V. Reading

Read the following passage, and answer the questions.

Education encompasses both the teaching and learning of knowledge, proper conduct,
and technical competency. It thus focuses on the cultivation of skills, trades or
professions, as well as mental, moral and aesthetic development.
Formal education consists of systematic instruction, teaching, and training by
professional teachers. This consists of the application of pedagogy and the development
of curricula.
Educational systems are established to provide education and training, often for
children and the young, so that they can learn. A curriculum defines what students
should know, understand and be able to do as the result of education. A teaching
profession delivers teaching which enables learning, and a system of policies,
regulations, examinations, structures and funding enables teachers to teach to the best
of their abilities.
