Direction: Read the following passage and answer the given questions

Philosophy of Education is a label applied to the study of the purpose, process, nature
and ideals of education. It can be considered a branch of both philosophy and
education. Education can be defined as the teaching and learning of specific skills,
and the imparting of knowledge, judgment and wisdom, and is something broader
than the societal institution of education we often speak of.

Many educationalists consider it a weak and woolly field, too far removed from the
practical applications of the real world to be useful. But philosophers dating back to
Plato and the Ancient Greeks have given the area much thought and emphasis, and
there is little doubt that their work has helped shape the practice of education over the
millennia.

Plato is the earliest important educational thinker, and education is an essential
element in “The Republic” (his most important work on philosophy and political
theory, written around 360 B.C.). In it, he advocates some rather extreme methods:
removing children from their mothers’ care and raising them as wards of the state, and
differentiating children suitable to the various castes, the highest receiving the most
education, so that they could act as guardians of the city and care for the less able. He
believed that education should be holistic, including facts, skills, physical discipline,
music and art. Plato’s beliefs regarding education was very democratic in that he
believed that talent and intelligence are not distributed genetically and thus is to be
found in children born to all classes; however, his proposed system of selective public
education for an educated minority of the population does not really follow a
democratic model.

Aristotle considered human nature, habit and reason to be equally important forces to
be cultivated in education, the ultimate aim of which should be to produce good and
virtuous citizens. He proposed that teachers lead their students systematically, and
that repetition be used as a key tool to develop good habits, unlike Socrates’ emphasis
on questioning his listeners to bring out their own ideas. He emphasized the balancing
of the theoretical and practical aspects of subjects taught, among which he explicitly
mentions reading, writing, mathematics, music, physical education, literature, history,
and a wide range of sciences, as well as play, which he also considered important.

During the Medieval period, the idea of Perennialism was first formulated by St.
Thomas Aquinas in his work “De Magistro”. Perennialism holds that one should teach
those things deemed to be of everlasting importance to all people everywhere, namely
principles and reasoning, not just facts (which are apt to change over time), and that
one should teach first about people, not machines or techniques. It was originally
religious in nature, and it was only much later that a theory of secular perennialism
developed.

During the Renaissance, the French skeptic Michel de Montaigne (1533 - 1592) was
one of the first to critically look at education. Unusually for his time, Montaigne was
willing to question the conventional wisdom of the period, calling into question the
whole edifice of the educational system, and the implicit assumption that university-
educated philosophers were necessarily wiser than uneducated farm workers, for
example.

(A) Aristotle felt the need for repetition to develop good habits in students;

(B) Aristotle felt the need for rote-learning; Socrates emphasized on dialogic
learning
(C) There was no difference
Aristotle emphasized on the importance of paying attention to human nature;
(D)
Socrates emphasized upon science

(A) It is not practically applicable
(B) Its theoretical concepts are easily understood
(C) It is irrelevant for education
(D) None of the above

comprehension passage?

(A) It refers to something which is of ceaseless importance

(D) It refers to something which existed in the past and no longer exists now

39. Were Plato’s beliefs about education democratic?

(B) Plato’s beliefs were democratic but not his suggested practices
