2. Modern society is so complex that people must be literate to cope.
Most of the best jobs depend not on physical labour and strength as they did in an agrarian economy, but on literacy and knowledge of
often very complex activities and issues. Many jobs depend on analysing a whole mass of data and working out a logical solution.
Even the humblest jobs still benefit from education.
Health services are essential to help prevent and cure illnesses and to allow people to live longer and healthier, happy lives. Some aspects of medicine treat illnesses and accidents when they have already occurred, while others try to prevent the illnesses happening with inoculations , vaccinations , and health training , even in such seemingly simple matters as what foods to eat and what not to eat. There is good scope here for class discussion. There are still manual jobs to be don e , like cleaning the streets , digging ditches , a n d agriculture.

There is good scope here for class discussion. There are still manual jobs to be done, like cleaning the
streets, digging ditches, and agriculture. Do we really need education for these? This is a problem
even in the developed world, though a little less. In the West, it has been at least partly solved by
immigrants from Africa, Asia, and Eastern Europe. But there still remains the problem of what to do
with the indigenous people in any country who are not intelligent enough to read and write. (Provide
vocational skills to make them employable.)
Remember that education empowers people by making them aware of their rights, and not just about
what is happening around them—information can be had from TV and radio, but being able to read
and write means being able to keep records, plan for oneself and one’s family, and lead a better life.
Perhaps impress on the class how fortunate they are to be able to read and write.
The health services are advanced with well-equipped private and public hospitals and qualified
doctors and paramedical staff in the cities and towns. The rural areas however lack the same level of
medical services and serious cases are often brought to the cities. However, life expectancy has
improved and people live longer; more children survive infancy so that the population soars.
L iteracy: Literacy rate is low: males 62% and females 35% overall, while the figures are lower in the
rural areas, while life expectancy is 63 years for males and 65 for females. Compare this with life
expectancy rates in developed countries (Japan: 83.5 years, highest in the world).world).
