We send our children to school to prepare them for the time when they will be big and will have to
work for themselves. They learn their own language so that they will be able to tell others clearly what they
want and what they know, and understand what others tell them. They learn foreign languages in order to
be able to understand the people from other countries and make themselves understood. They learn
history to know
something about human beings they meet every day. What they learn at school is, of
course, quite useful, but is that the only reason (原因) why they go to school?
No. There is more in education than just learning facts. We go to school, above all, to learn how to
learn, so that when we have left school, we can continue to learn. A man who really knows how to learn
will always be successful, because whenever he has to do something new, he will quickly teach himself
how to do it in the best way. The uneducated person, on the other hand, is either unable 
to do something
new, or does it badly. So the purpose (目的) of school is not just to teach the students these useful 
subjects but teach the way to learn.
