25、neself into…position ? 設(shè)身處地，使自己處于……位置／地點。 寫作方法與文章大意 這是一篇由一般到具體，重要采用正反對比，推理的寫作方法的文章，邏輯性強，正反論證，句子結(jié)構(gòu)復(fù)雜冗長，分兩段給出內(nèi)容，第一段重點在：偉大的思想家的首要責(zé)任是奠定遵循自己智力所得出的結(jié)論。由此引起思想家和思想活躍的人民同時代環(huán)境的關(guān)系。只有思想后月的時期，才有偉大的思想家和活躍的人民，因為他們可以討論重大主題，而在思想禁錮時期，只能產(chǎn)生個別偉大思想家。第二段具體的論證了獨立思考涉及兩方面，既如自己一方種種，也得知對手的一方種種（內(nèi)容，推理，論點），才能真正獲得真理。 答案詳解 １

26、. ? ? ?B 獨立思考的必要性。見難句譯注１。這里說明進行獨立思考的人即使犯錯誤，真理也能從中獲得東西，而那些懶于思考人，即使持有正確的觀點，真理也難以獲得東西。第一段還點明思想禁錮時期，即不能進行獨立思考時期，難以討論重大議題，產(chǎn)生不了活躍的人民，絕不會出現(xiàn)像輝煌的文藝復(fù)興那種時期（見第二題注）。第二段也是圍繞獨立思考而寫，只是從具體點著眼：人只知自己，不知對方無法獲得真理，只有獨立思考兩方，才能不為權(quán)威所左右，不會跟著自己感覺走，最終知道自己的真正主張。 A. 理性時代?！　.　駁斥的價值?！　. ?激發(fā)人民的思想。 ２. ? ? ?C 熟悉有利于自己不同意／反對觀點的論點。這

27、是作者在第二段講述的重要論點。他認為一個人只知自己一方，推理極好，無人能反駁，卻不知對方的推理，也不能夠予以反駁的話，他就無權(quán)選擇兩方的任一論點，其理智位置是停止判斷。否則她就會（像世界上蕓蕓眾生那樣）不是為權(quán)威所“引導(dǎo)”，就是跟著感覺（的傾向）走。其二，作者提出：光聽自己的老師講述對立面的論點，以及他們所提出的反駁論點。只是不夠的，必須傾聽那些人（他們真正相信對立的觀點）的論點，并為此積極熱情，竭盡全力辯護，才能使自己的思想和獨立論點接觸，公正的作出公正的判斷。 A. 具有不能駁斥的觀點?！　. 采取個人感覺最傾向的觀點。 D. 停止有利于教條主義研究的異端思考。 ３. ? ? ?B

28、辯論原則問題。答案在第一段：在思想禁錮的氣氛中，過去，現(xiàn)在可能會產(chǎn)生個別的思想家，但絕不會有思想活躍的人民，在那里有一種心照不宣的慣律：原則決不能討論——認為占據(jù)人類心靈的最重大問題的討論應(yīng)封閉，我們不能期望看到一般高級的思想活動。這種思想活動曾使歷史上某些時期光輝燦爛。而文藝復(fù)興就是思想活動的頂峰時期，必然會討論原則問題，所以選B 。 A. ? ? ?接受真理，周經(jīng)過討論才能接受真理?！. 過度的熱情。 ?D. 害怕異端思考。 ４. ? ? ?C.　在辯論上，堅定不移。這是一道推斷題，一般講：持有未經(jīng)檢驗的正統(tǒng)信仰的人不會獨立思考，更不會懷疑他所信仰的東西。 A. ? ? ?為傳統(tǒng)

29、所奴役。　B. 不怎么理智。　D. 頭腦閉塞。這種人必然受傳統(tǒng)思想控制，不理智更不愿接受外界新鮮事物。 ５. ? ? ?B. 在思想方面取得成就的時期就是進行非正統(tǒng)反思的時期。見３題注釋。 A. ?一個真正的思想家不犯錯誤?！. 一個人的老師最能提供所接受思想觀點的反駁。　D. 過度的辯論會制止清晰的思考。 閱讀下列短文, 從給的四個選項 (A、B、C和D) 中, 選出最佳選項。 (2013·東北三省四市第二次聯(lián)考，A) I was driving home the other day on a sunny afternoon.

Then suddenly I found myself listening to yet another story of a rich famous man who had broken the law. I sho

31、ok my head as I came to a red traffic light. As I pulled to a stop I noticed four leatherjacketed bikers. They were standing in the middle of the road with two on either side of the light.

I rolled down my window as one approached my car. “We are the Brother of the Wheel，” he said. “We are collecting money for Christmas Toy Drive for needy children.” As I pulled a dollar out of my wallet I looked past his beard and into his eyes.
