Learning for Its Own Sake For me, scientific knowledge is divided into mathematical scienc

Learning for Its Own Sake

For me, scientific knowledge is divided into mathematical sciences, natural sciences or sciences dealing with the natural world (physical and biological sciences), and sciences dealing with mankind (psychology, sociology, all the sciences of cultural achievements, every kind of historical knowledge). Apart from these sciences is philosophy, about which we will take shortly. In the first place, all this is pure or theoretical knowledge, sought only for the purpose of understanding, in order to fulfill the need to understand that is intrinsic and consubstantial to man. What distinguishes man from animal is that he knows and needs to know. If man did not know that the world existed, and that the world was of a certain kind, that he was in the world and that he himself was of a certain kind, he wouldn' t be a man. The technical aspects of applications of knowledge are equally necessary for man and are of the greatest importance, because they also contribute to defining him as man and permit him to pursue a life increasingly more truly human.

But even while enjoying the results of technical and the results of technical progress, he must defend the primacy and autonomy of pure knowledge. Knowledge sought directly for its practical applications will have immediate and foreseeable success, but not the kind of important result whose revolutionary scope is in large part unforeseen, except by the imagination of the Utopians. Let me recall a well - known example. If the Greek mathematicians had not applied themselves to the investigation of conic sections, zealously and without the least suspicion that it might someday be useful, it would not have been possible centuries later to navigate far from shore. The first men to study the nature of electricity could not imagine that their experiments, carried on because of mere intellectual curiosity, would eventually lead to modem electrical technology, without which we can scarcely conceive of contemporary life. Pure knowledge is valuable for its own sake, because the human spirit cannot resign itself to ignorance. But, in addition, it is the foundation for practical results that would not have been reached if this knowledge had not been sought disinterestedly.

The author points out that the Greeks who studied conic sections______

A．invented modern mathematical applications

B．were interested in navigation

C．were unaware of the value of their studies

D．worked with electricity

Pure or Theoretical Knowledge

For me, scientific knowledge is divided into mathematical sciences, natural sciences or sciences dealing with the natural world (physical and biological sciences), and sciences dealing with mankind (psychology, sociology, all the sciences of cultural achievements, every kind of historical knowledge). Apart from these sciences is philosophy, about which we will talk later.

第9题

After decades of distrust, China and America are finally seeking friendship. But after tea

ching in Xiamen Universitys MBA center for over five years, Ive come to realize that even if political and economic barriers are overcome, a major hurdle remains—culture! On occasion I have felt that some Chinese were rude or inconsiderate. Unfortunately, some Chinese have thought even worse of me. But most of the discord arises not from intent but from ignorance of cultural differences. Americas individualist culture springs from a 2 000 year tradition of Roman and Greek arts, philosophy and government, as well as the moral and legal traditions of Christianity. By contrast, Chinas culture, including its arts, philosophy, and government is rooted in the Confucian ethic, Taoism, Buddhism, and more recently, Chinese Socialism. Two weeks after I arrived in China, I told a cashier "Thank you. " She replied, "Dont use thanks. " Taken aback, I asked "Why shouldnt I use thanks？" She looked at me as if I were from another planet and I beat a hasty retreat. I reasoned that since China is socialist, maybe polite phrases denote feudalist class distinctions and are best avoided! But a leopard cant change its spots and an American cant easily stop saying "thank you" for everything. A week later a shop assistant told me "Dont use thanks. " I asked "Why not？" and she replied, "Dont be polite. " I thought, "Well, this is too much! We cant use any polite speech at all？" To my dismay, I eventually learned that "Dont use thanks" had the exact same meaning and usage as the English "Dont mention it". I had translated words instead of intent. My mistake was merely an embarrassment, but similar blunders(错误)by business and political leaders have destroyed potential business negotiations or diplomatic relationships. Questions:

Whats the best title of this passage？

A．Cultural Barriers to Sino-U. S. Friendship.

B．Possible Business Cooperation between China and America.

C．Political and Economic Hurdle between U. S. and China.

D．Different Languages Used by Chinese and Americans.
