    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.
    【小题1】People with little education usually ____.

    A．spend a long time in schoolB．have a good chance to get a job

    A．make a man lead a better lifeB．teach a man to write and think
    C．make people get a way of livingD．teach people to read good books

    A．accept education as a way of living
    B．take an interest in the whole world

    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

             In the West, some people believe that personality can be predicted according to the time of the year the person was bor. From China comes the belief that the year of birth influences one’s personality. In the past century, a new belief ahs arisen: the idea that personality is related to one’s ABO blood type. People with blood type A, for example, are considered more likely to be serious, hard-working, and quiet, while people with blood type O are likely to be popular and outgoing, yet often unable to finish what they start. Though this belief continues to be strong, some people question whether it is true.

    The blood-type personality theory(理论) started in Japan in 1927 when Furukawa Takehi noticed personality similarities and differences among his workers. This idea soon went out of fashion, but was brought back by a Japanese television host named Toshitaka Nomi in the 1970s. The belief is still strong in Japan and is increasingly popular in neighboring countries. Some young Koreans have taken to the theory. A recent study showed 76 percent of Koreans aged between13 and 64 believing in the blood-type personality connection. Though most Asians might believe in the blood-type theory, for many it seems harmless and not something to be taken too seriously.

             Is the belief true? The scientists in Asia largely dismiss the belief as a modern-day superstition(迷信). Most studies have failed to find any strong connection between blood and personality. Generally, scientists warn against making predictions or important decisions based on this questionable theory.

    1.The writer uses blood type A and O as an example to explain ________.

             A. the difference between to two blood types

             B. the relationship between the two blood types

             C. the influence of blood type on one’s behavior

             D. the connection between personality and blood type

    2. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?

             A. It was lightly believed.                                     B. It was brought to them.

             C. They liked and accepted it.                             D. They stole the idea from others

    3.Which of the following is true according to the passage?

             A. Most scientists in Asia don’t believe in the theory.

             B. The blood-type theory began in Japan in the 1970s.

             C. The blood-type personality theory is about blood type.

             D. People don’t change their personality to match the theory.

    4.What is the best title for the passage?

             A. Is the blood-type theory poplar?                   B. Is the personality changeable?

             C. Is it in your blood?                                             D. Is it in you mind?
