide, books are more passive and the authors tend to transmit their knowledge or skills uni-directionally to readers. Practical experience is sometimes important in certain fields to give the big idea and has multiple areas of interpretation and learning experiences.…
