问题                    Schooling and Education
    It is commonly believed in the United States that school is where people go to get an education. Nevertheless, it has been said that today children interrupt their education to go to school. ______【46】.
    Education is much more open-ended and all-inclusive than schooling. Education knows no bounds. ______【47】It includes both the formal learning that takes place in schools and the whole universe of informal learning. The agents of education can range from a revered grandparent to the people debating politics on the radio, from a child to a distinguished scientist. Whereas schooling has a certain predictability, education quite often produces surprises. ______【48】. People are engaged in 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 an integral part of one’s entire life. ______【49】. Throughout a country, children arrive at school at approximately the same time, take assigned seats, are taught by an adult, use similar textbooks, do homework, take exams, and so on. The slices of reality that are to be learned, whether they are the alphabet or an understanding of the workings of government, have usually been limited by the boundaries of the subject 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 communities or what the newest filmmakers are experimenting with.【50】.
A. The distinction between schooling and education implied by this remark is important.
B. A man who has never been to school can also be well-educated.
C. There are definite conditions surrounding the formalized process of schooling.
D. It can take place anywhere, whether in the shower or in the job, whether in a kitchen or on a tractor.
E. Schooling, on the other hand, is a specific, formalized process, whose general pattern varies little from one setting to the next.
F. A chance conversation with a stranger may lead a person to discover how little is known of other religions.
选项
答案E
解析 然而, 上学却是一个特定的形式化了的过程。在不同场合下, 它的基本形式大同小异。下一句提到：在全国各地, 孩子们几乎在同一时刻到达学校, 坐在指定的座位上, 由一位成年人传授知识, 使用大致相同的教材, 做作业, 考试等等。这些细节就是来说明上学的大同小异。
