answer to each of the following questions.

Science is a very important indicator of the future. Every scientific advance or discovery gives us a clue
about what the future will hold for society. Perhaps the most amazing scientific discovery in recent times
was the birth of Dolly the sheep. Dolly was the first successful cloned animal – that is, she was the first
animal ever to be created from a single adult cell. She is an exact copy of her biological mother. Since
Dolly’s birth, there has been debate about what this means for society in the future – because if we can clone
sheep, we can surely clone humans. Some think that there are already signs that such things will eventually
happen. For example, couples in the United States who can’t or don’t want to have children by natural
methods can now select the human egg and sperm they want through catalogues, audiotapes or even
computer order systems. One journalist has commented, “Ordering a frozen embryo is a little more
emotionally complicated than ordering a home-delivered pizza – but not so different logistically.”

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 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 down 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.
