Lesson 2

5.5
Let's move on to talk about the objectives of education.
让我们继续谈谈教育的目标。
For me, education has three main objectives.
对我来说，教育有三个主要目标。
Firstly, it is to gain knowledge.
首先，它是为了获得知识。
Obviously, certain kinds of knowledge are necessary not only to pursue certain careers but also to contribute to the world.
显然，某些种类的知识不仅对追求某些职业是必要的，而且对世界做出贡献也是必要的。
For example, we need to learn maths to understand finance and economics;
例如，我们需要学习数学来理解金融和经济;
we need to be able to read, so that we are able to communicate and expose ourselves to new things.
我们需要能够阅读，这样我们才能交流，让自己接触新事物。
which引导非限制性定语从句，
对前面的another deeper kind of knowledge进行补充说明
Besides, education provides another deeper kind of knowledge, [which lets us understand how the surrounding world works].
此外，教育提供了另一种更深层次的知识，[它让我们了解周围的世界是如何运作的]。
It gives us insights into [how people think] and the attitude we need in order to understand people of different cultures.
它让我们洞察[人们的思维方式]和我们需要的想法，以了解不同文化背景的人。
Secondly, education goes beyond knowledge; it prepares individuals for a well-rounded life in society.
其次，教育超越了知识；它为个人在社会中全面发展做好准备。
In other words, it provides learners with the tools to develop skills, to think for themselves and to continue learning throughout their lives.
换句话说，它为学习者提供了发展技能、独立思考和终身持续学习的工具。
which引导非限制性定语从句，对前面的critical thinking skills进行补充说明
For example, education can help individuals develop critical thinking skills, which will prevent them from following uncritically traditional ways and will enable them to act based on judgement.
例如，教育可以帮助个人培养批判性思维技能，这将防止他们不加批判地遵循传统方式，并将使他们根据判断行事。
prevent sb. from doing
防止某人做某事
Thirdly, education establishes core values and prepares you for social life.
第三，教育建立核心价值观，为你的社会生活做准备。
It helps you to understand [what is wrong and what is right], explore the truth and develop cognition, regardless of whether it's easy or what others' opinions are;
它帮助你理解[什么是对什么是错]，探索真理，发展认知，不管这是否容易或别人的意见;
it also helps you learn [how to interact with other people in a civil manner], regardless of nationality, race or class.
它还可以帮助你学习如何以文明的方式与他人交往，不论国籍、种族或阶层。
It makes people behave with integrity, regardless of background and circumstances.
它使人们行为正直，不论背景和境况。
Therefore, there will be more critical, kind, honest and truthful citizens in society.
因此，社会上将会出现更多批判、善良、诚实、诚实的公民。Eventually, education also enables learners to establish the right values and attitudes, as well as form good habits so that they can become responsible citizens as well.
最后，教育还能使学习者建立正确的价值观和态度，并且形成良好的习惯，使他们成为负责任的公民。
In conclusion, education is important not only because it facilitates individual development, but also promotes social and national development.
总之，教育是重要的，不仅因为它促进个人的发展，而且促进社会和国家的发展。
Referring back to the definition provided at the very beginning, education facilitates the development of an individual physically, mentally, morally and academically, so that the individual can make effective contributions to social development.
回到最开始的定义，教育促进个人在身体、精神、道德和学术上的发展，使个人能够对社会发展作出有效的贡献。

课本83页2. Lesson 2 Choose the correct options.
Back in my days, the l subjective / objective of education was reading, writing and mathematics and after that nothing else mattered. Schools were not expected to 2 distribute/ contribute to the development of young people as 3 well-rounded / well-being individuals.
It was seen as the 4 responsibility / responsibie of the family to provide 5 overall / moral education and teach their
children to have good charecter. Besides,it was believed thatjustby following the law, people would become good 6 citizens / audiences.
Nowadays, the 7definition/ demonstration of education is understood in much broader terms. It is clear now that the true 8 principal / priority of education is to develop the whole person rather than just provide information to learn.
Certainly, reading, writing and maths are still 9 care/core subjects but there are other important skills and abilities to acquire, such as 10 autonomous/ automatic
learning and initiative, judgement and Il integration / integrity, creativity and 12 critical / civil thinking.
Likewise, activities outside of the classroom can help develop children's personalities
and characters. We now also know that parents and other family members can 13 stimulate /
accumulete their children's interest in learning and have animportant role to play.
