14、命运的知识分子要求改革,不仅工业和军事方面要改,政治体制也得改。康有为、梁启超和谭嗣同便是维新派的代表人物。 康有为会同一千三百多名举人联名上书光绪皇帝,要求维新变法。康有为主张以君主立宪制代替封建专制。康有为的学生梁启超协助撰写文章,宣传变法思想。相比之下,谭嗣同更为激进,撰写了仁学一书批驳传统思想。 维新派不断发表演说,出版论著,在报上撰文,阐明变法的必要性。中国的危急形势在一定程度上帮助了他们,当时的形势表明中国除了变法之外别无出路。但是,顽固派,在国内,尤其是在统治阶级中的势力仍然十分强大。他们极力反对变法,认为要变的是人,不是法,因为所有的错误都来自于人们的错误想法。 1898 年,
15、康有为再次上书光绪皇帝。他谏言只有维新变法才能救国,不变法国家就要灭亡。这一次,光绪皇帝被说动了,赞同了康有为的观点和建议。1898 年 6月,他让康有为和其他一些变法派在政府中担任要职,并授权他们进行改革。 他们采取的主要是一些经济和教育改良措施,诸如鼓励工商业,设立学校,改革科举制度,裁撤一些不必要的政府机构。但是真正执掌大权的是以慈禧太后为首的顽固派,他们非常憎恨这些举措,强烈反对。在军队的协助下,慈禧于 9月发动政变。将光绪皇帝软禁,并且杀害了谭嗣同等六位维新志士。康有为和梁启超侥幸逃脱。百日维新就这样宣告结束。 变法的失败给进步人士这样一个教训:要在清廷的统治下改革政治体制是不可能的

33、ld all be subjugated and compelled to do anything one wishes.“(分数:60.00)_正确答案:()解析:1451 年,克里斯托夫哥伦布出生在一个意大利织工家庭。他从小就对航海着迷,自学了地理学、航海术和拉丁语,以此弥补没受过正规教育的缺憾。到了 15世纪 80年代,哥伦布已经是一位经验丰富的水手了,他身材高大,红头发,瘦长脸,面色红润,圆眼睛,高鼻梁。图片上美轮美奂的亚洲风光让哥伦布为之神往,于是他策划向西航行到印度群岛 (包括印度、中国、东印度群岛或日本)。葡萄牙、英格兰和法国朝廷对此没有兴趣,于是哥伦布便转向西班牙求助,得到了国
34、王斐迪南德和王后伊莎贝拉的支持。他自己还筹措了这次航海的很大一部分资金。传说王后抵押了自己王冠上的珠宝来资助他,纯属无稽之谈,这就和说哥伦布航海是为了证明地球是圆的一样荒谬。 哥伦布自己租了一条 75英尺长的船,船名叫“圣玛利亚”号,西班牙城市帕洛斯出了两条稍小的三桅帆船“平塔”号和“尼娜”号。这支 75人的队伍就从帕洛斯起航了,朝着哥伦布心目中的亚洲向西进发。起初贸易风强劲,船队顺风顺水,十分顺利。但接着风就不那么帮忙了,日子一天天过去,水手们开始抱怨船长的计划异想天开。为了鼓舞士气,哥伦布向大家描绘了一番金银财宝任取任拿的灿烂前景。尽管如此,大家仍心存疑虑。最后,他承诺,如果三天后还见不到
35、陆地,就打道回府。 1492 年 10月 12日一大早,在海上整整航行了 33天之后,“圣玛利亚”号上的嘹望员突然放声大喊:“啊!陆地!”那是巴哈马群岛的一座岛屿,哥伦布把它命名为圣萨尔瓦多 (意为“神圣的救世主”)。哥伦布自己估算,他差不多到了东印度群岛,所以管那儿的人叫印第安人。在他的描述中,印第安人浑身赤裸,“身体壮实,身材健美,长相标致”。阿拉瓦克印第安人划着挖空树干做成的独木舟,出来迎接,给这群陌生人献礼。他们慷慨热情,性情温顺,哥伦布在航海日记中写道,“他们倾其所有,邀君共享,一腔热忱,绝无保留。”他还写道,“只需 50人便足以降伏他们,任我差遣。”四、B/B(总题数:1,分数:4
