Passage 1(2023·镇江市润州区中考二模)
新素养价值导向Education is not an end, but a way to an end. In other words, we do not educate children only for the 1 of educating them; our purpose is to fit them for life. As soon as we realize this fact, we will understand that it is very important to choose a good way of education which will really 2 children for life.
In many modern countries it has been fashionable for some time to think that by free education for all—whether they are rich or poor, clever or stupid, one can solve all the problems of society and 3 a perfect nation. But we can already see that 4 education for all is not enough. The number of jobs is smaller than that of people with university degrees. Some people with high degrees refuse to do what they think “low” work. Working with hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries, 5 they give up choosing these jobs. They even have no work to do.
But we have to understand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is more important than that of a professor in some ways. We can live without 6 but we will die if we have no food. If no one cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our houses, we would get terrible diseases in our towns. In some countries there are no servants because 7 is willing to do such work. So the professors have to waste their time 8 housework as well.
Actually, when we say that all of us must be educated to fit us for life, it means that we 9 be educated in such a way that—firstly, each of us can do whatever job is suitable for our brain and ability, and secondly, we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society, and that it is very bad to be unwilling to do one's work, or to laugh at someone else's. Only such a type of education can be called 10 to society. We need to accept the needs of society as soon as possible.
