1、 Education(教育)Aducation is not an end, but a means to an end. In other words, we do not educate children only for educating them. Our purpose is to fit them for life. In some modern countries it has been fashionable to think that free education for all can solve all the problems of society and build
2、 a perfect nation. But we can already see that free education for all is not enough.We find in such countries a far larger number of people with university degrees refusing to do what they think is “low“work, and. in fact, working with one”s hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countrie
