单选题 It is curious to note how slowly the mechanism of the intellectual life improves. Contrast the ordinary library facilities of a middle-class English home, such as the present writer is now working in, with the inconveniences and deficiencies of the equipment of an Alexandrian writer, and one realizes the enormous waste of time, physical exertion, and attention that went on through all the centuries during which that library flourished. Before the present writer lie half a dozen books, and there are good indices to three of them. He can pick up any one of these six books, refer quickly to a statement, verify a quotation, and go on writing. Contrast with the tedious un- folding of a rolled manuscript. Close at hand are two encyclopedias, a dictionary, an atlas of the world, a biographical dictionary, and other books of reference. They have no marginal indices, it is true, but that, perhaps, is asking too much at present. There were no such resources in the world in 300 B.C. Alexandria had still to produce the first grammar and the first dictionary. This present book is being written in manuscript; it is then taken by a typist and typewritten very accurately. It can then, with the utmost convenience, be read over, corrected amply, rearranged freely, retyped, and recorrected. The Alexandrian author had to dictate or recopy every word he wrote. Before he could turn back to what he had written previously, he had to dry his last words by waving them in the air or pouring sand over them; he had not even blotting-paper. Whatever an author wrote had to be recopied again and again before it could reach any considerable circle of readers, and every copyist introduced some new error. New books were dictated to a roomful of copyists, and so issued in a first edition of some hundreds at least. In Rome, Horace and Virgil seem to have been issued in quite considerable editions. Whenever a need for maps or diagrams arose, there were fresh difficulties. Such a science as anatomy, for example, depending as it does upon accurate drawing, must have been enormously hampered by the natural limitations of the copyist. The transmission of geographical fact again must have been almost incredibly tedious. No doubt a day will come when a private library and writing desk of the year A.D. 1925 will seem quaintly clumsy and difficult; but, measured by the standards of Alexandria, they are astonishingly quick, efficient, and economical of nervous and mental energy.

单选题Most injures can be prevented, provided a parent goes about it the right way. Mr. Grant was a skilled and capable surgeon. His wife--intelligent, charming and a qualified nurse--had suggested they see me about their 16-month-old son, Neville. Mrs. Grant spoke first. "We're both professional people, and I guess we're supposed to know more than most people. It hurts us to admit our little Neville is such a problem." "He's all over the house, climbing, handling things he's not supposed to be touching," Mr. Grant interrupted, "and we're afraid he'll badly injure himself and it'll be our fault." "Does he have some understanding of the word ' no'," I asked… "That's just it, we can't be sure if he has or not. Sometimes he seems to understand, but at other times he just doesn't seem to mind when we say 'no'," the father replied. "Teaching a child the meaning of the word 'no' can be crucial in preventing accidents. Unless your Neville can understand the true meaning of 'no'--and only you two can teach it to him at this stage--there's bound to be trouble," I stated emphatically. Children between the age of one and two often injure themselves, sometimes quite seriously, if they've not been properly trained to respond to the word 'no'. It's only natural that our child, having only recently learned to move about, should want to explore and find out about this big, beautiful world around him. His sense of curiosity gets the better of him. To begin with, the fewer "no's" you tell your child, the better off things it will be. This can be done by thoughtfully removing from the room all those forbidden objects you suspect he'll reach for. You must be absolutely consistent. Be quick, alert, and fast-acting in preventing him from reaching for a forbidden object. Draw his attention, towards something else he can play with.

单选题{{B}}Passage 4{{/B}} In width of scope, Yeats far exceeds any of his contemporaries. He is the only poet since the 18th century who has been a public man in his own country and the only poet since Milton who has been a public man at a time when his country was involved in a struggle for political liberty. This may not seem an important matter, but it is a question whether the kind of life lived by poets for the last two hundred years or so has not been one great reason for the drift of poetry away from the life of the community as a whole, and the loss of touch with tradition. Once the life of contemplation has been divorced from the life of action, or from real knowledge of men of action, something is lost which it is difficult to define, but which leaves poetry enfeebled and incomplete. Yeats responded with all his heart as a young man to the reality and the romance of Ireland's struggle but he lived to be completely disillusioned about the value of the Irish rebellion. He saw his dreams of liberty blotted out in horror by" the innumerable clanging wings that have put out the moon". It brought him to the final conclusion of the futility of all discipline that is not of the whole being, and of "how base at moments of excitement are minds without culture". But he remained a man to whom the life of action always meant something very real.
