Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions.
[I] Lifelong learning is the ongoing, voluntary, and
self-motivated pursuit
of knowledge for personal or
professional development (Knowles, 2020). [II] This concept emphasizes that learning does not stop after formal education,
but rather continues throughout an individual's life, adapting to changing circumstances and needs. [III] In today’s fast-
paced world, where technology and job markets evolve rapidly, lifelong learning has become increasingly essential. [IV]
One of the primary benefits of lifelong learning is its ability to enhance employability. Individuals who engage in
continuous education are more likely to keep their skills relevant and competitive in the job market. According to a report by
the World Economic Forum (2021), over 50% of employees will need reskilling due to technological advancements in the
coming years. Lifelong learners are better equipped to adapt to these changes, making them more attractive candidates for
employers.
Moreover, lifelong learning contributes to personal fulfillment and mental well-being. Engaging in new learning
experiences can stimulate the brain, foster creativity, and improve cognitive function. Research indicates that individuals who
pursue learning opportunities throughout their lives tend to report higher levels of happiness and life satisfaction (Smith &
Johnson, 2019). Whether it is taking a course, learning a new language, or picking up a new hobby, the process of acquiring
knowledge can be
enriching
and enjoyable.
In addition, lifelong learning promotes social engagement and community involvement. Participating in educational
programs or community workshops can foster connections with others who share similar interests. This social aspect of
learning can enhance one's sense of belonging and support networks, which are crucial for mental health (Jones, 2022).
Overall, lifelong learning is not just an individual responsibility;
it
requires support from educational institutions,
employers, and communities to create an environment conducive to continuous education. By fostering a culture of learning,
society can better prepare individuals for the challenges of the future and ensure that everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
