Unit 8 Knowledge and WisdomKey to the ExercisesText comprehensionI.Decide which of the following best states the author's argument.CII.Judge, according to the text, whether the following statements are true or false.1. F (Refer to Paragraph2. The study of the composition of atoms, or the development of the atom bomb, for example, has placed in the hands of powerful lunatics the means to destroy the human race.)2.T (Refer to Paragraph 2. This has become more difficult than it used to be owing to the extent and complexity of the specialized knowledge required of various kinds of technicians.)3.T (Refer to Paragraph 3. Although he had a comprehensive knowledge of history, he was still partial as the chief lesson of history which he sought to inculcate was that from the year 400AD down to his own time Germany had been the most important nation and the standard-bearer of progress in the world.)4. F (Refer to Paragraph 4. It is true that both Mr. A and Mr. B possess some vices of their respective kinds, but the fact does not prove that they are wise or unwise.)5. F (Refer to paragraph 5. The mistake lies in the extremity of the statement. According to Russell, man cannot free himself entirely from the physical and emotional need, so one can only grow in wisdom, which itself is a matter of degree.)III.Answer the following questions.1.Refer to Paragraph2. A sense of proportion could be seen as the ability to take into full consideration all important factors in an issue and attach due weight to each factor. 2. Refer to Paragraphs 1 and 2. In the first place, they are examples of the idea raised at the very beginning of the text: "although our age far surpasses all previous ages in knowledge, there has been no correlative increase in wisdom." The problem, according to the essay, is partly due to the fact that it is now more difficult to acquire a sense of proportion, or the ability to assign appropriate weights to various factors, thus achieving balance. In consequence, breakthroughs in science are likely to bring about harms if humankind fails to see the end of science and consider everything in a comprehensive manner.3. Refer to Paragraphs 1 to4. According to Russell, the vices of the lack of wisdom are obvious and palpable, ranging from disturbance to public life, most notably the upset of world peace, to unpleasant incidents in private life. Meanwhile, there seems to be animbalance in the growth of knowledge and wisdom, which is very likely to make things even worse. So, wisdom is necessary for both personal and cultural developments.4. Refer to Paragraph5. According to Russell, the essence of wisdom is impartiality, or emancipation from egoistic or temporal concerns. It is naturally difficult for man to attain impartiality, as man is naturally bound up by his own physical states from his birth. As he grows up, however, his horizon widens, his concerns get beyond the limits of time and space, and his feelings become more impersonal, hence the growth of impartiality and wisdom.5. Apart from the fact that it is one of the ingredients of wisdom, impartiality is also the basis of rationality, for irrationality is normally based on partiality.IV.Explain in your own words the following sentences.1.It would be unwise to pursue a goal that is bound to fail, although it might be noble to do so.2.I think the essence of wisdom is to get one's horizon free from the confinement of time and space.Structural analysis of the textParagraph 2: Of these I should put first a sense of proportion: the capacity to take account of all the important factors in a problem and to attach to each its due weight. Paragraph 3: There must be, also, a certain awareness of the ends of human life. Paragraph 4: It is needed in the choice of ends to be pursued and in emancipation from personal prejudice.Paragraph 5: I think the essence of wisdom is emancipation, as far as possible, from the tyranny of the here and now.Four factors that constitute wisdom: comprehensiveness mixed with a sense of proportion; a full awareness of the goals of human life; avoidance of blindness and prejudice in private life; impartiality.Rhetorical features of the textThe capacity to take account of all the important factors in a problem and to attach to each its due weight. (Paragraph 2)This has the entirely unintended result of making the food supply inadequate and lowering the standard of life in the most populous parts of the world. (Paragraph 2) Perhaps one could stretch the comprehensiveness that constitutes wisdom to include not only intellect but also feeling. (Paragraph 3)It is not only in public ways, but in private life equally, that wisdom is needed. (Paragraph 4)Vocabulary exercisesI. Explain the underlined part in each sentence in your own words.1.consider (when judging a situation)/take into consideration, give proper value to each/attach adequate importance to each2.

