五、回答问题(本大题共 5 小题,每小题 2 分,共 10 分)
The benefits of a university education are well-known. But a recent study from Australia showed that university education offers more than just a way to knowledge.
According to the research, which was published in the journal Oxford Economic Papers this month, people who have studied at university tend to be more outgoing than those who haven’t.
Indeed, it’s believed that higher education allows students to strengthen their so-called non-cognitive(非认知的)abilities.
The researchers studied 575 young Australians over eight years, testing certain non-cognitive abilities at different stages of their education. It was found that as each year of their time at university went by, most students’ non-cognitive skills improved greatly.
The researchers found that the developments in character were a result of the students’ surroundings, rather than the content(内容)of their courses.
As most university students are seeing the world on their own for the first time, they must learn how to communicate with others and become liked.
This could mean that those without a university education can still be as outgoing as those who have one, as long as they make the effort to expose(暴露)themselves to character-building situations.
As US human rights activist Martin Luther King once said, “Intelligence plus character — that is the goal of true education.”
