单选题An essay which appeals chiefly to the intellect is Francis Bacon's "Of Studies." His careful tripartite division of studies expressed succinctly in apho- Line ristic prose demands the complete attention of the (5) mind of the reader. He considers studies as they should be: for pleasure, for self-improvement, for business. He considers the evils of excess study: laziness, affectation, and preciosity. Bacon divides books into three categories: those to be read in (10) part, those to be read cursorily, and those to be read with care. Studies should include reading, which gives depth; speaking, which adds readiness of thought; and writing, which trains in precise- ness. Somewhat mistakenly, the author ascribes (15) certain virtues to individual fields of study: wis- dom to history, wit to poetry, subtlety to mathe- matics, and depth to natural philosophy. Bacon's four-hundred-word essay, studded with Latin phrases and highly compressed in thought, has (20) intellectual appeal indeed.
