  3. functions of education:
    1. to be smart
    2. we cannot be bullied by anyone
    3. have wide knowledge
    4. not easily tricked by people
    5. as a way for us to have better jobs, better salary, and better life
    6. to achieve higher status in society

    That's all I can think right now. Maybe others can add more?
