In the Adler and Van Doren’s essay titled “The Activity and Art of Reading‚” we are asked to respond to the conclusion that a teacher can help the students‚ but the student “must do the learning.” His argument‚ for me‚ seems to be a bit difficult to follow and yet I found myself nodding my head at the same time.

"The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" written by James Thurber and the story of "Rip Van Winkle" written by Washington Irving are similar in many ways.
