Small, moutainous and wealthy, with a population of just 7.5 million, Switzerland is well-known for its enviable quality of life in a country that ticks along like clockwork.. Its products are sought all over the world, from its delicious cheese and chocolate to luxurious watches whose timekeeping is as sharp as a Swiss Army Knife, another popular export from this Alpine nation. Switzerland’s famed political neutrality , financial power and isolated location, which is ring-fenced by breathtaking mountains, have enabled it to play a safe but central role in European affairs. The conveniently central locationin tne middle of Europe has also made Switzerland a favourite meeting place for conventions and international conferences – Geneva, for instance, is the headquarter of the United Nations. Switzeriand is not only a place for professionals, though. As a stylish tourist detination it offers such top ski resorts as Zermatt, Verbier and celebrity-studded St Moritz, while the white peaks of moutaina set against blue skies make a wonderful backdrop for summertime hiking. The ancient capital of Berne provides superb opportuinties for sightseeing, shopping and traditional folk entertainment while the largest city, Zurich leads the way in arts, design and nightlife, from opera and world-class theatre to stylish bars and nightclubs. Switzerland’s unique political model is based on consensus-building, and considering that the country consists of several culturally different groups speaking different language ( Swiss German, French, Italian and Romansh), its peaceful domestic situation is admirable. And while the Swiss in practice have been neutral in foreigh affairs for several centuries, they are increasingly willing to get more involved in world affairs and distribute the skills in democracy and diplomacy they have developed domestically on the international stage. Switzerland finally joined the United Nations in 2002, and signed the Schengen treaty in 2005, showing their support for the European Union.

The case for college has been accepted without question for more than a generation. All high school graduates ought to go, because college will help them earn more money, become “better” people, and learn to be more responsible citizens than those who don’t go.

But college has never been able to work its magic for everyone. And now that close to half our high school graduates are attending, those who don’t fit the pattern are becoming more and more, and more obvious. College graduates are selling shoes and driving taxis; college students get in the way of each other’s experiments and write false letters of recommendation in the competition for admission to graduate school. Others find no interest in their studies, and drop out—often encouraged by college administrators（教导主任）.

Some observers say the fault is with the young people themselves—they are spoiled and they are expecting too much. But that is a condemnation of the students as a whole, and does not explain all campus unhappiness. Others blame the state of the world, and they are partly right. We’ve been told that young people have to go to college because our economy cannot take in an army of untrained eighteen-year-olds. But disappointed graduates are learning that it can no longer take in an army of trained twenty-two-year-olds, either.

Some adventuresome educators and campus watchers have openly begun to suggest that college may not be the best, the proper, the only place for every young person after the completion of high school. We may have been looking at all those surveys upside down, it seems, and thinking of the rosy glow of our own remembered college experiences. Perhaps college does not make people intelligent, ambitious, happy, liberal, or quick to learn things—maybe it is just the other way round, and intelligent, ambitious, happy, liberal, quick-learning people are only the ones who have been attracted to college in the first place. And perhaps all those successful college graduates would have been successful whether they had gone to college or not. This is heresy（异端邪说）to those of us who have been brought up to believe that if a little schooling is good, more has to be much better. But opposite evidence is beginning to mount up.

1．According to the passage, the author believes that______.

A. people used to question the value of college education

A. society cannot provide enough jobs for properly trained college graduates

B. high school graduates do not fit the pattern of college education

But college has never been able to work its magic for everyone.
