To start with, you need questions. Then, to find answers, you observe the world around you and study the facts. After that you consider possible answers and test each to find the right ones. Although today we are more accustomed to typing a few key words into a search engine and waiting for the Internet to spit the answer out for us, modern scientists and thinkers are still solving the worlds problems with this type of analysisluckily for us. However, in the 17th century when Francis Bacon suggested that this type of thinking was the way to gain knowledge, he was going against the views of the day. At that time, people believed more in religion than in facts, and people like Galileo Galilei, who proved scientific ideas such as “the earth is not the centre of the universe”, were often punished by the church with no one coming to their defence. The church and many people tended to ignore the facts and were unwilling to challenge what they had always comfortably believed. They preferred to make assumptions about the world based on the experience of others. In fact, when Galilei proved that the earth was not the centre of the universe, instead of believing him, people chose to believe ancient views put forward by the great philosopher Aristotle (384-322 BC). This also shows how people didnt want to search for their own understanding or educate themselves. And this is still often true today. People feel that if someone important and respected says that something is right, then it must be so. But even though Aristotle was a great man who inspired many great scientists and philosophers after him, he was wrong at times. And Galilei too made mistakes. He is now known as the father of astronomy but he believed that the earth moved round the sun in a perfect circle. He was wrong. Therefore our understanding of the world around us is constantly growing and changing. In other words, we learn more every day and none of us can ever sit back and say “We know it all”.We need to thank the great men of the past for the wisdom to know that we dont know it all and probably never will, for that would mean a world without questions. So much of our knowledge and understanding of the world today is due to people like Bacon and Galilei, who were brave enough to step out from the shadows of old thoughts in order to find the kingdom of knowledge that todays civilization is built upon. These men knew that knowledge and understanding are things to fight for; more vital to a man, and more beneficial to mankind, some might say, than all the money in the world. “All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them.” Galileo Galilei (1564-1642)59. In Bacon and Galileos times, people would prefer to _.A. learn new things by observing the world around themselvesB. acquire knowledge from church or experience of great ancestorsC. seek answers to their puzzles from contemporary scientistsD. explore knowledge out of facts they saw with their own eyes60. In this passage Bacon and Galileo is mentioned as examples for _.A. their great achievements in scienceB. their ambition to doubt great ancestorsC. their revolutionary way of acquiring knowledge D. their preference to believe in themselves rather than others61. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To help the readers learn more about great thinkers in history. B. To convince the readers of the importance of thinking and discovering. C. To persuade the readers to thank the great men of the past for their wisdom. D. To encourage the readers to go against the views of their day.62. Which of the following is the process the writer suggests to acquire knowledge? A. Asking questions searching the internet waiting for results finding answers B. Acquiring knowledge and understanding asking questions answering questions C. Observing the world asking questions studying facts finding answers considering possibilities D. Asking questions observing the world studying facts considering possibilities testing and finding answersCAt 10 p.m., I met Holmes outside his house as arranged. With him were two men. The police officer, Peter Jones, I already knew. He had often helped us out in our little adventures. The other gentleman was Mr. Merryweather. He was the manager of the bank we had seen that morning in Short Street. When we got to the bank, Mr. Merryweather opened the door with a large key and we all crept silently down into the basement. The floor of the basement was covered in large square stones and the room was filled with wooden boxes. “Thats our French gold,” explained Mr. Merryweather. “We borrowed it some months ago from a French bank to use in a business deal. As it happens, we didnt need it after all, so it was never unpacked. It will be going back to France first thing on Monday morning.” “Please be quiet,” said Sherlock Holmes. “Hide behind the boxes and keep very still. We shouldnt have long to wait.” In fact, we waited silently in the dark for over an hour, although it seemed a lot longer to me. Then suddenly, a strange light appeared under the stone floor. One of the stones began to move, letting more light in from below. Within moments, the stone was pushed on top of the next one, leaving a light-filled hole in its place. A hand appeared out of the hole, then another hand. A few seconds later, Vincent Spaulding jumped out of the hole onto the basement floor. Then he turned and leaned over the hole. “OK, Archie, its all clear up here. Give me the hammer and the bags and then climb up yourself,” he s
