Answer:
I think he´s (partly) right
Explanation:
Partly right because yes, colleges are flooded with individuals who seem to be out of place and not learning anything that they could have learned outside the school building. Murray´s essay follows quite clearly the opinion of Noam Chomsky. The strategical creation of a separated American class system is a daring theory that needs some (personal) coments because of its elitist element, i.e. we who study have (keep) the power.
Two examples:
México is a democracy in name where the powerful and rich people send their kids - no matter how stupid they are - to college schools and private universities that only exist as the entry door to a well-paid job. And even if you don´t go to university you can always buy your degree, as former president Fox did.
Germany is a real democracy that has a social education system. It is costly but the economic support (bafug in German) for students is based on how much your parents earn. If your parents are poor you get more money per month to study and vice versa.
Now kindly look at the American educational system and see if it resembles more the Mexican or the German system.
Answer:
The correct answer would be C.Ahead of the pack
Answer:
C. They are unlikely to follow conventional paths in life.
Explanation:
Answer C
Correct. The author tells the Class of 1990 that they “need not, probably cannot, live a ‘paint-by-numbers’ [formulaic or conventional] life” because they “have a first class education from a first class school.” She uses this as an opportunity to offer her audience advice on how to approach the unconventional lives they should look forward to by asking them to “consider making three very special choices”: to “believe in something larger than yourself,” to find “the joy in life,” and to “cherish your human connections.”
