Words of the Tao Answer Key

In this matching activity, students explore ten core philosophical terms from C.S. Lewis’s The Abolition of Man. Each definition is presented out of order, and students must correctly pair each term with its corresponding definition. This exercise helps learners grasp Lewis’s key ideas such as objective value, relativism, and the Tao, reinforcing their understanding of moral philosophy and abstract reasoning. By analyzing the meanings of complex concepts and their relationships, students enhance their vocabulary, comprehension, and ability to synthesize philosophical arguments.
