What is a good education? The question is far from being answered. Once more, colleges and universities are changing their programs: they drop fun courses and restart some of the traditional subjects neglected (忽视) since the 1960s. Many great schools are again requiring the students to take a number of classes in English, history, literature, the social sciences, philosophy, the natural sciences, and art if they want to get a degree. Meanwhile, the experts are trying to describe the good education of our time. Obviously the purely vocational training once favored is not enough. But neither is the gentleman's education of the nineteenth century. Educational programs must meet the demands of a modern world where men and women have to work and to deal with big problems.
What, then, is a good education of this century? Some educators suggest that it should include foreign languages and the study of foreign cultures; a mastery of English, including the ability to write and speak well, because munications have bee all-important in the modern world, and also because a person who doesn't speak and write clearly doesn't reason clearly either; some knowledge of the social sciences (sociology, psychology) that deal with human relations and human problems; some basic knowledge of modern science, which would enable future voters to be better informed about current problems like nuclear. Finally, many educators insist that all college graduates should be familiar with puters and modern information system since the educated professionals of tomorrow will have to understand their machines. Is that all? No, of course not. answer the educators. We have not mentioned the two great building blocks of education: history and literature!

解析：
71．答案：C解析：本题考查主旨大意。纵观全文，不难发现作者围绕“What is a good education?”这一问题展开议论，而且在第一和第二自然段的首句明确交代这一主题。A项扩大了话题范围，文章不是泛泛谈论“教育”而是谈论“好教育”；B、D两项概括片面。故正确答案C。
72．答案：A解析：本题考查词义猜测。结合上下文分析，由上句的change和后面的restart(重新开始)，可以判断出“drop”应含有和“重新开始”相反的意思，desert“舍弃、遗弃”，dislike“不喜欢、厌恶”，decline“下降、减少”，neglect“忽视”，故正确答案A。
73．答案：D解析：该题属推理判断题。由文章第一段第二句“The question is far from being answered.”可知，“这个问题远远没有得到回答”，以及文章最后一句话可知这一问题没有获得满意的答案，所以正确答案D。
74．答案：B解析：该题属细节理解题。由第二段“Some educators suggest that …a mastery of English, including the ability to write and speak well, because munications have bee all-important in the modern world…”可以很容易地判断答案应是B。
75．答案：D解析：该题为正误判断题。由第一段的尾句：Educational programs must meet the demands of a modern world where men and women have to work and to deal with big problems.可知A项正确；由第一段的Many great schools are again requiring the students… if they want to get a degree.可知B项正确；由第二段的Some educators suggest that it should include foreign languages and the study of foreign cultures可知C项正确；D项在文中没有涉及，故答案D
