Education in Ancient Greece
Both education and daily life were very different in Sparta, than in Athens or in the other ancient Greek
city-states. With the exception of the Athenians (who thought Athens was the best!), Greeks from other city-
states had a grudging admiration for the Spartans. They wouldn't want to be Spartans, but in times of war,
they most certainly wanted Sparta to be on their side. The Spartans were tough, and the ancient Greeks
admired strength.

In ancient Athens, the purpose of education was to produce citizens trained in the arts, to prepare citizens
for both peace and war. Girls were not educated at school, but many learned to read and write at home, in the
comfort of their courtyard. Other than requiring two years of military training that began at age 18, the state
left parents to educate their sons as they saw fit. The schools were private, but the tuition was low enough so
that even the poorest citizens could afford to send their children for at least a few years. Until age 6 or 7,
boys were taught at home by their mother or by a male slave. Later, in the fourth century B.C. in some cities
public schools were open that were available to poor.
       However, the goal of education in Sparta, an authoritarian, military city-state, was to produce soldier-
citizens. In ancient Sparta, the purpose of education was to produce a well-drilled, well-disciplined marching
army. Spartans believed in a life of discipline, self-denial, and simplicity. They were very loyal to the state of
Sparta. Every Spartan, male or female, was required to have a perfect body. When babies were born in ancient
Sparta, Spartan soldiers would come by the house and check the baby. If the baby did not appear healthy and
strong, the infant was taken away, and left to die on a hillside, or taken away to be trained as a slave (a helot).
Babies who passed this examination were assigned membership in a brotherhood or sisterhood, usually the same
one to which their father or mother belonged.
        On the other hand, the Spartans believed that their women should be educated and capable of defending
themselves. This was deemed necessary so they could defend not only themselves but their husband's property
during his absence. Women enjoyed much freedom and could move around as they wished, because their
husbands did not live at home with them. Spartan women are frequently pictured as warriors. The goddess
Artemis was often considered as a Patron goddess and worrier in Sparta.

        By comparison, the women of Athens city-state encountered a very different type of education to that of
the Spartan women. Before education Athenian women were subjected to a lifetime of enthusiastically obeying
the wishes and orders of others. Even their counterpart Spartan sisters were better fed during this time.
Athenians were taught all the domestic skills they needed to run the home, along with weaving and spinning.
They were not taught to read and write and were not allowed to conduct business transactions or own property.

A/ Comprehension (7points)

Read the text carefully then do the activities.

In many parts of the world, people do not hesitate to engage in activities that do not comply
with the basic patterns of ethics. The absence of legal structures to control their businesses and the
spread of poverty and illiteracy in their land encourage the birth of all sorts of unlawful practices.
The illegal means they handle enable them to acquire vast fortunes and hold immense influence over
their communities.
In Asia and in Africa but also in South America, the widespread usage of child labour by
merciless employers and the expanding trade in drugs and narcotics dominated by powerful groups
are vivid examples of the barbarous features that take grip of human societies. Other misdeeds that
are practised on a large scale involve the obligation made to girls and women to perform immoral acts
in return to low gains, and the extending manufacture of all sorts of forged and imitated goods
without any respect either to the statutes protecting the products and their inventors or the
regulations required for their safe use.
We also find that bribery and embezzlement of public funds by unscrupulous individuals take
alarming proportions in many nations. At the same time the unauthorised sale of fire arms and the
marketing of suspicious medicaments have become intensive. In addition, many operations are carried
out by international organisations that no authority is able to check and to penalize.
All these transgressions to law and morality weaken the resources of the state and impair the
social condition of the inhabitants because of the tax evasion they generate in every country. Worse
than that, they enable their authors to handle the clever strategy of laundering their billions of
dollars through lawful channels where no suspicion will be raised about the cruelty through which
they have amassed and even the death of thousands of defenceless creatures they have caused.

1. Say whether the following statements are True or False according to the text.
a) Wrong-doers have much control over the fellows in their communities.

Phoenicia was an ancient civilization composed of independent city-states located along the
coast of the Mediterranean Sea stretching through what is now Lebanon. The Phoenicians were a
great maritime people. They were very talented sailors and became famous across the Mediterranean
as traders of a rare pigment used to create purple dye for clothing. This dye was so rare and
expensive that it became the color of royalty in most places, and only the most powerful could afford
to wear it. The word Phoenician actually comes from the Greek word phoínios, meaning purple.

