34、s. for each of them there are four choices marked a, b, c and d. you must decide one the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the answer sheet with a single line through the center.passage one americans today dont place a very high value on intellect. our heroes are athletes, entertainer

35、s, and entrepreneurs, not scholars. even our schools are where we send our children to get a practical education not to pursue knowledge for the sake of knowledge. symptoms of pervasive anti-intellectualism in our schools arent difficult to find. “schools have always been in a society where practica

36、l is more important than intellectual,” says education writer diane ravitch. “schools could be a counterbalance.” ravitchs latest book, left back: a century of failed school reforms, traces the roots of anti-intellectualism in our schools, concluding they are anything but a counterbalance to the ame

37、rican distaste for intellectual pursuits. but they could and should be. encouraging kids to reject the life of the mind leaves them vulnerable to exploitation and control. without the ability to think critically, to defend their ideas and understand the ideas of others, they cannot fully participate

38、 in our democracy. continuing along this path, says writer earl shorris, “we will become a second-rate country. we will have a less civil society.” “intellect is resented as a form of power or privilege,” writes historian and professor richard hofstadter in anti-intellectualism in american life, a p

39、ulitzer prize winning book on the roots of anti-intellectualism in us politics, religion, and education. from the beginning of our history, says hofstadter, our democratic and populist urges have driven us to reject anything that smells of elitism. practicality, common sense, and native intelligence

40、 have been considered more noble qualities than anything you could learn from a book. ralph waldo emerson and other transcendentalist philosophers thought schooling and rigorous book learning put unnatural restraints on children: “we are shut up in schools and college recitation rooms for 10 or 15 y

41、ears and come out at last with a bellyful of words and do not know a thing.” mark twains huckleberry finn exemplified american anti-intellectualism. its hero avoids being civilized going to school and learning to read so he can preserve his innate goodness. intellect, according to hofstadter, is dif

42、ferent from native intelligence, a quality we reluctantly admire. intellect is the critical, creative, and contemplative side of the mind. intelligence seeks to grasp, manipulate, re-order, and adjust, while intellect examines, ponders, wonders, theorizes, criticizes and imagines. school remains a p

43、lace where intellect is mistrusted. hofstadter says our countrys educational system is in the grips of people who “joyfully and militantly proclaim their hostility to intellect and their eagerness to identify with children who show the least intellectual promise.” 41. what do american parents expect

44、 their children to acquire in school? a. the habit of thinking independently. b. profound knowledge of the world. c. practical abilities for future career. d. the confidence in intellectual pursuits. 42. we can learn from the text that americans have a history of _. a. undervaluing intellect b. favo

46、tualism. c. a scholar in favor of intellect. d. an advocate of regular schooling. 45. what does the author think of intellect? a. it is second to intelligence. b. it evolves from common sense. c. it is to be pursued. d. it underlies power.passage two some houses are designed to be smart. others have

47、 smart designs. an example of the second type of house won an award of excellence from the american institute of architects. located on the shore of sullivans island off the coast of south carolina, the award-winning cube-shaped beach house was built to replace one smashed to pieces by hurricane hug

48、o 10 years ago. in september 1989, hugo struck south carolina, killing 18 people and damaging or destroying 36,000 homes in the state. before hugo, many new houses built along south carolinas shoreline were poorly constructed, and enforcement of building codes wasnt strict, according to architect ra

49、y huff, who created the cleverly-designed beach house. in hugos wake, all new shoreline houses are required to meet stricter, better-enforced codes. the new beach house on sullivans island should be able to withstand a category 3 hurricane with peak winds of 179 to 209 kilometers per hour. at first

50、sight, the house on sullivans island looks anything but hurricane-proof. its redwood shell makes it resemble a large party lantern at night, according to one observer. but looks can be deceiving. the houses wooden frame is reinforced with long steel rods to give it extra strength. to further protect

51、 the house from hurricane damage, huff raised it 2.7 meters off the ground on timber pilings - long, slender columns of wood anchored deep in the sand. pilings might appear insecure, but they are strong enough to support the weight of the house. they also elevate the house above storm surges. the pi

52、lings allow the surges to run under the house instead of running into it. these swells of water come ashore at tremendous speeds and cause most of the damage done to beach-front buildings, said huff. huff designed the timber pilings to be partially concealed by the houses ground-to-roof shell. the s

53、hell masks the pilings so that the house doesnt look like its standing with its pant legs pulled up, said huff. in the event of a storm surge, the shell should break apart and let the waves rush under the house, the architect explained. 46. after the tragedy caused by hurricane hugo, new houses buil

54、t along south carolinas shore line are required_. a. to be easily reinforced b. to look smarter in design c. to meet stricter building standards d. to be designed in the shape of cubes 47. the award-winning beach house is quite strong because_. a. it is strengthened by steel rods b. it is made of re

55、dwood c. it is in the shape of a shell d. it is built with timber and concrete 48. huff raised the house 2.7 meters off the ground on timber pilings in order to _. a. withstand peak winds of about 200 km/hr b. anchor stronger pilings deep in the sand c. break huge sea waves into smaller ones d. prevent water from rushing into the house 49. the main function of the shell is _. a. to strengthen the pilings of the house b. to give the house a better appearance c. to protect the wooden frame of
