C. Read the following passage and chose the item (A,B,C,D) that best answers each of the question
about it . Blacken A,B,C,D

It is commonly believed in the United States that school is where people go to get an education.
Nevertheless, it has been said that today children interrupt their education to go to school. The distinction
between schooling and education implied by this remark is important.

Education is much more open-ended and all-inclusive than schooling. Education knows no bounds. It can
take place anywhere, whether in the shower or on the job, whether in a kitchen or on a tractor. It includes
both the formal learning that takes place in schools and the whole universe of informal learning. The
agents of education can range from a revered grandparent to the people debating politics on the radio, from
a child to a distinguished scientist. Whereas schooling has a certain predictability, education quite often
produces surprises. A chance conversation with a stranger may lead a person to discover how little is
known of other religions. People are engaged in education from infancy on. Education, then, is a very
broad, inclusive term. It is a lifelong process, a process that starts long before the start of school, and one
that should be an integral part of one's entire life.
Schooling, on the other hand, is a specific, formalized process, whose general pattern varies little from one
setting to the next. Throughout a country, children arrive at school at approximately the same time, take
assigned seats, are taught by an adult, use similar textbooks, do homework, take exams, and so on. The
slices of reality that are to be learned, whether they are the alphabet or an understanding of the workings of
government, have usually been limited by the boundaries of the subject being taught. For example, high
school students know that they are not likely to find out in their classes the truth about political problems
in their communities or what the newest filmmakers are experimenting with. There are definite conditions
surrounding the formalized process of schooling.

1. What is the main idea of the passage?

to school” (lines 2) ?
