TEXT : Education is not an end , but a means to an end In other words , we 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 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 diseases in your towns
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 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

A education can settle most of the world ‘s problems B free education for all probably leads to a perfect world C free education won’t help to solve social problems D all the social problems can’t be solved by education 47 The writer wants to prove that :
A our society needs all kinds of work B our society needs free education for all C a farmer is more important than a professor
D people with high education refuse to what they think “low “ work 48 According to the passage :
A work with hands is dirty and shameful B work with hands is low work
C work with hands is the most important D we can’t regard work with hands as low work 49 The purpose of education is ………
A to choose a system of education B to prepare children mainly for their future work C to let everyone receive education fit for him D to build a perfect world
