Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, c, or D to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions.
In the earliest times children got their education directly from parents and other adults.
They learned mainly skills for survival. Adults passed down this knowledge through spoken
2
language. Eventually cultures around the world began inventing writing. As societies developed
they set up schools to teach reading, writing, maths and other subjects.
The first schools were usually just for boys. Most of the students came from rich and
powerful families. Often the purpose of their education was religious training. In many
cultures the religious leaders formed the highest level of society. Some schools had other
purposes as well. Many schools focused on military training. Sometimes youths attended
special schools to learn the art of public speaking. These skills were meant to help them
become future leaders.
Most girls received their education at home. They learned cooking, sewing and other useful
skills. Over time education became available to more people, not just the rich and powerful.
The governments of some countries set up public systems of education in the 1800s. More
schools opened to girls.
During the 1900s marks, or grades, became a new measure of learning. Testing became a
regular part of formal education. As education became more important to people, teachers’
colleges opened. The requirements for becoming a teacher became stricter. Teaching became a
highly respected profession.
28. In the earliest times, children learned mainly skills so that they could________.
A. continue to exist B. pass this knowledge down
C. invent writing D. make societies develop
