Two followers of Clark Hull, Howard and Tracey Kendler, U U 1 /U /Ua test for children that w
13、as explicitly based on Clark Hulls principles. The children were given the U U 2 /U /Uof learning to operate a machine so as to get a toy. In order to succeed they had to go through a two-stage U U 3 /U /U. The children were trained on each stage U U 4 /U /U. The stages consisted merely of pressing

U U 7 /U /Uthey did not for the most part integrate, to use the Kendlers terminology. They did not press the button to get the marble and then U U 8 /U /Uwithout further help to

26、：10.00)Scholastic thinkers held a wide variety of doctrines in both philosophy and theology, the study of religion. What gives unity to the whole Scholastic movement, the academic practice in Europe from the 9th to the 17th centuries, are the common aims, attitudes, and methods generally accepted by
27、 all its members. The chief concern of the Scholastics was not to discover new facts but to integrate the knowledge already acquired separately by Greek reasoning and Christian revelation. This concern is one of the most characteristic differences between Scholasticism and modern thought since the R
28、enaissance.The basic aim of the Scholastics determined certain common attitudes, the most important of which was their conviction of the fundamental harmony between reason and revelation. The Scholastics maintained that because the same God was the source of both types of knowledge and truth was one
29、 of his chief attributes, he could not contradict himself in these two ways of speaking. Any apparent opposition between revelation and reason could be traced either to an incorrect use of reason or to an inaccurate interpretation of the words of revelation. Because the Scholastics believed that rev
30、elation was the direct teaching of God, it possessed for them a higher degree of truth and certainty than did natural reason. In apparent conflicts between religious faith and philosophic reasoning, faith was thus always the supreme arbiter; the theologians decision overruled that of the philosopher
31、. After the early 13th century, Scholastic thought emphasized more the independence of philosophy within its own domain. Nonetheless, throughout the Scholastic period, philosophy was called the servant of theology, not only because the truth of philosophy was subordinated to that of theology, but al
32、so because the theologian used philosophy to understand and explain revelation.This attitude of Scholasticism stands in sharp contrast to the so-called double-truth theory of the Spanish-Arab philosopher and physician Averroes. His theory assumed that truth was accessible to both philosophy and Isla
33、mic theology but that only philosophy could attain it perfectly. The so-called truths of theology served, hence, as imperfect imaginative expressions for the common people of the authentic truth accessible only to philosophy. Averroes maintained that philosophic truth could even contradict, at least
34、 verbally, the teachings of Islamic theology.As a result of their belief in the harmony between faith and reason, the Scholastics attempted to determine the precise scope and competence of each of these faculties. Many early Scholastics, such as the Italian ecclesiastic and philosopher St. Anselm, d
35、id not clearly distinguish the two and were overconfident that reason could prove certain doctrines of revelation. Later, at the height of the mature period of Scholasticism, the Italian theologian and philosopher St. Thomas Aquinas worked out a balance between reason and revelation.（分数：10.00）(1).Wi

Outstanding features of the mature period of Scholasticism.（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.五、BPassage Two/B(总题数：1，分数：10.00)The key position and role of women in the process of development is increasingly being recognized. Al
41、though the three great World Conferences of Women were more concerned with recognizing and compiling approaches to emancipation we can currently confirm a general sharpening of awareness. It has become clear that the Third World cultures, in earlier times strongly matriarchal, have been weakened in
42、this respect by the methods of colonial education which are almost exclusively directed towards the male. Of the many criticisms of this situation let one voice be heard: “Development education groups and programs are very much male dominated and lack womans perspective“. So, too, the hopes placed i
43、n vocational training-“vocationalization-as an aid to equality have been disappointed since this in its turn was to large extent focused on the male.In these circumstances we should not be surprised that until now women have participated least in the educational processes which have been introduced.
44、 Only 20% attend primary school and the percentage of those who leave early is highest among girls. Because of the lack of basic training only around 10% take part in Adult Education programs. Hence it is vitally important to secure a turning point by increasing the awareness of the need for educati
45、on.The International Conference at Jomtien in 1990 provided the solution to this: “A more educated mother raises a healthier family. She has fewer and better educated children. She is more productive at home and in the workplace and is better able to get further education.“ Many problems in school a
46、re consequences of incorrect or improperly balanced nutrition combined with .inadequate hygiene. Together these factors can lead to failure to keep pace in school.Hence even primary education for girls should be directed towards the basic needs and necessities and provide answers which are as simple
47、 as possible. In rural districts such answers will be different from those given in urban areas. The education of girls and women must to a large degree be an education for the life they will lead, tailored to a womans position. In saying this we are in fact demanding that the education of women, like all educational work in the Third World, should be an integrated pa
