Sme high schl students think it useless t receive higher educatin. Therefre, they chse nt t g t cllege. If yu're ne f them, think again. Here are sme reasns why yu shuld g t cllege and receive a gd educatin there.
Schls and universities are the first places t get knwledge. We take that knwledge later n t build ur careers after graduatin. Mre knwledge will be gained after yu start wrking, but withut educatin, that jb will nt be within easy reach. Knwledge leads t knwledge.

A gd educatin makes yu a mre interesting persn. Yu can talk abut ideas and events instead f just ther peple and what's n sale in stres. An educated persn desn't gssip（说闲话）, having a preference t discuss ideas and listen t what ther peple have t say.
28. What can we learn abut cllege educatin frm Paragraph 2?

If yu want t help children develp language and speech skills, UCLA researchers say, listening t what they have t say is just as imprtant as talking t them.
The effect f a cnversatin between a child and an adult is abut six times as great as the effect f adult speech input alne, the researchers fund.“Adults speaking t children helps language develp, but what matters much mre is the interactin,” said the study’s lead authr, Frederick Zimmerman, an assciate prfessr in the Schl f Public Health at the University f Califrnia, Ls Angeles. The researchers als fund that TV viewing didn’t have much f an effect-psitively r negatively-as lng as it wasn’t displacing cnversatins between an adult and a child.
The UCLA study included 275 families with children between 2 mnths and 48 mnths ld. They represented a variety f incmes and educatin. The researchers fund that, in an average day, children hear abut 13,000 spken wrds frm adults and participated in abut 400 adult-child cnversatins a day.
Assessed separately, factrs psitively assciated with language develpment included each additinal 100 cnversatins a day and each 1,000 wrds increase in the number f wrds spken by adults and heard by children.When lked at alne, TV was negatively assciated with language develpment.But, when the three factrs were analyzed tgether, the nly ne that std ut was cnversatin between adults and children.
“The mre a child speaks and interacts with an adult, the better idea a parent has abut where the child is,”Zimmerman said.“Althugh it’s mstly dne uncnsciusly, parents will prvide feedback and crrect mistakes. They’ll als tailr their speech t the child. Parents can give a child wrds by talking t them abut what they’re ding,such as,‘I’m putting n yur pajamas nw’. But give yur child the pprtunity t talk, hpefully withut the rest f the nise in the envirnment,” she added.“If parents can carve ut sme cnversatin time-maybe at bath time r at dinner time-that’s a wnderful thing.”
researchers als fund that TV viewing______.
A.culd have a psitive effect n a child’s language develpment
B.had a little effect n a child’s language develpment
C.affected a child’s language develpment mre negatively than psitively
D.affected a child’s language develpment bth negatively and psitively
33 .Frederick Zimmerman wuld prbably agree that____.
A.parents shuld let their children talk mst f the time
B.children shuld watch TV prgrams selectively
C.the cnversatin between parents and children shuld be tw-way
D.it’s n gd fr parents t crrect their children’s mistakes when they are speaking
34.We can cnclude frm the last paragraph that_____.
A.parents shuld let a child repeat what he r she says
B.bath time r dinner time is the best chance fr parents t talk t a child
C.parent-child cnversatin can be carried ut at any prper time
