问题     It is commonly believed that in the United States school is where people get an education. Nevertheless, it has been said that today children interrupt their education to go to school. The【C1】________ between schooling and education implied by this remark is important.
    Education is much more open-ended and all-inclusive than schooling.
    Education has no【C2】________ . 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【C3】________ learning that takes place in school and the whole universe of informal leaning. The agents of education can【C4】________ 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(n)【C5】________ conversation with a stranger may lead a person to discover how little is known of other religions. People are【C6】________ 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,【C7】________ process, whose general pattern varies little from one setting to the next. Throughout a country, children arrive at school at【C8】________ the same time, take assigned seats, use similar textbooks, 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 governments, have usually been limited by the boundaries of the【C9】________ being taught.
    For example, high-school students know that they are not likely to【C10】________ out in their classes the truth about political problems in their communities or what the newest filmmakers are experimenting with.
    A. formalized        B. accurately      C. figure           D. stretch
    E. engaged           F. similarity      G. subject          H. automatic
    I. chance            J. range           K. distinction      L. divisional
    M. approximately     N. bounds          O. formal [br] 【C1】
选项
答案 K
解析 词义辨析题。根据词性，此处填入名词。可选范围有 “figure(数字)，similarity(相似性)，subject(科目)，distinction (区别)，bounds(界限)”，根据空后的介词between可排除选项figure和subject，且上句中的nevertheless表明此段是在讨论schooling和education的区别，故选distinction。
