College students constantly hear the praises of education. We have all become used to believing that a college education is always a guarantee (保证) of an easier life. I was nine years old when my fourth-grade teacher presented me with a task, to write down all of the things

I wanted in my life. I filled my paper with things like: own a big house and have servants; be rich and have a good job. The next day my teacher handed back my paper and in red ink she wrote: “GO TO COLLEGE.” For a long time, I was completely sure that once I got an education, BAM! Life would be easier.

However, education cannot promise all wishes, dreams, and desires (strong wishes). Society must refuse to accept the foolish idea that a college education's main purpose is to satisfy our desires and secure success. Like most challenging things, education is a gamble(赌博)in which results depend entirely on people’s ability to look past their wants to see the realism and reason behind their wants.

For instance, my first year of college, I took a sociology class. In class, we were taught that Third World countries were poor. We learned that our quality of life would be almost impossible for an average person in those countries. I began to examine my own desire to be rich. To always go after money felt selfish when knowing others had none at all. Learning about other society's financial situations forced me to look beyond what I wanted.

Through the process (过程) of education, everything once desired is tested. Wanting something is no longer enough; it’s more important to examine why we want it and whether we really want it. When my desire for money changed, everything changed. I stopped longing for money-driven careers and stopped valuing the people who had them. I began to examine the things I purchased and my reason for wanting them.

Education is a tool to be used to develop and advance our desires, so we can discover the things that are truly significant in life. Education is a source to expand our society to see beyond the superficial(表面的)attraction and the “quick fixes”, leaving the belief of an effortless life behind in order to desire a meaningful one.

根据短文内容从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项。

Memory, they say, is a matter of practice and exercise. 16 But even if you are successful, there are times when your memory seems to play tricks on you.

17 One morning last week, for example, I got up and found that I had left the front door unlocked all night, yet I clearly remember locking it carefully the night before.

18 Once in a while you remember not doing something, and then find out that you did. One day last month, for example, I was sitting in a barber(理发师)shop waiting for my turn to get a haircut, and suddenly I realized that I had got a haircut two days before at the barber shop across the street from my office.
