Education is not an end, but a mean is to an end In other words, we do not educate children only for the purpose of educating them Our purpose is to fit them for life In some modern countries it has, for some time, been fashionable to think that by free education for all – whether rich or poor, clever or stupid – one can solve all the problems of society and build a perfect nation But we can already see that free education for all is not enough; we find in such countries a large number of people with university degree; they refuse
to do what they think “low” work; and, in fact, work with hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries But we have only to think a moment to understand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is far more important than that of a professor; we can live without education, but we die if we have
no food If no one cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our house, we should get terrible
In fact, when we say that all of us must be educated to fit us for life, it means that we must be educated
in such a way that, firstly, each of us can do whatever work suited to our brains and ability and, secondly, that we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society, and that is very bad to be ashamed of one’s work Only such a type of education can be considered valuable to society
1 The writer of the passage thinks that _.
A education can settle most of the world’s problems B free education won’t help to solve social problems.
C free education for all probably leads to a perfect world D all the social problems can’t be solved by education.
2 The writer wants to prove that _.
A people with high education refuse to do what they think “low” work.
B our society needs all kinds of jobs.
C our society needs free education for all D a farmer is more important than a professor.
3 According to the passage _.
A we can’t regard work with hands as low work B work with hands is low work.
C work with hands is dirty and shameful D work with hands is the most important.
4 The purpose of education is _.
A to choose a system of education B to let everyone receive education fit for him
C to build a perfect world D to prepare children mainly for their future work
5 The passage tells us about _ of education.
