For eight hundred years before the【 47】 _ (establish) of Valentines Day, the Romans had【 48】 pr a pagan(异教徒 ) celebration in mid-February honoring young mens ceremony of passage to the god Lupercus. Th

11、e celebration was characterized by lottery in【 49】 _young men would draw the names of【 50】 teen._ girls from a box. The girl given to each young man in this way would be his companion the rest of the year. In an effort to do away with such a【 51】 f_, Pope Gelasius ordered a slight change in the lott

Instead of the names of young women, the box would contain the names of saints. 【 52】 _the men and women were allowed to draw from the box, and the game was to【 53】 imi_the ways of the saint they drew during the rest of rite year. However, ninny young Roman men were not too pleased【 54】 _the co

They found an appropriate choice in Valentine, who, in AD 270 had been killed by Enter Claudius. Section A 25 Few words are more commonly used in our modern world than the word modern itsel

14、f. The modernity of manufactured articles, of institutions, of attitudes, of works of art is constantly brought to our attention. We ourselves may well be judged by whether we are modern or not; indeed, many people go to considerable lengths to make quite certain that they will be accepted as modern

15、modern in their dress, their behavior, their beliefs. And yet, we may ask, must earlier generations not have felt precisely the same? Surely men throughout history must have recognized themselves as modern. Surely innovators like Julius Caesar, Peter the Great or Oliver Cromwell saw themselves as br

16、eaking with the past, as establishing a new order. Must they not also have shared our awareness of the significance of what is modern? What is modern is distinct from what belongs to the past and men in earlier times must have experienced this sense of distinctiveness. People cannot escape, and neve

17、r have been able to escape, an awareness of change. Reflection will tell us that our awareness of change, our sense of distinctiveness, is very different from that of our predecessors. Change for us is more, much more, than the change brought about by the passing of time, by important events or by t

18、he actions of outstanding individuals or groups of people. We make use of change and are ourselves a part of a process of change. Change for us has become modernization and modernization implies both direction and consciousness. Change is something we seek, something we attempt to control and someth

19、ing that has no end. Our “modern”consciousness of change and this desire to direct change began with the Industrial Revolution. The term revolution is usually applied to a historical event that causes a major change in thought, life styles, and identity. We can normally speak of a time before the re

20、volution and a time after the revolution. But the Industrial Revolution, although it had a beginning, has never come to an end. It is a process not yet stopped. It is a process which affects more and more people in more and more ways. We may argue that it is a process directed by humans. The whole p

21、rocess is, as yet, beyond control of any particular individual or group. We can decide the direction of modernization to some extent but we cannot decide to halt it. This has led to a disturbing situation. What we boast of as modern or up to date today, will be old-fashioned or out of date tomorrow.

22、 The noisy insistence that something is modern often conceals fear of the knowledge that it will inevitably soon be superseded. Again, the very fact that modernization has one direction only and involves every member of society permits only two attitudes; acceptance or rejection. The desire to chang

23、e or modify the world we live in implies acceptance, since the world is a world of change. Rejection of modernization may, therefore, lead to a sense of the world as unreal and meaningless, and this, in turn, to a breakdown, either individual or social.
