A

     College students constantly hear the praises of education. We have all become used to believing that a college education is always a guarantee of an easier life. I was nine years old when my fourth-grade teacher presented me with a task, to write down all of the things I wanted in my life. I filled my paper with things like: own a big house and have servants; be rich and have a good job. The next day my teacher handed back my paper and in red ink she wrote: “GO TO COLLEGE.” For a long time, I was convinced that once I obtained an education, BAM! Life would be easier.^T

     However, education cannot promise all wishes, dreams, and desires. Society must reject the foolish idea that a college education’s main purpose is to satisfy our desires and secure success. Like most challenging things, education is a gamble in which results depend entirely on people’s ability to look past their wants to see the realism and reason behind their wants.^h

     For instance, my first year of college, I took a sociology class. In class, we were taught that Third World countries were poor. We learned that our quality of life would be almost impossible for an average person in those countries. I began to examine my own desire to be rich. To always go after money felt selfish when knowing others had none at all. Learning about other society’s financial situations forced me to look beyond what I wanted. ⁱ

     Through the process of education, everything once desired is tested. Wanting something no longer is enough; it’s more important to examine why we want it and whether we really want it. When my desire for money changed, everything changed. I stopped longing for money-driven careers and stopped valuing the people who had them. I began to examine the things I purchased and my reason for wanting them. ³

     Education is a tool to be used to develop and advance our desires, so we can discover the things that are truly significant in life. Education is a source to expand our society to see beyond the superficial appeals and the “quick fixes” , leaving the belief of an effortless life behind in order to desire a meaningful one.^M

B

     Does everyone want a challenging job? In spite of all the attention focused by the media, academicians, and social scientists on human potential and the needs of individuals, there is no evidence to support that the vast majority of workers want challenging jobs. Some individuals prefer highly complex and challenging jobs; others develop in simple, routine work.⁼

     The individual-difference variable（变量） that seems to gain the greatest support for explaining who prefers a challenging job and who doesn’t is the strength of an individual’s needs for personal growth and self-direction at work. Individuals with these higher-order growth needs are more responsive for challenging work. What percentage of ordinary workers actually desire higher-order need satisfactions and will respond positively to challenging jobs? No current data is available, but a study from the 1970s estimated the figure at about 15%. Even after adjusting for changing work attitudes and the growth in white-collar jobs, it seems unlikely that the number today exceeds 40%.

     The strongest voice advocating challenging jobs has not been workers—it’s been professors, social science researchers, and media people. Professors, researchers, and journalists undoubtedly made their career choices, to some degree, because they wanted jobs that gave them autonomy, recognition and challenge. That, of course, is their choice. But for them, to force their needs onto the workforce in general is presumptuous (冒失的).

     Not every employee is looking for a challenging job. Many workers meet their higher-order need off the job. There are 168 hours in every individual’s week. Work rarely consumes more than 30% of this time. That leaves considerable opportunities, even for individuals with strong growth needs, to find higher-order need satisfaction outside the workplace. So don’t feel you have a responsibility to create challenging jobs for all your employees. For many people, work is something that will never excite or challenge them. And they don’t expect to find their growth opportunities at work. Work is merely something they have to do to pay their bills. They can find challenges outside of work on the golf course, fishing, at their local pub, with their friends in social clubs, with their family, and the like.

5. What makes people choose challenging jobs?

  A. Positive responses.                               B. Work attitudes.

  C. Higher-order growth needs.                 D. Personal self-direction.

6. Who is the least likely to prefer a challenging job?

  A. College professors.                              B. Construction workers.

  C. Social researchers.                               D. Media journalists.

7. The passage is intended for _______.

  A. job-hunters               B. researchers            C. graduates               D. employers

8. Which is the best title for the passage?

  A. Not Everyone Wants a Challenging Job

  B. Complex Jobs Offer Growth Opportunities

  C. Employers Should Create Challenging Jobs

  D. Challenging Jobs Give a Sense of Recognition

     JOHANNESBURG, Aug.18 (Xinhua) -- An estimated half a million South African children with disabilities have been shut out of the country’s education system, a report revealed on Tuesday. The report was jointly released in Johannesburg by the Human Rights Watch at a joint event with South African Human Rights Commission.

     Widespread discrimination and negative attitudes against children with disabilities were identified as key barriers that have kept these children out of formal education, said the report.

     Elin Martinez, Researcher in the Children Rights division of the Human Rights Watch, said these barriers should be removed as a matter of urgency. “Children with disabilities are turned down in mainstream schools and asked to go to special schools where they do not belong.”said Martinez.

     “No one has carried out an adequate assessment to understand the best learning environment for them. They are simply sent out there and placed on the waiting list where they can wait up to four years,” added the researcher.

     Researchers also found that the few disabled children who made it to mainstream schools suffered physical violence and neglect due to inadequate teachers’ training. Doreen Moluke, a mother of a child who has Down Syndrome, said she is one of many parents who have tried to place their children in school but with no success. Daniel Bakele, Africa Executive Director at the Human Rights Watch, told Xinhua that the level of discrimination revealed by the report is not acceptable and swift action is required from the government.

     “We urge the South African government to review its education policies and ensure that they are implemented to address this challenge.” said Bakele.

9. According to the report, what are the main factors that prevent children with disabilities            

  from receiving formal education?

  A. Lack of fund.                                                  B. Lack of facilities.

  C. Discrimination and negative attitudes.            D. Lack of fund and facilities.

10. According to Daniel Bakele, __________.

   A. the teachers are to blame for the situation.

   B. the level of discrimination against disabled children is not acceptable

   C. people should accept the level of discrimination against disabled children.

   D. it’s common for disabled children to wait a few years to enter mainstream schools.

11. What problem are disabled children faced with in mainstream schools ?

   A. They are abused by their teachers.

   B. They are falling behind normal students.

   C. They are supported by their teachers and peers.

   D. They experience physical violence and neglect.

12. What is true according to the passage?

   A. Disabled students should not be sent to special schools.                 

   B. Disabled students don’t have to wait long before they can enter mainstream schools.

   C. People know exactly what to provide for building a good learning environment for

   disabled children.

   D. It’s impossible to remove the barriers that keep disabled students out of formal