Unit 8Unit 8 Focus on Global WarmingSection One Pre-reading ActivitiesCultural information1. Global warmingGlobal warming is the increase in the average temperature of Earth‘s near-surface air and oceans since the mid-20th century and its projected continuation. Most of the observed temperature increase since the middle of the 20th century was caused by increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases, which results from human activity such as fossil fuel burning and deforestation.An increase in global temperature will cause sea levels to rise and will change the amountand pattern of precipitation, probably including expansion of subtropical deserts. Warming is expected to be strongest in the Arctic and would be associated with continuing retreat of glaciers, permafrost and sea ice. Other likely effects include changes in the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, species extinctions, and changes in agricultural yields.Section Two Global ReadingI Text analysis1.From which perspectives does the text address the issue of global warming?The text addresses the issue from three perspectives —the general public concern, its causes and consequences, and practical actions to tackle the problem.2.What's the author's purpose of writing?To raise people's consciousness of the potential dangers of global warming, and to suggestsome actions to combat it.II Structural analysis2. Figure out the sub-ideas in the second part.1) the causes of the rising concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere (Paragraphs 3 and 4)2) the effect of such concentration on climate change (Paragraphs 5 and 6)3) the potential threat of global warming to human health and survival (Paragraph 7)Section Three Detailed Reading1Unit 8Text IFocus on Global WarmingJohn WeierTwenty-five years ago if you made a trip to the local library and perused the periodical 1few a up with only have on global warming, you'd probably come section for articles geopolitical esoteric a blurb in some abstracts from hardcore science journals or maybe, the subject has become as attests magazine.

Unit 8 Knowledge and wisdom练习答案综合教程三

Unit 8 Knowledge and wisdom练习答案综合教程三Unit 8 Knowledge and Wisdom 练习答案(综合教程三)In the fast-paced and ever-changing world we live in, the pursuit of knowledge and wisdom holds great importance. Knowledge refers to the accumulation of information and facts, while wisdom represents the ability to apply that knowledge in a thoughtful and insightful manner. Both knowledge and wisdom are essential in our personal and professional lives, as they help us make informed decisions, find meaning in our experiences, and navigate through the complexities of life.Knowledge is the foundation upon which wisdom is built. It is acquired through various sources such as education, books, the internet, and personal experiences. Knowledge provides us with a broad understanding of different subjects and enables us to comprehend the world around us. For example, through formal education, we gain knowledge in subjects like mathematics, science, history, and literature. This knowledge equips us with the necessary tools to analyze and interpret information.However, knowledge alone is not enough. Wisdom is the ability to assess and evaluate knowledge in a critical manner. Wisdom enables us to discern between what is important and what is trivial, and to apply our knowledge in practical and meaningful ways. Wisdom comes from experience, reflection, and a deep understanding of oneself and others. It involves the cultivation of virtues such as empathy, compassion, and humility.In order to cultivate wisdom, we need to constantly challenge our assumptions, ask questions, and seek different perspectives. Wisdom requires us to be open-minded and receptive to new ideas. It encourages us to learn from our mistakes and to embrace failure as an opportunity for growth. Wisdom also involves recognizing the limitations of our knowledge and being comfortable with uncertainty. It requires us to navigate the complexities of life with humility and to approach challenges with a sense of curiosity and wonder.The importance of knowledge and wisdom extends beyond the personal realm. In the workplace, knowledge is often a prerequisite for success. Employers value individuals who possess a wide range of knowledge and have the ability to apply that knowledge to solve problems. In addition, wisdom is highly valued in leadership positions. Wise leaders are able to make well-informed decisions, inspire others, and create a positive and inclusive work environment.Furthermore, knowledge and wisdom are essential for societal progress. In a world that is increasingly interconnected, the ability to make informed decisions is crucial. Knowledge allows us to understand and address pressing global issues such as climate change, poverty, and inequality. Wisdom, on the other hand, helps us balance competing interests, consider the long-term consequences of our actions, and make ethical choices.In conclusion, knowledge and wisdom are integral to our personal growth, professional success, and societal progress. Knowledge provides us with the necessary information and facts, while wisdom enables us to apply that knowledge in a thoughtful and insightful manner. As we continue ourjourney of acquiring knowledge and cultivating wisdom, let us strive to be curious, open-minded, and compassionate, so that we may make a positive impact in our own lives and the lives of others.。
