Schooling and Education

It is commonly believed in the United States that school is where people go to get an education. Nevertheless,it has been said that today children interrupt their education to go to school.The distinction between schooling and education implied by this remark is important.Education is much more open-ended and all-inclusive than schooling. Education knows no bounds. It can take place anywhere,whether in the shower or in the job,whether in a kitchen or on a tractor. It includes both the formal learning that takes place in schools and the whole universe of informal learning.The agents of education can range from a revered grandparent to the people debating politics on the radio,from a child to a distinguished scientist.
Whereas schooling has a certain predictability,education quite often produces surprises.A chance conversation with a stranger may lead a person to discover how little is known of other religions.People are engaged in education from infancy on.Education,then,is a very broad,inclusive term. It is a lifelong process,a process that starts long before the start of school,and one that should be an integral part of one's entire life.Schooling,on the other hand,is a specific,formalized process,whose general pattern varies little from one setting to the next.
Throughout a country,children arrive at school at approximately the same time,take assigned seats,are taught by an adult,use similar textbooks,do homework,take exams,and so on.The slices of reality that are to be learned,whether they are the alphabet or an understanding of the workings of government,have usually been limited by the boundaries of the subject being taught. For example,high school students know that they are not likely to find out in their classes the truth about political problems in their communities or what the newest filmmakers are experimenting with. There are definite conditions surrounding the formalized process of schooling.

Schooling can be predictable,while education may bring surprises.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned

参考答案

参考解析
解析：从第一段前三句话我们知道上学与受教育是完全不同的两回事。因此本句表述是错误的。
从第一段“It can take place anywhere...”我们知道受教育是不受地点限制的，在任何地方都可以接受教育。因此本句表述是正确的。
从第二段第一句话我们知道上学是循规蹈矩、可以预测的；而受教育则不受限制，会带来惊喜。因此本句表述是正确的。
从第二段倒数第二句话我们知道受教育要比上学开始早的多，但是文章并没有提具体应该在几岁。
从最后一段第一句话我们知道在同一个国家，学生上学的时间是几乎相同的。因此本句表述是错误的。
从最后一段倒数第二句我们知道学校所教授的课程之间是界限分明的，并且有些脱离实际。因此本句表述是正确的。
虽然作者在字里行间都表达出对受教育而不是上学的偏爱，但是文章中并未提到让孩子接受教育停止上学。

考题 共用题干 Marriage Advertisements in IndiaEvery Sunday morning millions of Indians settle down with a cup of tea and special weekend issues of their newspapers,just as Americans do.But here,with the marriage sea-son approaching,many of them quickly to a Sunday feature that is particularly Indian-the-columns of marriage advertisements in which young people look for husbands and wives.This is relatively modern change in the age-old custom of the arranged marriage.The thousands of advertisements published each week increasingly reflect social changes that coming to this traditional society.For example,although women are still described in terms of appearance, or skill in“the wifely arts,”information about her earning power is entering more and more of the advertisements.This reflects the arrival in India of the working wife.Divorce,which used to be almost unheard of in India,is sometimes now mentioned in the advertisements as in the case of a woman whose advertisement in New Delhi newspaper explained that had been“the innocent party” when her marriage broke up.Because the custom of the dowry(marriage payment)is now illegal,some advertise-ments say“no dowry”,or“simple marriage”,which means the same thing.However,the fathers of many bridegrooms still require it.In a land where light skin is often regarded as socially preferible,many also require that a woman have a“wheat-color” complexion or that a man be“tall,fair and handsome”.Advertisements are placed and eagerly read by a wide range of people in the upper classes,mostly in cities.Many of them receive dozens of answers.“There's nothing embarrassing about it,”explained a Calcutta businessman advertising a son-in-law.“It's just another way of broadening the contacts and increase the possibility of doing the contacts and increasing the possibilities of doing the best one for one's daughter.”Because of high unemployment and a generally poor standard of living here,one of the best attractions a marriage advertisement can offer is a permit to live abroad,especially in Canada or the United States.A person who has one can get what he wants.One recent Sunday in Madras,for example,a Punjabi engineer living in San Francisco advertised for a“beautiful slim bride with lovely features knowing music and dance.”And a man whose advertisement said that he held an American immigration permit was able to say, only girls from rich,well-connected families need apply.The word“one” in“A person who has one can get what he wants”refers to good at-tractionA:RightB:WrongC:Not mentioned

