和

And
MacDonalds

Q4

Among the reasons for

today
there are more choices on the

Q19
：
Some people
say if kids didn
‘
t happen to
go to
school
，
they
’
d all be out in the
streets
。
My reply is
no
。
They
< br>wouldn
‘
t
。
First
，
even
as
schools
stay
just
what
they
are
，
children would spend at
least some time there
because
that
’
s where they would be
likely to find their
friends
。
Q20
：
Second
，
schools
wouldn
‘
t
stay
the
way
they
are
。
They
’
d get
better
。
Because we would
have to start
making
them
what
they
ought
to be
right now
。
Last
，
if
we
give children a little
help
，
those who did not want
to go
to school
，
could find other things to
do
，
since many
children now do during their
holidays
。
Q21
：
There is
something easier we
could
。
We need to get kids
out of the
school buildings to give
them a chance to learn about the
outside world at first
hand
。
In Philadelphia and
Oregon
，
plans
are
being
drawn
up
for
public
schools
that
won
‘
t
have
any school buildings at
all
。
That will take the
students
out into the city and help
them to use it and its people
as a
resource
。
In others
words
，
students
，
perhaps in
groups
，
perhaps
independently
，
will go to
libraries
，
museums
，

，

，
