In the 1980s

19、, the Italian journalist and author Tiziano Terzani, after many years of reporting across Asia, holed himself up in a cabin in Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan. “ For a month I had no one to talk to except my dog Baoli,“ he wrote in his book A Fortune Teller Told Me. Terzani passed the time with books, obs

20、erving nature, “ listening to the winds in the trees, watching butterflies, enjoying silence“. For the first time in a long while he felt free from the unending anxieties of daily life: “At last I had time to have time. “ Terzanis embrace of isolation was relatively unusual: humans have long conside

21、red solitude an inconvenience, something to avoid, a punishment, a realm of loners. Science has often associated it with negative outcomes. Freud, who linked solitude with anxiety, noted that, “In children the first fears relating to situations are those of darkness and solitude. “ John Cacioppo, a

22、modem social neuro-scientist who has extensively studied lonelinesswhat he calls “ chronic perceived isolation“ contends that, beyond damaging our thinking powers, isolation can even harm our physical health. But increasingly scientists are approaching solitude as something that, when pursued by cho

23、ice, can prove a therapy. This is especially true in times of personal disorder, when the instinct is often for people to reach outside of themselves for support. “ When people are experiencing crisis, its not always just about you: Its about how you are in society,“ explains Jack Fong, a sociologis

24、t at California State Polytechnic University who has studied solitude. In other words, when people remove themselves from the social context of their lives, they are better able to see how theyre shaped by that context. Thomas Merton, a monk and writer who spent years alone, held a similar notion. “

25、We cannot see things in perspective until we cease to hug them to our breast,“ he writes in Thoughts in Solitude. “People can go for a walk or listen to music and feel that they are deeply in touch with themselves. “（分数：10.00）(1).Tiziano Terzani spent a month alone to_.（分数：2.00）A.embrace isolationB.

29、 animals who were, for a long time, considered second-class citizens. As Annie Potts of Canterbury University has noted, chickens distinguish among one hundred chicken faces and recognize familiar individuals even after months of separations. When given problems to solve, they reason: hens trained t

30、o pick colored buttons sometimes choose to give up an immediate(lesser)food reward for a slightly later(and better)one. Healthy hens may aid friends, and mourn when those friends die. Pigs respond meaningfully to human symbols. When a research team led by Candace Croney at Penn State University carr

31、ied wooden blocks marked with X and O symbols around pigs, only the O carriers offered food to the animals. The pigs soon ignores the X carriers in favor of the Os. Then the team switched from real-life objects to a T-shirts printed with X or O symbols. Still, the pigs ventured only toward the O-shi

32、rted people: they had transferred their knowledge to a two-dimensional format, a not-inconsiderable feat of reasoning. Fairly soon, I came to see that along with our closest living relatives, cetaceans(鲸目动物)too are masters of cultural learning, and elephants express profound joy and mourning with th

33、eir social companions. Long-term studies in the wild on these mammals helped to fuel a perspective shift in our society: the public no longer so easily accepts monkeys made to undergo painful procedures in laboratories, elephants forced to perform in circuses, and dolphins kept in small tanks at the

34、me parks. Over time, though, as I began to broaden out even further and explore the inner lives of fish, chicken, pigs, goats, and cows, I started to wonder: Will the new science of “food animals“ bring an ethical revolution in terms of who we eat? In other words, will the breadth of our ethic start

35、 to catch up with the breadth of our science? Animals activists are already there, of course, committed to not eating these animals. But what about the rest of us? Can paying attention to the thinking and feeling of these animals lead us to make change in who we eat?（分数：10.00）(1).According to Annie

39、ood Animals; Past, Present and Future.Almost eight years ago, the American educator Abraham Flexner published an article entitled The Usefulness of Useless Knowledge. In it, he argued that the most powerful intellectual and technological breakthroughs usually emerged from research that initially app

40、eared “useless“ , without much relevance to real life. As a result, it was vital, Flexner said, that these “useless“ efforts should be supported, even if they did not produce an immediate payback, because otherwise the next wave of innovation simply would not occur. “ Curiosity, which may or may not

41、 produce something useful, is probably the outstanding characteristic of modern thinking,“ he declared. In 1929, Flexner persuaded a wealthy American family, the Bambergers, to use some of their donations to fund the Institute for Advanced Study(IAS)at Princeton to support exactly this kind of “undi

42、rected“ research. And it paid off: brilliant Jewish scientists fleeing from Nazi Germany, such as Albert Einstein, gathered at the IAS to explore undirected ideas. And while some of these, such as Einsteins own work developing his early theory of relativity, did not initially seem valuable, many eve

43、ntually produced powerful applications(though after many decades). “Without Einsteins theory, our GPS tracking devices would be inaccurate by about seven miles,“ writes Robbert Dijkgraaf, the current director of the IAS, in the foreword to a newly released reprint of Flexners article. Concepts such

44、as quantum mechanics(量子力学)or superconductivity also seemed fairly useless at firstbut yielded huge dividends at a later date. The reason why the IAS is re-releasing Flexners article now is that scientists such as Dijkgraaf fear this core principle is increasing under threat. The Trump administration

45、 has released a projected budget that threatens to reduce funding for the arts, science and educational groups. Many Republicans believe that research is better financed by business or philanthropists(慈善家)than by government. But one striking fact about the past century is how much American innovatio

46、n originated in federal projects; Silicon Valley would never have boomed were it not for the fact that state funding enabled the development of the World Wide Web, for example.（分数：10.00）(1).What may be the best title for the passage?（分数：2.00）A.The value of Creative IdeasB.The Importance of Basic Res
