B．What is the present situation?

C．The purposes in Adult Education

D．Ways of Adult Education

E．The history of Adult Education

F．What is Adult Education?

1．Voluntary learning in organized courses by mature men and women is called adult education．Such education is offered to make people able to enlarge and interpret their experience as adults．Adults may want to study something which they missed in earlier schooling, get new skills or job training, find out about new technological development, seek better self-understanding, or develop new talents and skills．

2．This kind of education may be in the form of self-study with proper guidance through the use of libraries, correspondence(函授)courses,or broadcasting．It may also be acquired collectively in schools and colleges, study groups, workshops, clubs, and professional associations．

3．Modern adult education for large numbers of people started in the 18th and 19th centuries with the rise of the Industrial Revolution．Great economic and social changes were taking place：people were moving from rural areas to cities：new types of work were being created in an expanding factory system．These and other factors produced a need for further education and reeducation of adults．

4．The earliest program of organized adult education arose in Great Britain in the 1790s, with the founding of an adult school at Nottingham and a mechanics’institute at Glasgow．The earliest adult education institution in the United States was founded by Benjamin Franklin and some friends in Philadelphia in 1727．

5．People recognize that continued learning is necessary for most forms of employment today．For example, parts of the adult population in many countries find it necessary to take part in retraining programs at work or even to learn completely new jobs．Adult education programs are springing up constantly to meet these and other needs．

下面文章中有5处(第1－5题)需要添加小标题。请从以下选项(A、B、C、D、E和F)中选出符合各段意思的小标题。选项中有一项是多余选项。

A．Lack of stone images also reflects religious belief．

B．Art is a good means to know about people’s faith．

C．Artists express their feelings and opinions in their works．

D．People know more about our culture through learning art history．

E．Art is by all means relevant to history．

F．Art history provides information of different places and people．

1．_________

A study of art history might be a good way to learn more about a culture than it is possible to learn in general history classes．Most typical history courses concentrate on politics, economics and war．But art history focuses on much more than this because art reflects not only the political values of a people, but also religious beliefs, emotions, and psychology．

2．_________

In addition, information about the daily activities of our ancestors---or of people very different from our own－can be provided by art．In short, art expresses the essential qualities of a time and a place, and a study of it clearly offers us a deeper understanding than what can be found in most history books．

3．_________

In history books, objective information about the political life of a country is presented; that is, facts about politics are given, but opinions are not expressed．Art, on the other hand, is subjective：it reflects emotions and opinions．The great Spanish painter Francisco Goya was perhaps the first truly “political” artist．In his well-known painting The Third of May 1808, he criticized the Spanish government for its misuse of power over people．Over a hundred years later, symbolic images were used in Pablo Picasso’s Guernica to express the horror of war．Meanwhile, on another continent, the powerful paintings of Diego Rivera, Jose Clemente Orozco, and David Alfaro Siqueiros－as well as the works of Alfredo Ramos Martins－depicted(描述)these Mexican artists’ deep anger and sadness about social problems．

4．_________

In the same way, art can reflect a culture’s religious beliefs．For hundreds of years in Europe, religious art was almost the only type of art that existed．Churches and other religious buildings were filled with paintings that depicted people and stories from the Bible．Although most people couldn’t read, they could still understand biblical(圣经的)stories in the pictures on church walls．

5．_________

By contrast, one of the main characteristics of art in the Middle East was(and still is)its absence of human and animal images．This shows the Islamic belief that statues are unholy．Something else can be more religiously symbolic in history．

请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。

　　Is there a “success personality”－some winning combination of qualities that leads almost inevitably(必然地)to achievement? If so, exactly what is that secret success formula(公式), and can anyone develop it?

　　At the Gallop Organization we recently focused in depth on success, inquiring into the attitudes of 1500 distinguished people selected at random from Who’s Who in America．Our research finds out a number of qualities that occur regularly among top achievers．Here is one of the most important, that is common sense．

　　Common sense is the most widely possessed quality of the people surveyed．Seventy-nine percent award themselves a top score in this quality．And 61 percent say that common sense is very important in contributing to their success．

　　To most, common sense means the ability to present sound, practical judgments on everyday affairs．To do this, one has to remove extra ideas and get right to the key points of what matters．A Texas oil and gas businessman puts it this way：“The key ability for success is simplifying．In conduction of meeting and dealing with industry reducing a complex problem to the simplest term is highly important．”

　　Is common sense a quality a person is born with, or can you do something to increase it? The oil man’s answer is that common sense can definitely be developed．He owes this to learning how to debate in school．Another way to increase your store of common sense is to observe it in others, learning from their－and your own－mistakes．

　　Besides common sense, there are many other factors that influence success：knowing your field, self-reliance, intelligence, the ability to get things done, leadership, creativity, relationships with others, and of course, luck．But common sense stands out．If you develop these qualities, you’ll succeed．And you might even find yourself listed in Who’s Who someday．