考题 共用题干 Local Newspapers in Britain1. Britain has a large circulation（发行量）of the national newspapers. The Daily Mirror and The Daily Express both sell about 4 million copies each day.On average,every family will buy one newspaper in the morning,and take two or three on Sundays.2. Local newspapers are just as popular as the national ones in Britain.Local papers have a weekly circulation of 1 3 million.Nearly every town and country area has its own paper,and almost every local paper is financially holding its own.Many local newspapers are earning good profits.3. Local newspapers have their special characteristics.They mainly satisfy interest in local events-births,weddings,deaths,council meetings,and sports.Editors often rely on a small staff of people who know the district well.Clubs and churches in the neighborhood regularly supply these papers with much local news.Local news does not get out of date as quickly as national news .If there is no room for it in this week's edition,a news item can be held over until the following week.4. The editor of a local newspaper never forgets that the success of any newspaper depends on advertising.For this reason,he is keen to keep the good will of local businessmen.If the newspaper sells well with carefully chosen news items to attract local readers,the businessmen will be grateful to the paper for the opportunity of keeping their products in the public eye.5. Local newspapers seldom comment on problems of national importance,and editors rarely take sides on political questions.But they can often provide service to the community in expressing public feeling on local issues.A newspaper can sometimes persuade the council to take action to improve transport,provide better shopping facilities,and preserve local monuments and places of interest. Paragraph 2______A: Keeping Good Relations with Local BusinessmenB: Service Provided by Local NewspapersC: Large Circulation of the National NewspapersD: Special Features of Local NewspapersE: Power of Local NewspapersF: Popularity of Local Newspapers

考题 共用题干 第三篇KnittingMy mother knew how to knit（编织）,but she never taught me.She assumed,as did many women of her generation,that knitting was no longer a skill worth passing down from mother to daughter.A combination of feminism（女权主义）and consumerism（消费主义） made many women feel that such homely accomplishments were now out of date.My Grandmother still knitted,though,and every Christmas she made a pair of socks for my brother and me, of red wool（毛线）.They were the ones we wore under our ice skates （冰鞋）,when it was really important to have warm feet.Knitting is a nervous habit that happens to be productive.It helped me quit smoking by giving my hands something else to do.It is wonderful for depression because no matter what else happens,you are creating something beautiful.Time spent in front of the television or just sitting is no longer time wasted.I love breathing life into the patterns.It's true magic,finding a neglected,dog-eared （翻旧了的）old book with the perfect snowflake design,buying the same Germantown wool my grandmother used,in the exact blue to match my daughter's eyes,taking it on the train with me every day for two months,working enthusiastically to get it done by Christmas, staying up late after the stockings are filled to sew in the sleeves and weave in the ends.Knitting has taught me patience.I know that if I just keep going,even if it takes months,there will be a reward.When I make a mistake,I know that anger will not fix it, and that I just have to go back and start over again.People often ask if I would do it for money,and the answer is always a definite no.In the first place,you could not pay me enough for the hours I put into a sweater.But more important,this is an activity I keep separate from such considerations.I knit to cover my children and other people I love in warmth and color.I knit to give them something earthly that money could never buy:Knitting gives my life an alternative rhythm to the daily deadline.By day I can write about Northern Ireland or the New York City Police Department and get paid for it,but on the train home,surrounded by people with laptops,I stage my little rebellion.I take out my old knitting bag and join the centuries of women who have knitted for love.Why did many women feel that knitting was out of date?A:Because their mothers had not taught them.B:Because they were influenced by feminism and consumerism.C:Because they were feminists.D:Because they were consumerists.
