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 getting 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.
| A．spend a long time in school |
| B．have a good chance to get a job |
| C．spend the best years to choose jobs |

阅读下面材料，从每题所给的三个选项（A、B和C）中，选出最佳选项。
In the months of December and January, China experienced some of the worst air pollution in its history. At times, Beijing’s Air Quality Index(AQI)was measured at 406. Any AQI reading over 150 is considered “unhealthy” and any reading over 300 is considered “hazardous.” In Shanghai, we had several days when the AQI neared 300. The PM2.5 readings were also high. PM2.5 refers to particulate (微粒的)matter smaller than 2.5 microns(微米) in diameter. These particles are small enough to get into the lungs and can cause cancer and other lung diseases.
China is now becoming acutely aware that the rush to development has come at a price and may be endangering the health of its citizens. This is something other countries have faced before. The U.K. used to be the most polluted country in the world. It wasn’t until London’s Big Smog of 1952 that people realized that air pollution was a real health hazard. Twelve thousand deaths were directly related to that “pea-souper(浓雾)” and it resulted in Parliament(英国议会)passing the Clean Air Act(《清洁空气法案》)of 1956.
China will no doubt pass similar laws. It’s a choice between wealth and health. As Beijingers and Shanghainese coughed their way through December and January, the choice may have become easier to make.
According to the following AQI, if you are in _________now, it is healthy for you.
A. Shanghai. B. Guangzhou. C. Beijing. Why did Parliament pass the Clean Air Act of 1956?
A. Thousands of people died because of the “pea-souper”.
B. The PM2.5 readings were very low in UK.

A. The U.K. is the most polluted country in the world now.
B. PM2.5 may cause cancer and other lung diseases.
C. China will not pass similar laws like the Clean Air Act.The underlined word “hazardous” means “______” in Chinese.
A. 危险的 B. 温和的 C. 健康的 According to the passage, why will China pass laws to make air cleaner?
A. It may help the country develop more rapidly.
B. People can’t make the choice between wealth and health.
C. People realize air pollution was a real health hazard.
