practice because it’s so boring. They have to be given gold stars and medals to be persuaded to swim, or

have to be bribed to take exams. But the story is different when you’re older.
Over the years, I’ve done my share of adult learning. At 30, I went to a college and did courses in
History and English. It was an amazing experience. For starters, I was paying, so there was no reason to be
late – I was the one frowning and drumming my fingers if the tutor was late, not the other way round.
Indeed, if I could persuade him to linger for an extra five minutes, it was a bonus, not a nuisance. I wasn’t
frightened to ask questions, and homework was a pleasure not a pain. When I passed an exam, I had passed
it for me and me alone, not for my parents or my teachers. The satisfaction I got was entirely personal.
Some people fear going back to school because they worry that their brains have got rusty. But the
joy is that, although some parts have rusted up, your brain has learnt all kinds of other things since you were
young. It has learnt to think independently and flexibly and is much better at relating one thing to another.
What you lose in the rust department, you gain in the maturity department.
In some ways, age is a positive plus. For instance, when you’re older, you get less frustrated.
Experiences has told you that, if you’re calm and simply do something carefully again and again, eventually
you’ll get the hang of it. The confidence you have in other areas – from being able to drive a car, perhaps,
means that if you can’t say, build a chair instantly, you don’t, like a child, want to destroy your first pathetic
attempts. Maturity tells you that you will, with application, eventually get there.
I hated piano lessons at school, but I was good at music. And coming back to it, with a teacher who
could explain why certain exercises were useful and with musical concepts that, at the age of ten, I could
never grasp, was magical. Initially, I did feel a bit strange, thumping out a piece that I’d played for my
school exams, with just as little comprehension of what the composer intended as I’d had all those years
before. But soon, complex emotions that I never knew poured out from my fingers, and suddenly I could
understand why practice makes perfect.

Exercise 13. Read the passage and choose the correct answer to each of the questions below.
It is common believed that school is where people go to get an education. Nevertheless, is has been
said that today children interrupt their education to go to school. The difference between schooling and
education implied by this remark is important.
Education is much more open-ended and all-inclusive than schooling. Education knows no limits. It
can take place anywhere, whether in the shower or on the job, whether in the kitchen or on a tractor. It
includes both the formal learning that takes place in school and the whole universe of informal learning. The
agent (doer) of education can vary from respected grandparents to the people arguing about politics on the
radio, from a child to a famous scientist. Whereas schooling has a certain predictability, education quite
often produces surprise. A chance conversation with a stranger may lead a person to discover how little is

known of other religions. People receive education from infancy on. Education, then, is a very broad,
inclusive term; it is a lifelong process, a process that starts long before the start of school, and one that
should be a necessary part of one’s entire life.
Schooling, on the other hand, is a specific, formalized process, whose general pattern varies little
from one setting to the next. Throughout a country, children arrive at school at about the same time, take the
assigned seats, are taught by an adult, use similar textbooks, do homework, take exams, and so on. The
pieces of reality that are to be learned, whether they are the alphabet or an understanding of the workings of
governments, have been limited by the subjects being taught. For example, high school students know that
they are not likely to find out in their classes the truth about political problems in their society or what the
newest filmmakers are experimenting with. There are clear and undoubted conditions surrounding the
formalized process of schooling.
1. This passage is mainly aimed at ________
A. giving examples of different schools.
B. telling the difference between the meaning of two related words
C. listing and discussing several educational problems
D. telling a story about excellent teachers
2. In the passage, the expression “children interrupt their education to go to school” mostly implies that
_______
A. education is totally ruined by schooling.
B. all of life is an education.
C. schooling takes places everywhere.
D. schooling prevents people discovering things.
3. The words “all-inclusive” in the passage mostly means _______
A. going in many directions.
B. involving many school subjects.
C. allowing no exceptions.
D. including everything or everyone.
4. According to the passage, the doers of education are _______.
A. mostly famous scientists
B. mainly politicians

C. only respected grandparents
D. almost all people
5. What does the writer means by saying “education quite often produces surprises”?
A. Educators often produce surprises.
B. It’s surprising that we know little about other religions.
C. Success of informal learning is predictable. D. Informal learning often brings about unexpected results.
6. Which of the following would the writer support?
A. Without formal education, people won’t be able to read and write.
B. Schooling is of no use because students do similar things every day.
C. Our education system needs to be changed as soon as possible.
D. going to school is only part of how people become educated.
