BBC World Have Your Say today: “ Life in China”
Every day, BBC News on TV, radio and online brings you stories from across the world. But what we want to hear are the stories that matter to you.
Have you got a story about life in China today? If you do, please put your story here.

I like traveling and I have traveled a lot around China. During the trip, I often find that a number of Chinese don’t have good public manners(举止). They always talk loudly on the phone and smoke everywhere. The worst is that they often break the rules in public. For example, when I traveled in Hong Kong in January this year, I saw a kid eating noodles on the underground, which is against the rules. However, the kid’s mother didn’t think he did wrong. Can you believe it? Let’s improve our public manners. (Mike, Shenzhen)

I am a 14-year-old boy from a poor village in Fuyang, Anhui Province. Like many other left-behind children(留守儿童) in China, l live with my grandparents now. My father went to work in Shanghai several years ago. Last year, my mother went there to care for him because his health is not as good as before. They tell me to listen to my grandparents and call me about twice a month to ask about my study. I really miss my parents and I hope I can afford to go to school in Shanghai. I think every child needs parents’ love and care. (Wu Peigen, Anhui Province)

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 math 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.
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 to choose jobs

D．have fewer chances to get a good job

The earliest education was probably to_______.

A．make a man lead a better life

C．make people get a way of living

D．teach people to read good books

A．现成的

B．崭新的

C．公平的

D．全面的

It is expected that educated people will be able to________.

A．accepted education as a way of living

B．take an interest in the world

C．develop their abilities to watch plays

D．learn subjects like language and math

The passage mainly tells us that______ .

A．education is mainly for improving a man

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
