| B．What is the present situation? |
| C．The purposes in Adult Education |
| D．Ways of Adult Education |
F. What is Adult Education?
61
Voluntary learning in organized courses by mature men and women is called adult education. Such education is offered to make people able to enlarge and interpret their experience as adults. Adults may want to study something which they missed in earlier schooling, get new skills or job training, find out about new technological development, seek better self-understanding, or develop new talents and skills.
62
This kind of education may be in the form of self-study with proper guidance through the use of libraries, correspondence(函授)courses,or broadcasting.It may also be acquired collectively in schools and colleges, study groups, workshops, clubs, and professional associations.
63
Modern adult education for large numbers of people started in the 18th and 19th centuries with the rise of the Industrial Revolution. Great economic and social changes were taking place: people were moving from rural areas to cities: new types of work were being created in an expanding factory system. These and other factors produced a need for further education and reeducation of adults.
64
The earliest program of organized adult education arose in Great Britain in the 1790s, with the founding of an adult school at Nottingham and a mechanics’institute at Glasgow. The earliest adult education institution in the United States was founded by Benjamin Franklin and some friends in Philadelphia in 1727.
65
People recognize that continued learning is necessary for most forms of employment today. For example, parts of the adult population in many countries find it necessary to take part in retraining programs at work or even to learn completely new jobs. Adult education programs are springing up constantly to meet these and other needs.

Long long ago, there was an old merchant who had three sons。 “To which one shall I leave my fortune?” he wondered。 “It must be to the cleverest son。 But which one is the cleverest?”
He called his three sons to him。 “Here is some money,” he told them, “you must each take one coin to buy something that will fill this room。 Anyone who can do this shall have my fortune。”
“It is a big room,” said the eldest son。
“One coin will not buy very much,” said the second son。
But the youngest son said nothing。 He stood and thought, and then he smiled, “Come, brothers,” he said, “let us go to the market。”
The eldest son bought straw with his coin。 But one coin bought only a bit of straw。 Even when he had spread it as much as he could, the straw covered only a corner of the room。
The second son bought sand with his coin。 But one coin bought only a bit of sand。 Even when he had spread it as much as he could, the sand covered only half of the floor。
“What did you buy?” the eldest son angrily asked the youngest son。 “You don"t have any straw。”
“Yes, what did you buy?” the second son asked angrily。 “You don"t have any sand。”
“I bought this,” said the youngest son。
“A candle！” cried his brothers。 “What good is a candle?”
“Watch”, said the youngest son。
He lit the candle, and all at once the room was filled from wall to wall, from ceiling to floor。 It was filled with light!
“Although you are the youngest, you are indeed the cleverest of my sons,” the old merchant said。
And that is how, the old merchant left his fortune to his youngest son, the one who could fill a room with light。

Most people feel lonely sometimes, but it usually only lasts between a few minutes and a few hours.
This kind of loneliness is not serious. In fact, it is quite normal. For some people, though, loneliness can last for years. Now researchers say there are three different types of loneliness.
The first kind of loneliness is temporary. This is the most common type. It usually disappears quickly
and does not require any special attention. The second kind, situation—for example, family problem, the death of a loved one, or moving to a new place. Although this kind of loneliness can cause physical problems, such as headaches and sleeplessness, it usually does not last for more than a year.
The third kind of loneliness is the most severe. Unlike the second type, chronic（the opposite of
“temporary”）usually lasts more than two years and has no specific cause. People who experience habitual loneliness have problems socializing and becoming close to others. Unfortunately, many chronically lonely people think there is little or nothing they can do to improve their condition.
Psychologists agree that one important factor in loneliness is a person’s social contacts, for example,
friends, family members, co-workers, etc. we depend on various people for different reasons. For instance, our families give us emotional support, our parents and teachers give us guidance, and our friends share similar interests and activities. However, psychologists have found that, though lonely people may have many social contacts, they sometimes feel they should have more. They question their popularity.
Psychologists are trying to find ways to help habitually lonely people for two reasons: they are unhappy and unable to socialize and there is a connection between chronic loneliness and serious illness as heart disease, while temporary and situational loneliness can be a sad, and sometimes dangerous condition.

| We depend on a wide 87 of people for different reasons. For instance, our families give us emotional support. | |

Five Happiness Secrets For Tough Times
Sonja Lyubomirsky, an author, has researched the science of happiness for years.
Here are her tips to help you cope with a bad economy, and increase your bursts
of happiness throughout the day.
61. ________
“You could spend a lot of time thinking deeply,” says Lyubomirsky. “But that
just makes you feel even more pessimistic, more out of control, and effects your self
esteem. Your relationships will suffer and your job performance will suffer.”
Get rid of pessimism. One of the most effective ways to cope when things are
difficult is to adopt a positive thinking strategy. “What can I learn from this? Times
are tough, I’ve been furloughed at work, but I can spend more time with the kids,
adopt a new hobby, or learn a new set of skills.”
62. ________
Now more than ever we need each other to survive. Lyubomirsky found that doing
good things for friends, family, or strangers can make you happier. Think of practical,
everyday gestures that can make someone’s life a little bit easier. For example,
Lyubomirsky says, “Maybe now many of us can’t afford to take a cab to the airport, so
offer to give a friend a ride.”
63. ________
You don’t need an expert to tell you that relationships are critical to happiness.
Not being the bread-winner anymore or not being able to fulfill your kid’s needs can
weighh down hard on your family life. But the trick is to stop feeling guilty and focus
on caring for your loved ones.
“I was at a psychology conference where an expert was talking about the effects
of this economy on families and how parents can’t afford to buy their kids luxuries
like toys anymore,” says Lyubomirsky. “But what they don’t realize is that kids don’t
care about toys — what they care about is parents being grumpy and taking it out on
them.”
64. ________
“If you find a happy person you will find a project,” says Lyubomirsky. “Happy
people all have goals they care about.”
Commit yourself to a project – whether it is a business you want to start or a dance
you want to learn. But it’s also important to remember to be flexible in these times.
Don’t get frustrated if circumstances are stopping you from meeting your goals. Adopt
and change!
“If your spouse has lost their job you might have to change your goal,” says
Lyubomirsky. “Or you might have to learn a whole new skill for a new job.”
65. ________
When times are tough, it’s easy to get skip your regular workouts in favor of moping
in front of the TV and eating a bag of chips. Your thinking is “I have more important
things to worry about right now than looking good.”
But carve out a small part of your day to give your body some TLC. It will go a
long way in boosting your happiness. “Even if you can’t afford to go to the gym,”
Lyubomirsky says, “take time out to exercise at home.”
You don"t need an expert to tell your that relationships are critical to happiness. Not
being the bread-winner anymore or not being able to fulfill your kid"s needs can weigh
down hard on your family life. But the trick is to stop feeling guilty and focus on
bringing up your loved ones.
