26、 It is true that people with better education are usually able to get better paying jobs. In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don’t. It seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs. But this isn’t accepted by all people.

Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education only for a way of living. This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education. In fact, if education is just a way of making a living, people don’t need to spend so much time in school. People can get education for a living in a short time. Subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone. Even language and mathematics need not be taught in detail (详细地)，either. Here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.

Education is well-rounded and it is mainly for improving a man. 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 main reason.

【1】People with little education usually _______.

A．spend a long time in school

B．have a good chance to get a job

C．spend the best years choose jobs

D．have fewer chances to get a good job

【2】The earliest education was probably to __________.

A．make a man lead a better life

B．teach a man to write and think

C．make people get a way of living

D．teach people to read good books

【3】It is expected that educated people will be able to _________.

A．accept education as a way of living

B．take an interest in the whole world

C．develop their abilities to make plays

D．learn subjects like language and math

【4】The passage mainly tells us that _________.

A．education should make a man improve

B．people can get education in a short time

C．people should be able to get better paying jobs

D．all subjects are so important for a way of living

27、Fourteen-year-old Wang Fa won the championship in a recent tennis competition held in Guangzhou. But what has caught more attention is the way he carries his bats—using a bamboo pack basket. Many netizens (网民) have said that the basket is not just carrying his bats, but also his tennis dream.

When there was a chance to play tennis, Wang Fa expressed his willingness (乐意) to follow Zhang to Kunming for training. Zhang chose 10 children that time.

“Before I started to learn tennis, I had just stayed in my hometown and knew little about the outside world. Now I’ve travelled to many different parts of the country,” said Wang. “I’ll keep working hard. I hope I can be a member of the national team in the future and compete in global tournaments.”

28、   Nicolas Come is a nine-year-old boy. He was a picky(挑剔的) eater. He e【1】 disliked healthy foods and wouldn't go near most fruits and vegetables.

Nicolas' dad, Stephane, tried to think of ways to get Nicolas and his younger brother to eat more healthily. "I thought they would give more foods a chance if they grew the foods t【2】," says Stephane. So the family started a garden in their yard. They p【3】 strawberries, carrots, tomatoes, lettuce, potatoes, and many other fruits and vegetables. It worked. Nicolas learned to care for these foods and started t【4】 them. "I discovered that I like them a lot!" says Nicolas.

At the same time, Nicolas found that many kids were eating unhealthy foods. One day in his family's garden, Nicolas came up with an idea of w【5】 a book that would help other kids. His dad suggested a smartphone app (应用程序). Nicolas liked the idea and decided to start his own business.

Nicolas' parents helped him d【6】 a business plan. A group of app makers joined Nicolas' team. The app which was free was ready in May 2013. It helps children and f【7】 create meal plans with easy recipes (食谱). Nicolas shows kids how to prepare healthy food through his app, his website, and You Tube videos. Thousands of kids and parents are now his fans, and newspapers and TV shows have shared Nicolas' story.

Nicolas has plans to i【8】 his app and wants to add games that let kids get "healthy" or "unhealthy" points for food choices. He has a【9】 started putting "Nicolas' Seal of Approval (正式认可)" on restaurant menu items (项目). He explains, "It will help me and other kids find healthy, tasty foods in restaurants."

Nicolas likes hearing that other kids think his app is very cool. But what he likes best is, "I'm helping other kids g【10】 healthier. That's what I wanted to do."