After the decline of the Egyptian civilization, Phoenician city-states rose to power and became
the dominant seafaring traders of the Mediterranean Sea. They established ports along the coasts
of Europe, the Middle East, and northern Africa. Their dominance lasted from roughly 1200-800 BCE.
The Phoenicians controlled their trade routes and ports until the Persian empire, under Cyrus the
Great, conquered the Phoenician city-states in 539 BCE. Alexander the Great later took control of
Tyre in 332 BCE after a bloody battle, and soon conquered the rest of the Phoenician kingdoms
peacefully. From this point on, Phoenicians were assimilated into the Greek civilization, and most of
their culture slowly died away.

Unethical behaviours in the workplace can be defined as any action that does not confirm with the
standards of conduct established by the organization. Unethical behaviours can occur in the relationships
between employees, in the way an employee goes about his business or how he uses company resources.
Unethical behaviours can even break the law in some situations.

Employees may use company computers to engage in unethical behaviours. For example, an employee who
is not permitted to use the Internet for personal reasons commits an unethical act by shopping online while
working. Random Internet surfing takes away from the time he spends on work related activities. Employees
sometimes use company’s email to spread inappropriate websites or videos to colleagues, some of which could be
considered disrespectful by the recipients.

Unethical behaviours can include “stealing” time from the company, as it is paying its employees and
receiving no productivity in return. In addition to time spent on aimless Internet surfing, time misuse can
consist of extending breaks beyond the allotted time, falsifying time sheets, coming into work late and leaving
early and running personal matters while travelling on company business.

Some unethical acts can also be illegal when a bookkeeper or an accountant commits embezzlement by
having access to the company’s financial records. As well as an employee dealing with personal files, uses Social
Security number to raid bank accounts or fraudulently obtain credit cards.

Corruption has been defined in many different ways, each lacking in some aspect. A few years ago, the
question of definition absorbed a large proportion of the time spent on discussions of corruption at
conferences and meetings. However, like an elephant, even though it might be difficult to describe, it is
generally not difficult to recognize when observed. In most cases, though not all, different observers would
agree on whether a particular behaviour connotes corruption. Unfortunately, the behaviour is often difficult to
observe directly because, typically, acts of corruption do not take place in broad daylight.
The most popular and simplest definition of corruption is that it is the abuse of public power for private
benefit. From this definition, it should not be concluded that corruption cannot exist within private sector
activities. Especially in large private enterprises, this phenomenon clearly exists, as for example, in
procurement or even in recruitment. In several cases of corruption, the abuse of public power is not necessarily
for one’s private benefit or one’s party, class, tribe, friends, family, and so on. In fact, in many countries some
of the proceeds of corruption go to finance the political parties.
Not all acts of corruption result in the payment of bribes. For example, a public employee who claims to
be sick but goes on vacation is abusing his public position for personal use. Thus, he is engaging in an act of
corruption even though no bribe is paid.
It is important to distinguish bribes from gifts. In many instances, bribes can be disguised as gifts. A bribe
implies reciprocity while a gift should not. However, even though the distinction is fundamental, the
identification of a bribe may not always be simple.

The marketing of junk food and fast food has become big business—some have called the food
industry the next Tobacco. Companies spend top dollar on advertising to make us keenly aware of
their products. The aggressive advertising is working, Pepsi spends an estimated $2.1 billion a year on
marketing, McDonald’s $1.2 billion, and Coca-Cola is not far behind at $895 million.
The average child watches 10,000 food advertisements per year on television; most are for junk
food and fast food—only 2% are for fruits, vegetables, or beans. Advertisements for junk food and
fast food can also be seen in magazines, movies (through product placement), stores, the Internet,
and even schools. What impact is this having on youth? Recent statistics indicate that 14% of
children are now seriously overweight. 60% of overweight children between the ages of 5-10 years of
age already have at least one risk factor for heart disease, including elevated blood cholesterol,
blood pressure or increased insulin, and type 2 diabetes.
However, today’s youth, particularly girls, get mixed messages from the media. On one hand,
they are bombarded daily with advertisements for junk food and fast food on television and
magazines, yet the same magazines and television shows that serve up these ads also celebrate the
waif look by portraying pencil-thin models. This has created a state of confusion and potential danger
for many young women (and men). The National Eating Disorders Association estimates that 81% of
10-year-olds are afraid of being fat and between “5-10 million girls and women and 1 million boys and
men are struggling with eating disorders including anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, or
borderline conditions.”
