The only way to travel is on foot

The past ages of man have all been carefully labeled(標(biāo)記)by anthropologists(人類學(xué)家). Descriptions like ‘Palaeolithic(舊石器時(shí)代) Man’, ‘Neolithic Man’, etc., neatly(干凈地;整潔地) sum up whole periods. When the time comes for anthropologists to turn their attention to the twentieth century, they will surely choose the label ‘Legless Man’. Histories of the time will go something like this: ‘in the twentieth century, people forgot how to use their legs. Men and women moved about in cars, buses and trains from a very early age. There were lifts and escalators(自動(dòng)電梯,自動(dòng)扶梯)in all large buildings to prevent people from walking. This situation was forced upon earth dwellers(居民) of that time because of miles each day. But the surprising thing is that they didn’t use their legs even when they went on holiday. They built cable railways, ski-lifts and roads to the top of every huge mountain. All the beauty spots on earth were marred (糟蹋)by the presence of large car parks. ’

The future history books might also record that we were deprived(剝奪) of the use of our eyes. In our hurry to get from one place to another, we failed to see anything on the way. Air travel gives you a bird’s-eye view of the world – or even less if the wing of the aircraft happens to get in your way. When you travel by car or train a blurred image of the countryside constantly smears the windows. Car drivers, in particular, are forever obsessed with the urge to go on and on: they never want to stop.

Is it the lure of the great motorways, or what? And as for sea travel, it hardly deserves mention. It is perfectly summed up in the words of the old song: ‘I joined the navy to see the world, and what did I see? I saw the sea.’ The typical twentieth-century traveler is the man who always says ‘I’ve been there. ’ You mention the remotest, most evocative place-names in the world like El Dorado, Kabul, Irkutsk and someone is bound to say ‘I’ve been there’ – meaning, ‘I drove through it at 100 miles an hour on the way to somewhere else. ’

When you travel at high speeds, the present means nothing: you live mainly in the future because you spend most of your time looking forward to arriving at some other place. But actual arrival, when it is achieved, is meaningless. You want to move on again. By traveling like this, you suspend all experience; the present ceases to be a reality: you might just as well be dead. The traveler on foot, on the other hand, lives constantly in the present. For him traveling and arriving are one and the same thing: he arrives somewhere with every step he makes. He experiences the present moment with his eyes, his ears and the whole of his body. At the end of his journey he feels a delicious physical weariness. He knows that sound. Satisfying sleep will be his: the just reward of all true travellers.

1. Anthropologists label nowadays’ men ‘Legless’ because

       A . people forget how to use his legs.            B  people prefer cars, buses and trains.

       C  lifts and escalators prevent people from walking. D  there are a lot of transportation devices.

2. Travelling at high speed means

       A people’s focus on the future.   B a pleasure.

C satisfying drivers’ great thrill.  D a necessity y of life.

3. Why does the author say ‘we are deprived of the use of our eyes’ ?

       A  People won’t use their eyes.     B In traveling at high speed, eyes become useless.

       C  People can’t see anything on his way of travel.   D  People want to sleep during travelling.

4. What is the purpose of the author in writing this passage?

       A Legs become weaker.   B Modern means of transportation make the world a small place.

       C There is no need to use eyes.    D The best way to travel is on foot.

5. What does ‘a(chǎn) bird’s-eye view’ mean?

       A  See view with bird’s eyes.    B  A bird looks at a beautiful view.

C It is a general view from a high position looking down.   D  A scenic place.

                                            The Cost of Higher Education
     Individuals(個(gè)人)should pay for their higher education.
    A university education is of huge and direct benefit to the individual.Graduates earn more than
nongraduates.Meanwhile, social mobility is ever more dependent on having a degree.However, only
some people have it.So the individual, not the taxpayers, should pay for it.There are pressing calls on
the resources(資源)of the government.Using taxpayers' money to help a small number of people to
earn high incomes in the future is not one of them.
    Full government funding(資助)is not very good for universities.Adam Smith worked in a Scottish
university whose teachers lived off student fees.He knew and looked down upon 18thcentury Oxford,
where the academics lived comfortably off the income received from the government.Guaranteed salaries, Smith argued, were the enemy of hard work;and when the academics were lazy and incompetent, the
students were similarly lazy.
    If students have to pay for their education, they not only work harder, but also demand more from their
teachers.And their teachers have to keep them satisfied.If that means taking teaching seriously, and giving
less time to their own research interests, that is surely something to celebrate.
    Many people believe that higher education should be free because it is good for the economy(經(jīng)濟(jì)).
Man y graduates clearly do contribute to national wealth, but so do all the businesses that invest(投資)
and create jobs.If you believe that the government should pay for higher education because graduates are
economically productive, you should also believe that the government should pay part of business costs.
Anyone promising to create jobs should receive a gift of capital from the government to invest.
     Therefore, it is the individual, not the government, who should pay for their university education.

1. The underlined word"them"in Paragraph 2 refers to ________.

A. taxpayers      
B. pressing calls
C. college graduates  
D. government resources

2. The author thinks that with full government funding ________.

A. teaching are less satisfied
B. students are more demanding
C. students will become more competent
D. teachers will spend less time on teaching

3. The author mentions businesses in Paragraph 5 in order to ________.

A. argue against free university education
B. call on them to finance students' studies
C. encourage graduates to go into business
D. show their contribution to higher education
