In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education dont. It seems that the purpose* of education is to make people get jobs. But not all the people agree with this idea.Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education in order to make more money in the future. This was probably one of the earliest purposes of education. In fact, if education is just a way to make a living, people dont need to spend so much time in school. They can get education for a living in a short time. Subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone. And people dont have to learn maths and languages so carefully. So it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.So what is education for? Education is well-rounded and it should improve a man in many ways. 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 only reason.50 . People with better education usually _.Ahave fewer chance to choose a good jobBhave more chances to get a good jobCmake less money than othersDspend the best years making money51 . The earliest education was probably to _.Ateach a man to think creativelyBteach people to read good booksCimprove a man in many waysDhelp people make more money52 . What does the underlined word “well-rounded” in Paragraph 3 mean in Chinese?A圆满的B崭新的C全面的D公平的53 . It is expected that educated people will be able to _.Awrite good books by themselvesBlearn all the subjects very wellCtake an interest in the worldDlead a richer life than others54 . The passage mainly tells us that _.Amaking a living is not the only purpose of education.Bpeople can get education in a short time.Cpeople should study hard to get better paying jobs.Dall subjects are very important for a way of living.六、阅读判断阅读理解Jane is a nice woman.

So dont wait for Mothers Day or Fathers Day to say sweet things to your parents.“I miss you all the time.” Although you are busy, dont forget to call your parents and tell them how much you miss them when they are not around.“I thank you for all your efforts.” Maybe you havent thanked them in words, but you surely did it in your mind. Hug(拥抱) them and tell them how much you thank them for their efforts. You cant possibly give back everything theyve done for you, but this small act will make them feel special.“Im sorry.” You might have said things that hurt them deeply, but they still believe in you and continue to shower their love on you. You may want to go back in time and make everything right. But since that cant happen, all you can do is to say sorry from the bottom of your heart.“Thank you for making me what Im today.” You can never thank them enough for this. Theyve always been your strength to move forward in life. They have taught you all the small and big things about life. Let them know they are the real heroes in your life.“You are great role models.” Your parents have been great role models and you should always respect them. They always encourage you to work hard and become a successful man in life. Even though you may have lost in a race or failed an exam, they were and still are your number one fans. 阅读以上信息，用恰当的词完成下面表格，每空一词。Things you must say to your parents before its too lateIntroductionYou 74 . express your thanks for your parents efforts and love.You dont say sweet things to them until some special days.What to say“I miss you all the time.” 75 . to phone your parents though you have no time.“I thank you for all your efforts.”Show your thanks for their efforts to give you the best life possible.A small act like a hug will mean everything to them.“Im sorry.”Your parents will always love you 76 . you may hurt them before.
