IV. Read the following passages and choose the best answer for each blank. (30%)

A

Have you ever asked yourself why children go to school? You probably say that they go to learn their own language and other languages,arithmetic,geography, history,science and all the other subjects. That is quite true,but why do they learn these things? And are these things all that they learn at school?

We spend our children to school to prepare them for themselves. They learn their own language so that they know,and understand what others tell them. They learn foreign languages in order to be able to benefit from what people in other countries

have written and said,and in order to make people from other countries understand what they themselves mean. They learn arithmetic in order to be able to measure and count things in their daily life,geography in order to know something about the world around them,and history to know about the human beings they meet every day. Nearly everything they study at school has practical use in their life,but is that the only reason why they go to school?

No. There is more in education than just learning facts. We go to school above all to learn how to learn,so that,when we have left school,we can continue to learn. A man who really knows how to learn will be successful,because whenever he has to do something new which he has never had to do before,he will rapidly teach himself how to do it in the best way. The uneducated person,on the other hand,is either unable to do something new,or does it badly. The purpose of school,therefore,is not just to teach languages,arithmetic,geography,etc. ,but to teach pupils the way to learn.

( )l. In order to make yourself understood by people from other countries,you should learn _____________ .

A.modern science

B.history and geography
