教育与文明传承的问题。
If education is the transmission of civilization,we are unquestionably progressing.Civilization is inherited; it has to be learned and earned by each generation anew; if the transmission should be interrupted for one century,civilization would die,and we should be savages again.So our finest modern achievement is our spending of wealth and toil which never have been known before in the provision of higher education for all.Once colleges were luxuries,designed for the male half of the leisured class; today universities are so numerous that he who runs may become a Ph.D.We may not have been better than the selected geniuses of the past,but we have raised the level and average of knowledge beyond any age in history。 只搜到这一段,还有一自然段找不到。

大自然也力求确保种子分散在广阔的面积,并远离母株。这一点很重要,其原因有二:一是如果母株被毁,幼株将有更多的成活击毁;二是幼苗和母株之间以及幼苗和幼苗之间不致争夺养料。
