If you are in a dilemma about being selftaught or getting formal education, you have come to the right webpage.In this article, we note the advantages of each of these to help you decide which one would be the best for you.
Perhaps the biggest advantage of being selftaught is that you are able to save a lot of money.With each passing year, the cost of getting a degree is on the rise.As a result, many students these days tend to graduate from college with a significant amount of debt.This makes it necessary for them to get a job as soon as possible, otherwise a number of serious issues may arise.Besides, it is possible to learn faster on your own, by focusing on only those areas that you are interested in.Finally, learning on your own can be a great confidence builder.You have to struggle to gain knowledge but once you clear the basics on your own, you will find yourself being much more confident about your abilities.
One of the biggest advantages of formal education is that you get a degree which is a mark of recognition that you have achieved a level of knowledge in that particular field.Many companies tend to prefer candidates who have a college degree.What's more, though formal education lacks the convenience and flexibility of selfeducation, it offers you much more in terms of the actual structure of the learning process.Last, being formally educated means that you will enter a college or other similar educational institutions.There you will get the benefit of being taught and guided by learned teachers and other subject experts.This will be a big benefit as you will be able to take advantage of their experience and gain indepth knowledge about the subject.
Thus,both formal education and selfeducation have their own sets of advantages.The choice between the two comes down to individual preferences as well as personal situations.

Though we are limited (限制) within the walls of the educational places, we openly explore other cultures of the world! 3 Other cultures have valuable things to share, enriching our own.Education also makes us want to travel and exchange with various cultures, getting more experience.
When there's a decrease in the economy (经济), those who attended college will be more likely to find a new job than those who only finished high school and have a limited skill set.The more education you have, the more chances you will get to improve the quality of your life as you have a better job and earn more money.
When you're skillful and knowledgeable, you can get close to people of similar backgrounds and tastes. 4 Good networking can do much good to you in your later life.
5 You can talk about ideas and events instead of just other people and what's on sale in stores.An educated person doesn't gossip (说闲话), having a preference to discuss ideas and listen to what other people have to say.

【语篇解读】 本文为议论文。一些高中生认为高等教育是没用的,因此他们选择不上大学。作者认为应该上大学接受良好教育并说明上大学的理由以及大学教育的好处。
1.A 空格的上句“Some high school students think it useless to receive higher education.”(一些高中生认为接受高等教育是无用的),说明一些学生认为高等教育没用,结合下句“If you're one of them, think again.Here are some reasons why you should go to college and receive a good education there”(如果你是他们中的一员,要三思。下面是一些你应该上大学并在那里接受良好教育的原因。) 可推断如果有人认为上大学没用,那么可能选择不上大学。分析选项可知A项(因此他们选择不上大学)符合题意,与上文是因果关系,引出下文“如果你是他们的一个”,them与上文一致,指代不想上大学的学生。故选A。
2.F 根据下文“We take that knowledge later on to build our careers after graduation...., that job will not be within easy reach.”(我们在毕业后利用这些知识来建立我们的事业。你开始工作后会学到更多的知识,但是,如果没有教育,那份工作将很难获得。)可知,本段叙述学校中获取知识对工作的影响。由此可推断出空格处与从学校教育中获取知识有关。分析选项可知,F项“Schools and universities are the first places to get knowledge.(学校和大学是获取知识的第一个地方)”符合语境,F项不仅意义与本段一致,而且有关键词“knowledge”的复现,符合题意,故选F。
3.B 根据空格后的“Other cultures have valuable things to share, enriching our own.”(其他文化也有宝贵的东西可以分享,来丰富我们自己。)可知,我们的文化并不是唯一的,还有其他的文化丰富我们的知识,B项“We come to know that ours is not the only culture.(我们开始知道,我们的文化不是唯一的文化)”符合语境,故选B。
4.D 根据空前“When you're skillful and knowledgeable, you can get close to people of similar backgrounds and tastes.”(当你技术娴熟、知识渊博时,你就能接触到有着相同背景和品味的人。)可推断出因为接触到更多有相同背景和相同品味的人,自然会让你有更多更好的人际关系。分析选项可知,D项“It means a good education leads to excellent networking.(这意味着良好的教育会带来良好的人际关系网)”符合语境,故选D。
5.C 根据空格后“You can talk about ideas and events instead of just other people and...and listen to what other people have to say.”(你可以谈论一些想法和事件,而不仅仅是谈论其他人和商店里的特价商品。一个受过教育的人不会说闲话,他喜欢讨论想法,倾听别人的意见。)可推断出,本段是说良好的教育会让你谈吐恰当,成为有能力的人,更有趣的人。分析选项可知C项“A good education makes you a more interesting person.(良好的教育使你成为一个更有趣的人)与本段意义一致,故选C。

On the evening of February 9th, Li Hua was watching TV when he asked his mother impolitely why the dinner hadn't been ready.But actually his mother was busy preparing dinner in the kitchen.Then, the telephone rang.It was from his aunt, who wanted to say “happy birthday” to his mother.Li Hua was very sorry for having forgotten all about it.
I am surprised at the story.Our parents give us lots of love and care while we don't care for them enough.It's never too late to realize this and show our love and care for them.
