Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the arch for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind. The passions, like great winds, have blown me hither and thither, in a wayward cour over a deep ocean of anguish, reaching to the very verge of despair.
I have sought love, first, becau it brings ecstasy—ecstasy so great that I would often have sacrificed all the rest of my life for a few hours for this joy. I have sought it, next, becau it relieves loneliness—that terrible loneliness in which one shivering consciousness looks over the rim of the world into the cold unfathomable lifeless abyss. I have sought it, finally, becau in the union of love I have en, in a mystic miniature, the prefiguring vision of the heaven that saints and poets have imagined. This is what I sought, and though it might em too good for human life, this is what—at last—I have found.风马牛不相及意思
With equal passion I have sought knowledge. I have wished to understand the hearts of men. I have wished to know why the stars shine. And I have tried to apprehend the Pythagorean (毕达哥拉斯) power by which number holds sway above the flux. A little of this, but not much, I have achieved.
Love and knowledge, so far as they were possible, led upward toward the heavens. But always pity brought me back to earth. Echoes of cries of pain reverberate in my heart. Children in famine, victims tortured by oppressors, helpless old people a hated burden to their sons, and the whole world of loneliness, poverty, and pain make a mockery (嘲弄) of what human life should be. I long to alleviate (减少) the evil, but I cannot, and I too suffer.
This has been my life. I have found it worth living, and would gladly live it again if the chance were offered me.
24. Which would be the best title of the essay?
A. The suffering of life.
B. The truth about love.
C. The forces driving me.
D. The power of knowledge.
25. What does the author compa re his life’s passion to?
A. The shining stars.
B. Great winds.
C. A bottomless abyss.
D. A boundless ocean.
26. Which is NOT a reason why the author has sought love?
A. It relieves loneliness.
B. It brings ecstasy.
C. It provides a glimp of heaven.
D. It leads to a marriage.
27. What would the author most probably agree with?
A. He regrets that he could not free himlf of pity.
B. Human love is ultimately disappointing.
C. Heaven is merely a poetic invention.
D. A loving person naturally wants to relieve the suffering of others.
C
For many years, school children in the US have been taken on “field trips” to cultural institutions such as muums of art. Educators arrange them in the belief that schools exist not only to teach economically uful skills, but also to produce civilized young people who appreciate the art and culture. While there are parents who will take their children to cultural places in their free time, there are plenty of other children who will never have this kind of opportunity unless schools offer it. So you could say that taking school students on field trips is a means of giving everyone equal access to their cultural heritage.
However, the attitude towards field trips in recent years is changing, with the number of tours organized for school groups falling significantly in muums all around the country. The most obvious reason is the issue of finance. Becau there are increasing demands on their funds, after all, computers and sports facilities aren’t cheap, schools are forced to make a difficult choice about how to spend the limited money they have. Faced with this dilemma, field trips are an obvious thing to cut since they are en by many as a luxury.
Additionally, the nature of the field days is also changing. Schools increasingly u trips to amument parks or sporting events as a treat for students rather than an opportunity for cultural learning. This shift could have a basis in generational differences between tea chers’ reasons for organizing days out of school. A recent survey conducted among 500 Arkansas teachers showed that older teachers were significantly more likely to take the primary purpo of a field trip as a learning experience than younger teachers, who view it as fun.
Some evidence shows the trend of fewer trips may have a negative effect on children’s development. A rearch led by Jay Greene at Arkansas University found that students who received a tour of an art muum greatly improved their knowledge of and the ability to think critically about art. They also display stronger historical interest and were more likely to visit cultural places in the fut
ure. The rearchers warn that if schools cut field trips or switch to less educational destinations, valuable opportunities to broaden and enrich children’s learning experiences are lost.
28. What is the initial purpo of field trips to cultural institutions?
A. To teach students uful skills in economics.
B. To make every student expod to art and culture.
C. To educate students to prerve cultural heritage.
D. To encourage parents to take their children there.
29. Which factor most probably leads to the trend of fewer field trips?
A. The drop in school funds.
B. Students’ demand for fun.
C. The dilemma of school finance.
D. Teacher s’ generational differences.
30. What does the underlined phra “This shift” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The switch from old generations to young generations.
B. The switch from sporting events to cultural experiences.
布帆C. The change from an opportunity to learn to a treat to entertain.
