Passage Three
Education is not an end, but a means to an end. In other words, we do not educate children only for the purpose of educating them; our purpose is to prepare them for life. As soon as we realize this fact, we will understand that it is very important to choose a system of education which will really prepare children for life. It is not enough just to choose the first system of education one finds, or to continue with one's old system of education without examining it to see whether it is in fact suitable or not.
In many 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 far larger number of people with university degrees than there are jobs for them to fill. Because of their degrees, they refuse to do what they consider "low" work; and, in fact, work with the 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 will die if we have no food. If no one cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our houses, we would have terrible diseases in our towns. In countries where there are no servants because everyone is ashamed to do such work, scientists have to waste much of their time doing housework.
In fact, when we say that all of us must be educated to prepare for life, it means that we must be educated in such a way that, firstly, each of us can do whatever job is suited to his brain and ability, and secondly, we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society, and it is very bad to be ashamed of one's work, or to scorn someone else's. Only such a type of education can be called valuable to society.
44. Education is______.
A. a purpose
B. a means
C. fashionable
D. the first system
第3题:
For years people have been saying that the railways are dead. We all keep hearing that trains are slow, that they lose money, that they’re dying. But this is far from the true. In these days of expensive oil, the railways have become highly competitive with motorcars and planes. If you want to carry people or goods from place to place, they’re cheaper than planes. And they have much in common with planes. A plane goes in a straight line and so does a railway. What is more, a railway takes you from the heart of a city center. It doesn’t hold you up as a car does, in endless traffic jams. And a single train can carry goods which no plane or motorcar could ever do.
Far from being dead, the railways are very much alive. Modern railway lines give you a smooth, untroubled journey. Where else can you eat well, sleep in comfort, feel safe and enjoy the scene while you are traveling at speed at the same time? And we are only at the beginning. For we have just entered the age of super-fast trains, trains traveling at 150 miles an hour and more. Soon we will be wondering why we spent so much on motorways we can’t use because we have not enough money to buy the oil and planes we can’t fly in for the same reason.
1. Some people think the railways are dead for many reasons EXCEPT that ____.
A. planes and motorcars have taken the place of trains
B. oil is expensive today
C. trains are slow
D. railways lose money
2. The writers idea seems to be that ______.
A. we can do without railways
B. trains have much in common with motorcars and planes
C. motorcars and planes are not as good as trains
D. trains are as good as motorcars and planes
3. According to the writer, which of the following is NOT the advantage of railways?
A. It is cheaper to travel by train than by plane.
B. Super-fast trains travel even faster than planes.
C. The railway station is usually at the center of a city.
D. A train carries more goods than a motorcar or plane does.
4. The writer thinks that the railways, far from being dead, are very much alive because ___________.
A. we can have a smooth and untroubled journey
B. we’ll not have enough money to fly everywhere
C. we can now travel in super-fast trains
D. all of the above
5. The best title for this passage may be ________.
A. The Best Choice: Train, Motorcar or Plane
B. The Dying Railways
C. Super-fast Trains in the Future
D. Not the End, But the Beginning

B
The world is not only hungry,it is also thirsty for water. this may seem strange to you,since nearly 75% of the earth is covered with water. But about 97% of this water is sea water.Man can only drink and use the other 3% fresh water that comes from rivers,lakes,under-ground and other places. And we cannot even use all of that,because some of this fresh water has been made dirty.
At the moment,this small amount(数量) of fresh water is still enough for us. However,our need for water is getting greater and greater. Only if we take steps to solve this problem now,we can get away from a serious world water shortage later on. The people of the world cannot have an enjoyable life without enough clean water.
On one hand we should stop wasting this little water of ours,on the other hand we should find ways to reuse it,but this has not been done widely.
Today,in most large cities,water is used only once and it then returns to the sea or runs into underground places.lf we can make it clean again,it can be used once more just as if it were fresh from a spring.
But even if large cities reuse its water,we still would not have enough in the future. Where.could we turn to next for water? To the ocean! How can we do to make use of this great a-mount of sea water? We can take the salt from the water to make it fresh.
So if we take all these steps,we'll be in no danger of drying up!
( )26. Why does the writer say that the world is thirsty for water?
A. The amount of fresh water is really very small.
B. The people of the world waste too much water.
C. The people of the world have to drink a lot of water every day.
D. There are too many people in the world needing water.
