When the final bell rang I left the school. But 45 minutes later, I didn't know where I was. I couldn't call Thomas became he was at work, and my mom wouldn't be any help. I finally decided to knock (敲) at a door.
"How may I help you, dear?" an old woman asked.
"I'm new to town and I was walking home and I got lost. Could you please tell me the right direction? I live on Shay Street."
"Oh, you went the wrong way. Shay Street is about five miles in the other direction."
"Thank you very much." I turned to leave, but the old woman called out to me.
"You aren't planning on walking home, are you? Let me get my grandson to drive you home." She turned to call into the house. A few minutes later, a boy appeared at the door.
"Kale, bring this sweet girl home. She lives on Shay Street. And bring back some bread and cheese."
"Sure," he smiled.
The boy drove me home and left before I said "thank you". When I opened the door, Thomas was singing and making dinner in the kitchen. He was never home for dinner because of work.
"Hey, Thomas," I said happily, "what's the occasion (场合)?"
"Well, I wanted to hear all about your first day of the school."

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 to get 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.
1.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 choose jobs
D. have fewer chances to get a good job
2. The earliest education was probably to __________.
A. make a man lead a better life
B. teach a man to write and think
C. make people get a way of living
D. teach people to read good books
3.It is expected that educated people will be able to _________.
A. accept education as a way of living
B. take an interest in the whole world
C. develop their abilities to make plays
D. learn subjects like language and math
4.The passage mainly tells us that _________.
A. education should make a man improve
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

While we are still children ,most of us live at home with our parents, more or less peacefully . But as we become teenagers , things change ,and we begin to grow apart from our parents . This means we are almost ready to leave the house where we grew up and make a new home of our own .
All humans must do this ,but they don’t all do it in the same way . If ,for instance ,you belong to a primitive tribe (原始部落) ，then as you grew up ,you’d learn the skills you needed as an adult---how to catch fish ,how to keep the house and look after children . You would be ready to marry in your early teens and you would build a house and live near your family in the village.
This seems a very old way of life , but it is what humans have been used to through hundreds of years. And it is what we are still used to in the 21st century ,for man hasn’t changed in the short time since he became civilized(文明的). But could you leave home and look after yourself during the teen years ? Most people would not do very well . Why ? Because although man hasn’t changed very much , the society he lives in has changed greatly ,which means that we have to learn more and more before we are ready to leave our parents’ shelter( 居所 ) and live alone .
However ,sometimes it is very frustrating to live at parents’ home . Parents can be very upset about late nights ,criticizing friends and always saying that we are noisy and dirty . But we still need our emotional (情感的) shelter till we finish our studies , and that is why we usually stay in our parents’ home until we feel grown up enough to deal with living alone .
1.When does the relationship with parents start changing ?
A. When we are children .
B. When we become teenagers .
C. When we are alone .
D. When we get married .
2.For most teenagers of the 21st century ,making a new home of their own may be ________.
A. difficult B. unimportant
C. impossible D. quite easy
3.Why must we know more to be able to live alone ?
A. Because we are becoming less talented .
B. Because our society has changed a lot .
C. Because not enough is taught in our schools.
D. Because man has never really been civilized.
4. From the passage ,we know living at parents’ home when we become teenagers _______ .
A. is always pleasant
B. must be very exciting
C. makes us feel lonely
D. may be annoying
