The Social Value of the College-Bred - 英语演讲稿

of what use is a college training? we who have had it seldom hear The question raised might be a little nonplussed to answer it offhand. a certain amount of meditation has brought me to this as The pithiest reply which i myself can give: The best claim that a college education can possibly make on your respect, The best thing it can aspire to accomplish for you, is this: that it should help you to know a good man when you see him. this is as true of womens as of mens colleges; but that it is neiTher a joke nor a one-sided abstraction i shall now endeavor to show.

what talk do we commonly hear about The contrast between college education and The education which business or technical or professional schools confer? The college education is called higher because it is supposed to be so general and so disinterested. at The schools you get a relatively narrow practical skill, you are told, whereas The colleges give you The more liberal culture, The broader outlook, The historical perspective, The philosophic atmosphere, or something which phrases of that sort try to express. you are made into an efficient instrument for doing a definite thing, you hear, at The schools; but, apart from that, you may remain a crude and smoky kind of petroleum, incapable of spreading light. The universities and colleges, on The oTher hand, although They may leave you less efficient for this or that practical task, suffuse your whole mentality with something more important than skill. They redeem you, make you well-bred; They make good company of you mentally. if They find you with a naturally boorish or caddish mind, They cannot leave you so, as a technical school may leave you. this, at least, is pretended; this is what we hear among college-trained people when They compare Their education with every oTher sort. now, exactly how much does this signify?

it is certain, to begin with, that The narrowest trade or professional training does something more for a man than to make a skilful practical tool of him鈥攊t makes him also a judge of oTher mens skill. wheTher his trade be pleading at The bar or surgery or plastering or plumbing, it develops a critical sense in him for that sort of occupation. he understands The difference between second-rate and first-rate work in his whole branch of industry; he gets to know a good job in his own line as soon as he sees it; and getting to know this in his own line, he gets a faint sense of what good work may mean anyhow, that may, if circumstances favor, spread into his judgments elsewhere. sound work, clean work, finished work; feeble work, slack work, sham work鈥攖hese words express an identical contrast in many different departments of activity. in so far forth, Then, even The humblest manual trade may beget in one a certain small degree of power to judge of good work generally.

now, what is supposed t ……此处隐藏8636个字……n cooking, people can’t find The interesting things from cooking. The most important thing is people are missing The joy of cooking from Their life.
