今天結課答應給大家儲備這樣一個素材段落，后面會陸續(xù)進行。其實對于包括四級，六級，考研，新托福，GRE和GMAT的同學都會有用。只不過對于GRE和GMAT的作文具有針對性作用，而對于其他考試類別，能提高大家的語言和信息的表達能力。

　　Education developed from the human struggle for survival and enlightenment. It may be formal or informal. Informal education refers to the general social process by which human beings acquire the knowledge and skills needed to function in their culture. Formal education refers to the process by which teachers instruct students in courses of study within institutions.

　　The proper aim of education is to promote significant learning. Significant learning entails development. Development means successively asking broader and deeper questions of the relationship between oneself and the world.
