Question : Comprehension:
Read the given passage and answer the questions that follow.
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 believed that talent and intelligence are not distributed genetically and thus can be found in children born to all classes, although 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.

Question:
Children who are imparted the highest education would be responsible for:

Option 1: developing talent and skills

Option 2: inculcating good habits

Option 3: guarding the city

Option 4: teaching the illiterate

Team Careers360 15th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: guarding the city


Solution : The third option is the correct choice.

In Plato's philosophy, particularly outlined in The Republic, children who receive the highest education are expected to be responsible for guarding the city.

Explanation:
Plato proposes a system in The Republic where education is a key element, and he advocates for the differentiation of children suitable to various castes. The highest caste, according to Plato, would receive the most education. These highly educated individuals are envisioned to serve as guardians of the city. Their role is not only to protect the city but also to care for those who are less able.
