In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education dont. It seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs. But this isnt 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 dont 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, 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 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 schoolB . have a good chance to get a jobC . spend the best years to choose jobsD . have fewer chances to get a good job（2）The earliest reasons of education was probably to .A . make a man lead a better lifeB . teach a man to write and readC . make people get a way of livingD . teach people to read good books（3）The underlined word well-rounded in the passage means in Chinese.

Have you ever seen a bearded dragon (鬃狮蜥)?Bearded dragons live mostly in Australia and they enjoy hot, dry weather. Bearded dragons are very popular pets because they are friendly and easy to train. They are also easy to care for. They need strong sunlight and warm temperatures. They prefer the temperature to be between 800 and 900 during the day, and then around 700 during the night.

Not long ago, researchers learned some surprising things. Some caterpillars(毛毛虫) attacked a willow tree(柳树) in the woods. The tree changed the chemistry of its leaves and the leaves tasted so terrible that the caterpillars stopped eating them. Then even more surprising, the tree sent out a special vapour (蒸气) a signal causing its neighbours to change the chemistry of their own leaves and make them less tasty.Communication, of course, doesnt need to be always in words. We can talk to each other by smiling, raising our shoulders and moving our hands. We know that birds and other animals use a whole vocabulary of songs, sounds and movements. Bees dance their signals, flying in certain patterns that tell other bees where to find nectar(花蜜) for honey.
