Read the following passage carefully, and then answer the questions. (6 points)

  Education is the process by which people gain knowledge, skills, habits, and values.
The word education is also used to describe the results of the education process. Education
should help a person become a useful member of society . It should also help him develop
an understanding of his culture and live in a better life . The most common way to get an
education is to attend school . But much education also takes place outside the classroom.
  Education involves both learning and teaching. Sometimes, people learn by teaching
themselves. But they also learn with the help of other people such as parents or teachers.
Parents are a child’s first and perhaps most important teachers. But few parents have either

 
 the time or the ability to teach their children every thing that they need to know . A 
modern society can not continue its life without education . But most nations consider education’s benefits to individuals equally as important as its benefits to society.

Questions : 

53. What is the most usual way to get an education?
54. Where does much education occur?
55. Who are the first teachers of a child?
56. Do most people regard the advantages of education only to the individuals?
57. The word “they” in line 4 in second paragraph refers to ……………… .

58. We understand from the passage that most parents send their children to school,
  because they ………… .
  a) are too busy to teach them at home             . b) don’t get much benefit from teaching .  
  c) want their children to learn in the society .        d) have to attend schools themselves .
