Imagine a boy from a small village in East Africa,who from a very early age
ask him what happened. Now that Daniel has been so rude to them,he feels like 8.__________ him. Calm Maybe they are too 7.________ on Daniel and should go to has been looking after cattle.At twelve years old he knows more about cattle than most of us.However,he has never been to school.Has this boy ever had any education?
Education is discovering about ourselves and about the people and things around us.All the people who care about us—our parents,brothers,sisters,friends—are our teachers.In fact,we learn something from everyone we meet.We start learning on the day we are born,not on the first day we go to school.Every day we have new experiences,like finding a bird’s nest,discovering a new street in our neighbourhood,making friends with someone we didn’t like before.New experiences are even more fun when we share them with other people.
Encouragement from the people around us enables us to explore things as much as possible.As we grow up,we begin to find out what we are capable of doing.We may be good at cooking,singing or playing football.We find this out by doing these things.Just think about cooking doesn’t tell us if we are good at it.
We learn so much just living from day to day.So why is school important?Of course we can learn some things better at home than at school,like how to do the shopping,and how to help old or disabled people who can’t do everything for themselves.At school,teachers help us to read and write.With their guidance,we begin to see things in different ways.
1.The writer takes the African boy as an example to show that________. A.African children are very poor B.some children are unlucky C.education takes many ways D.schools are of great importance 2.In the eyes of the writer________.
A.we have to learn from the people around us B.school is not important at all
C.only the people caring about us can teach us D.education takes place everywhere
3.One can find out what he is good at by________. A.the encouragement of people around B.the teachings of those he or she meets C.thinking of it when growing up D.trying and practicing it 4.The writer thinks that________.
A.school is not so important as our living places B.school enables us to understand the world in other ways C.school teaches us something useless at home D.school cannot prepare us for our daily lives
