25.There are two major forms of post secondary education. 26.Post secondary education is compulsory in Australia 27.Fewer than 50%of children attended secondary school before 1939. 28.Major changes in education occurred in the latter half of the 20th century. 29.By the 1990s,a higher percentage of women than men had post secondary qualifications. 30.The expansion of education has meant that there is now no social inequality in access to higher education in Australia. Part 2:Questions 31-35 are based on this part.(10 points,2 points each) What kind of people are these construction workers? They drive into town in big cars,and live in furnished rooms,and drink whiskey with beer chasers,and chase women they will soon forget.They linger only a little while,only until they have built the bridge;then they are off again to another town,another bridge, linking everything but their lives. They possess none of the foundation of their bridges.They are part circus,part gypsy- graceful in the air,restless on the ground;it is as if the wide-open road below lacks for them the clear direction of an eight-inch beam stretching across the sky six hundred feet above the sea. When there are no bridges to be built,they will build skyscrapers,or highways,or power dams,or anything that promises a challenge-and overtime.They will go anywhere, will drive a thousand miles all day and night to be part of a new building boom.They find boom towns irresistible.that is why they are called "the boomers. In appearance,boomers usually are big men,or if not always big,always strong,and their skin is ruddy from all the sun and wind.Some who heat rivets have charred complexions;some who drive rivets are hard of hearing;some who catch rivets in small metal cones have blisters and body burns marking each miss;some who do welding see flashes at night while they sleep.Those who connect steel have deep scars along their shins from climbing columns.Many boomers have mangled hands and fingers sliced off by slipped steel.Most have taken falls and broken a limb or two.All have seen death. 9725.
