It is true that people with better education are usually able to get better paying jobs. In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don’t. It seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs. But this isn’t accepted by all people.

Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life getting education only for a way of living. This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education. In fact, if education is just a way of making a living, people don’t need to spend so much time in school. People can get education for a living in a short time. Subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone. Even language and math need not be taught in detail (詳細(xì)地), either. Here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.

Education is well-rounded and it is mainly for improving a man. It is not only to teach him to speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative thinking and other abilities. After that, it is to make him a wise man and thankfully enjoy the achievements of human. Education is to make a man lead a better life. Educated people are expected to be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and most of all take an interest in the world.

I would agree that making a good living is an important reason for education, but certainly not the most important or the main reason.

1.People with little education usually_______.

A. spend a long time in school

B. have a good chance to get a job

C. spend the best years to choose jobs

2.The earliest education was probably to_______.

A. make a man lead a better life

A.現(xiàn)成的 B.嶄新的 C.公平的 D.全面的

4.It is expected that educated people will be able to________.

A. accepted education as a way of living

B. take an interest in the world

C. develop their abilities to watch plays

D. learn subjects like language and math

5.The passage mainly tells us that______ .

A. education is mainly for improving a man

B. people can get education in a short time

C. people should be able to get better paying jobs

D. all subjects are so important for a way of living

As a child, I was really afraid of the dark and of getting lost. These fears were very real and caused me some uncomfortable moments.

Maybe it was the strange way things looked and sounded in my own room at night that scared me so much. There was never complete darkness, but always a streetlight or passing car lights, which made clothes on the back of a chair take on the shape of a wild animal. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw the curtains(窗簾) seem to move when there was no wind. A very low sound in the floor would seem a hundred times louder than in the day. My imagination (想象) would run wild, and my heart would beat fast. I would lie very still so that the "enemy(敵人) " would not discover me.

Another of my childhood fears was that I would get lost, especially on the way home from school. Every morning I got on the school bus right near my home. That was no problem. After school, though, when all the buses were lined up along the street, I was afraid that I would get in the wrong one and be taken to some other strange places. On school or family trips to a park or a museum, I wouldn't let the leaders out of my sight.

Perhaps one of the worst fears of all I had as a child was that of not being liked or accepted by others. Being popular was so important to me then, and the fear of not being liked was a serious one.

One of the processes(過程) growing up is being able to realize and overcome our fears. Understanding the things that scared us as children helps us achieve greater success later in life.

1._________ would scare the author at night.

A. Streetlight and car lights B. Wild animals and enemies

C. Moving curtains and wind D. Strange sights and sounds

2.When she went to some other places, she would _________.

A. walk away without others

B. take a bus by herself

C. follow others closely

D. make sure not to take a wrong bus

3.Which of the following would be possibly true when she was a child?

A. She was usually popular among people.

B. She was always the leader of the others.

C. She always got poor grades.

D. She was not at all liked by others.
