12、escribed you like this: John Nash, an arrogant guy.M: Yeah. That is a word that has been used.W: Your arrogance back then was said to be monumental. You don’t know a crap, you would say to some of your fellow graduate students. How could you AccurateM: Well, I think the first one is probably i

16、 successfully concealed it from all but his mast intimate friends. The touching document addressed to his brothers in 1802, and known as his Will should be read in its entirety. He reproached men for their injustice in thinking and calling him pugnacious, stubborn, and misanthropical when they did n
17、ot know that for six years he had suffered from an incurable condition aggravated by incompetent doctors. He dwelled upon his delight in human society from which he had had so early to isolate himself, but the thought of which now filled him with dread as it made 14ira realize his loss, not in music
18、 but in all finer interchange of ideas. He requested that after his death his present doctor shall be asked to describe his illness and to append it to his document in order that at least then the world might be as far as possible reconciled with him. He left his brothers property, such as it was, i
19、f more conventional than the rest of the document.During the last twelve years of his life, his nephew was the cause of most of his anxiety and distress. His brother, Kaspar Karl died in 1815, leaving a widow and a son The boy turned out utterly unworthy of his uncle’s persistent devotion and
20、gave him every cause for anxiety. He failed in all his examinations, including an attempt to learn some trade in the polytechnic school, whereupon he fell into the hands of the police for at- tempting suicide, and after being expelled from Vienna, joined the army. Beethoven’s utterly simple na
21、ture could neither educate nor understand a human being who was not possessed by the wish to do his best. His nature was passionately affectionate, and he has suffered all his life from the want of a natural outlet for it. He had often been deeply in love and made no secret of it; there was no one t
22、hat was not honorable and respected by society as showing the truthfulness and self-control of a great man. Beethoven’s orthodoxy in such matters has provoked the smiles of Philistines, especially when it showed itself in his objections to Mozart, Don Giovanni and the grounds for selecting the
23、 subject of Fidelio for his own opera. The last thing that Philistines will never understand is that genius is far too independent of convention to abuse it; and Beethoven’s life, with all its mistakes, its grotesqueness, and its pathos, is as far beyond the shafts of Philistine wit as his art
24、.The sentence genius is far too independent of convention to abuse it implies that().Aan artist does not understand conventional moralityBPhilistines expect geniuses to be morally conventionalCBeethoven lived within a conventional moral codeDDon Giovanni abuses conventional standards11.M: How would

26、hoveling snow all winter.W: Where is this new jobM: In California. There won’t be any snow to shovel there, and we can go to the beach all the year round.W: That sounds pretty good, but What kind of job is itM: I would be the Director of Research for a big drug company near Los Angeles. I&rsqu
27、o;d get a big raise in salary.W: That sounds terribly exciting. But how about the children Will they like movingM: Why not California has many beautiful new schools, and Fred can go skiing up in the mountains.W: What about Paula I’m sure she won’t want to leave all her friends.M: Oh, she

30、high school, college or graduate school work. They attend classes designed especially for working people on weekends or at night. Other adults take classes by mail or on their computers. For example, the University of Arizona Extended University is one of many colleges now providing such courses.Oth
31、er adults learn job skills like computer science or woodworking. Still other adult students learn to read or improve their English.Some adult students are not trying to finish their education or learn job skills. Instead, they want to explore new interests. They want to learn to speak a foreign lang
32、uage, play a musical instrument or take good pictures. They attend continuing education programs at a community college or public school. For example, Montgomery College in Rockville, Maryland, offers many classes. They teach adults how to build a house or how to write their memoirs.An agency in the
33、 Federal Department of Education supervises public adult education programs. Also, the government offers classes in many subjects for adults through the departments of Agriculture and Defense. So do private companies, labor unions and other organizations. These subjects include the arts, science and
34、 business.Adult education classes meet in schools, public libraries and business offices. They also meet in religious centers and shopping centers. Classes in nature sciences and sports often take place outside.Which is NOT the purpose of the adult students taking part in adult programs ()ATo finish
35、 their education.BTo learn job skills.CTo explore new interests.DTo develop their brains.13.For centuries, explorers have risked their lives venturing into the unknown for reasons that were to varying degrees economic and nationalistic. Columbus went west to look for better trade routes to the Orien
36、t and to promote the greater glory of Spain. Lewis and Clark journeyed into the American wilderness to find out what the US had acquired when it purchased Louisiana, and the Appolo astronauts rocketed to the moon in a dramatic show of technological muscle during the cold war.Although their missions
37、blended commercial and political-military imperatives, the explorers involved all accomplished some significant science simply by going where no scientists had gone.Today Mars looms as humanity’s next great terra incognita. And with doubtful prospects for a short- term financial return, with t
38、he cold war a rapidly fading memory and amid a growing emphasis on international cooperation in large space ventures, it is-clear that imperatives other than profits or nationalism will have to compel human beings to leave their tracks on the planet’s reddish surface. Could it be that science.
39、 which has long played a minor role in exploration, is at last destined to take a leading role The question naturally invites a couple of others: Are there experiments that only humans could do on Mars Could those experiments pro- vide insights profound enough to justify the expense of sending peopl
40、e across interplanetary spaceWith Mars the scientific stakes are arguably higher than they have ever been. The issue of whether life ever existed on the planet, and whether it persists to this day, has been highlighted by mounting evidence that the Red Planet had abundant stable, liquid water and by
41、 the continuing controversy over suggestions that bacterial fossils rode to Earth on a meteorite from Mars. A more conclusive answer about life on Mars, past or present, would give researchers invaluable data about the range of conditions under which a planet can generate the complex chemistry that
42、leads to life, If it could be established that life arose independently on Mars and Earth, the finding would provide the first concrete clues in one of the deepest mysteries in all of science: the prevalence of life in the universe.According to the passage, the chief purpose of explorers in going to
43、 unknown places in the past was ().Ato display their country’s military mightBto accomplish some significant scienceCto find new areas for colonizationDto pursue commercial and state interests14.During the adolescence, the development of political ideology becomes apparent in the individual: i
44、deology here is defined as the presence of roughly consistent attitudes, more or less organized in reference to a more encompassing set of general principles. As such, political ideology is dim or absent at the beginning of adolescence. Its acquisition by the adolescent, in even the most modest sens
45、e, requires the acquisition of relatively sophisticated cognitive skills; the ability to manage abstractness, to synthesize and generalize, to imagine the future. These are accompanied by a steady advance in the ability to understand principles.The child’s rapid acquisition of political knowle
46、dge also promotes the growth of political ideology during adolescence. By knowledge I mean more than the dull facts such as the composition of country government, that the child is exposed to in the conventional ninth-grade school course. Nor do I mean only information on current political realities
47、. These are facts of knowledge, but they are less critical than the adolescent’s absorption of a feeling for those many unspoken assumptions about the political system that comprise the common ground of understanding, for example, what the state can appropriately demand of its citizens, and vi
48、ce versa, or the proper relationship of government to subsidiary social institutions, such as the schools and churches. Thus, political knowledge is the awareness of social assumptions and relationships as well as of objective facts. Much of the naivete that characterizes the younger adolescent’s grasp of politics stems not from an ignorance of facts but from an incomplete comprehension of the common conventions of the system, of which is and not customarily done, and of
