【高中·阅读理解·The Art of Asking】
Most of us ask questions badly. We ask to confirm what we already believe, or we ask in a way that shows we already know the answer.
Good questions do the opposite. They admit that the speaker knows something we do not. This is harder than it sounds, because it requires us to give up, for a moment, the comfort of being right.
A doctor who asks "Does it hurt here?" hears yes or no. A doctor who asks "What does the pain do during the day?" hears a story, and the story often contains the diagnosis.
The same is true outside medicine. The quality of our relationships is largely the quality of the questions we are willing to ask — and to wait through the silence that follows.
