Thomas Alva Edison was awarded more patents on inventions than any other
American. When he died in 1931， Americans wondered how they could best show
their respect for him. One suggestion was that the nation observe a minute or two of
total blackout. All electric power would be shut off in homes， streets and factories.
Perhaps this suggestion made Americans realize fully what Edison and his inventions meant to them. Electric power was too important to the country. Shutting it off for even a short time would have led to complete confusion. A blackout was out of the question.
On the day of Edison‘s funeral， many people silently dimmed their lights. In this way they honored the man who had done more than anyone else to put the great force of electricity at his countrymen’s fingertips.

Education is not an end， but a means to an end. In other words， we do not
educate children only for the purpose of educating them. Our purpose is to fit them
for life.
In some modern countries it has for some time been fashionable to think that by
free education for all —whether rich or poor， clever or stupid —one can solve all the problems of society and build a perfect nation. But we can already see that free education for all is not enough； we find in such countries a far larger number of people with university degrees； they refuse to do what they think “low” work； and， in fact， work with hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries. But we have only to think a moment to understand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is far more important than that of a professor； we can live without education， but we die if we have no food.
If no one cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our houses， we should get terrible diseases in our towns.
In fact， when we say that all of us must be educated to fit us for life， it means that we must be educated in such a way that， firstly， each of us can do whatever work suited to his brains and ability and， secondly， that we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society， and that is very bad to be ashamed of one‘s work. Only such a type of education can be considered valuable to society.
（ ）55. The writer of the passage thinks that .
A. education can settle most of the world‘s problems
B. free education for all probably leads to a perfect world
C. free education won‘t help to solve social problems
D. all the social problems can‘t be solved by education
（ ）56. The writer wants prove that .
A. our society needs all kinds of jobs
B. our society needs free education for all
C. a farmer is more important than a professor
D. people with university degree refuse to do what they think “low” work
（ ）57. According to the passage .
A. work with hands is dirty and shameful
B. work with hands is low work
C. work with hands is the most important
D. we can‘t regard work with hands as low work
（ ）58. The purpose of education is .
A. to choose a system of education
B. to prepare children mainly for their future work
C. to let everyone receive education fit for him
D. to build a perfect world
