I know science's limitations, but with my worship of science I always let the scientists do the groundwork, having complete confidence in them. I let them discover the physical universe for me-the physical universe that I de-sire so much to know. Then, after getting as much as possible of the scientist's knowledge, I remember that human beings are greater than the analytical scientist that the latter cannot tell us everything, not tell us about the most important things, the things that make for happiness.
It is instead intuitive thinking that alone can help us attain the truth and wisdom of living. Truly intuitive thinking is always the type of thinking that is sort of warm, emotional, and half-humorous, mixed in part with idealism and in part with delightful nonsense. Great wisdom consists in not demanding too much of human nature, and yet not altogether spoiling it by indulgence. One must try to do one's best and at the same time, one must, when rewarded by partial success or confronted with partial failure, say to oneself, “I have done my best. ” This is about all the philosophy of living that one needs.
After science has done its groundwork, religion, art, literature, and philosophy must take their rightful place in human life. These things do not seem to tie together with science in the modem world; the specialist has taken over the human being. For science can never replace art, religion, literature and philosophy. Next to knowledge, we must retain, and never lose, a taste for life, a respect for life, a sense of wonder at life, and a proper and reasonable attitude toward life. The taste for life must be simple, the respect for life must be truly profound, the sense of wonder must be fully alive, and the attitude toward life must be harmonious and reasonable .
1．According to this passage, which of the following is one of science's limitations?
[ ]
A．Science cannot make us live happily.
B．Science cannot discover knowledge.
C．Science cannot lead us to success.
D．Science cannot give us confidence.
2．According to the author, intuitive thinking is something that________.
[ ]
A．scientists use to discover knowledge.
B．people can do, but animals cannot.
C．students can learn in school.
D．we need to lead a better life.
3．The author recommends that we should
[ ]
A．be satisfied with moderate achievement.
B．avoid failure at all costs.
C．ignore human nature .
D．drive ourselves to be the best.
4．The author thinks that in the modern world1________.
[ ]
A．a true taste for life depends upon science.
B．science is closely related to the humanities.
C．harmony can be found among scientists.
D．experts have controlled our way of life.
5．What statement best reflects the author's opinion as stated in this passage?
[ ]
A．Science teaches us more about life than art, religion, literature and philosophy.
B．Art, religion, literature and philosophy are no less important than science .
C．Science should replace religion as a new faith for people today.
D．Knowledge of the physical universe gives us wisdom about life.

Time talks. It speaks more plainly (明白地) than words. Time communicates(交流)in many ways.
Consider the different parts of the day, for example. The time of the day when something is done can give a special meaning to the event. Factory managers in the United States fully realize the importance of an announcement made during the middle of the morning or afternoon that takes everyone away from his work.
In the United States . it is not customary(通常的，习惯的) to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving (刮脸) or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very urgent (紧急的) and requires immediate attention. It is the same with telephone calls made after 11:00 p. m. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he probably thinks it is a matter of life or death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.
The meanings of time differ in different parts of the world. Thus, misunderstanding arises (出现) between people from cultures (文化) that treat time differently . In the United States, people tend (趋向于) to think of time as something fixed in nature, something from which one can not escape. As a rule, .Americans think of time as a road into the future, along which one progresses. The road has many sections (段) , which are to be kept separate… “one thing at a time” . Thus, an American may feel angry when he has made an appointment (约会) with someone and then finds a lot of other things happening at the same time.
Americans look ahead and are concerned(与……有关系) almost entirely with the future. The American idea of the future is limited, however. It is the foreseeable future and not the future of involving (牵连) many centuries. Since time has much different meanings in different cultures, communication is often difficult. We will understand each other a little better if we can keep this fact in mind.
(1) According to the passage, an announcement made during the day in a factory must be very important because ____.
[ ]
A．it interrupts the work of all employees
B．it is made by the manager
C．it makes everyone lose his job
D．it communicates in many ways
(2) In the United States, a phone call made after 11:00 p. m. is considered ________ in the view of the writer.
[ ]
A．as important as one made in the morning
B．impolite since it disturbs the receiver's sleep
C．to be a threat (恐吓) to the receiver's life
D．even more urgent than one made early in the morning.
(3) An .American may feel angry if ________.
[ ]
A．he is to deal with many things at one appointed time
B．people from different cultures misunderstand him
C．he cannot escape from something fixed in nature
D．others do not keep things separate
(4) The expression “the foreseeable future” could be most suitably replaced by ________.
[ ]
A．the future that will not be far away
B．the future that one looks forward to
C．the future toward which one makes progress
D．the future which involves centuries
(5) The writer concludes that people of different countries will understand each other better if ________ .
[ ]
A．they know how to communicate with each other
B．they are concerned with the future
C．they learn the way time communicates
D．they keep in mind that different cultures treat time differently
