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 school or on 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 of- ten produces surprises. A chance conversation with a stranger may lead a person to discover how little is known about a religion. 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 genera] 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 arc 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. [br] What is the main idea of the passage?
选项
A、The best schools teach a wide variety of subjects.
B、Education and schooling are quite different experiences.
C、Students benefit from schools, which require long hours and homework.
D、The more years students go to school the better their education is.
答案
B
解析
此题为主旨题。该文为议论文,开篇就提出对教育和学校教育的两种观点。在接下来的两段里,作者对这两个观点分别进行了论述,因此B项为正确选项。A项作者未谈及。C项只涉及了“school education”,却没有谈及“education”,不全面。D项文中未作比较。
