Let’s try to imagine the world without education, without any schools, colleges and universities. What would that be like? No school means no knowledge and skills. No university means no doctors, no engineers and no scientists. Therefore, it means no development and no inventions. Would you like to live in the world that is deteriorating? The answer is quite obvious: it’s vitally important to study and get an education.
Nowadays there’re different kinds of education, but the most wide-spread is still the traditional one that includes the set of establishments providing education. For the vast majority of people, the first step is a primary school where students get the basic skills of reading, writing and counting. The next stage is secondary school which gives broad knowledge about various subjects and prepares students for future professional education. At the end of the last form school children take exams and after school graduation they have several options: to stop studying and get a job or get professional education in college or university. Students’ life is not easy because they have to take exams every term and study hard to succeed. Nevertheless, most people remember students’ years as the best time of their lives, full of fun and entertainment.
However, modern world is full of new opportunities to get education. More and more schools and universities provide on-line courses and trainings. It has some advantages for sure, because you study in a comfortable place at comfortable time. Also, some alternative ways are becoming more and more popular, e.g. home education or some approaches connected with developing the mind without books and strict systems.
As for me, I’m fully convinced that, no matter what kind of education you support, it’s necessary to study and develop your skills, to use the experience of others to create your own ideas in order to implement them to life.
For 12 B. several days we were delayed before we actually set off for the mines, firstly because the king was 13 D. busy taking control of his new kingdom, and secondly because Sir Henry was recovering from the wounds that the former king had given him. We walked 14 C. for three days before we reached the caves which formed the entrance to King Solomon's mines. As we walked across the plains Gagool was silent, she did not even 14 D smile when we stopped to eat; put when we started to 15 D. climb up into the mountains she seemed to come alive. She was the only one who knew the exact location of the mines, and she got more and more 16 B excited the closer we got to our destination. In the evening of the third day we arrived and set up camp to wait for the next day. In the light of the 17 A. day we could see that the mouth of the cave was a short way up a steep cliff. Until we reached the 18 D. top of the cliff we could see that there was an easy route up to the cave, and that it had been worn smooth by 19 C. winds over hundreds of years. As we walked into the cave it became darker and darker. Sir Henry held a 20 B. burning torch above his head, and by its light we could make out white shapes in the distance. As we came closer we could see that they seemed to be shaped like men.
