问答题
The enlightenment needs rescuing, or so thinks Jonathan
Israel, the pre-eminent historian of 17th-century Holland. In 2001 he published
Radical Enlightenment. He now offers a second Volume with a third to come. (46)
{{U}}The three volumes will be the first comprehensive history of the
Enlightenment for decades--and Mr. Israel's groundbreaking interpretation looks
set to establish itself as the one to beat.{{/U}} The period was
once thought of as a glorious chapter in the history of mankind, a time when the
forces of light (science, progress and tolerance) triumphed over the forces of
darkness (superstition and prejudice). Today, the Enlightenment tends to be
dismissed. (47){{U}}Post-modernists attack it for being biased, self-deceived and
ultimately responsible for the worst in Western civilization.{{/U}}
Post-colonialists accuse it of being Eurocentric, an apology for imperialism.
Nationalist historians reject the idea of a coherent universal movement,
preferring to talk about the English, French, even Icelandic
Enlightenments. Mr. Israel has set himself the task oil
repelling these critics and re-establishing the period as the defining episode
in the liberation of man. His arguments are convincing. He contends that there
were two Enlightenments, one Radical, and the other Moderate. The Radicals,
inspired by Spinoza, were materialists, atheists and equalities. (48){{U}}The
Moderates, who followed Locke and Newton, were conservative and more at home
than the Radicals in the hierarchical and deeply religious world of 18th-century
Europe.{{/U}} They advocated only a partial Enlightenment. In Mr.
Israel's opinion, the Radicals offered the only true Enlightenment, giving us
democracy, equality, individual liberty and secular morality. The Moderates, on
the other hand, have left an ambiguous and, in the end, harmful legacy. While
promoting tolerance, they remained uncomfortable with the idea of universal
equality. While advancing reason, they failed to divorce morality from religion
and tried to rationalize faith. (49) {{U}}Mr. Israel argues that for as long as
historians treat the two wings of the Enlightenment as a single movement, they
have misunderstood the phenomenon.{{/U}} Worst still, they supply today's critics
with the evidence they need to blacken the movement. This
re-evaluation makes for an unfamiliar picture of the Enlightenment and its
torchbearers. According to Mr. Israel, "enlightened values" were born not in
England but in Holland, and he re-casts men such as Locke, Voltaire and even
Hume, once thought of as champions of the party of light, as apologists for
colonialism and enemies of equality. In addition, Mr. Israel would like his book
to be studied beyond academia. In an ideal world everyone would be reading it.
(50) {{U}}His stupendous research and grasp of the sources are such that few will
contest his core argument that the Enlightenment was a coherent, Europe-wide
phenomenon, intellectual in origin, which represented a profound shift in the
way that men thought about themselves and the world around them.{{/U}}
问答题At the start of the year, The Independent on Sunday argued that there were three over-whelming reasons why Iraq should not be invaded: there was no proof that Saddam posed an imminent threat; Iraq would be even more trustable as a result of its liberation; and a conflict would increase the threat posed by terrorists. (1) What we did not know was that Tony Blair had received intelligence and advice that raised the very same points. Last week's report from the Intelligence and Security Committee included the revelation that some of the intelligence had warned that a war against Iraq risked an increased threat of terrorism. Why did Mr. Blair not make this evidence available to the public in the way that so much of the alarmist intelligence on Saddam's weapons was published? (2) Why did he choose to ignore the intelligence and argue instead that the war was necessary, precisely because of the threat posed by international terrorism? There have been two parliamentary investigations into this war and the Hutton inquiry reopens tomorrow. (3) In their different ways they have been illuminating, but none of them has addressed the main issues relating to the war. The Foreign Affairs Committee had the scope to range widely, but chose to become entangled in the dispute between the Government and the BBC. The Intelligence Committee reached the conclusion that the Government's file on Saddam's weapons was not mixed up, but failed to explain why the intelligence was so hopelessly wrong. The Hutton inquiry is investigating the death of Dr. David Kelly, a personal tragedy of marginal relevance to the war against Iraq. Tony Blair has still to come under close examination about his conduct in the building-up to war. Instead, the Defence Secretary, Geoff Hoon, is being fingered as if he were master-minding the war behind everyone's backs from the Ministry of Defence. Mr. Hoon is not a minister who dares to think without consulting Downing Street first. At all times he would have been dancing to Downing Street's tunes. Mr. Blair would be wrong to assume that he can draw a line under all of this by making Mr. Hoon the fall-guy. (4) It was Mr. Blair who decided to take Britain to war, and a Cabinet of largely skeptical ministers that backed him. It was Mr. Blair who told MPs that unless Saddam was removed, terrorists would pose a greater global threat—even though he had received intelligence that suggested a war would lead to an increase in terrorism. Parliament should be the forum in which the Prime Minister is called more fully to account, but lain Duncan Smith's support for the war has neutered an already inept opposition. (5) In the absence of proper parliamentary scrutiny, it is left to newspapers like this one to keep asking the most important questions until the Prime Minister answers them.
问答题Green space facilities are contributing to an important extent to the quality of the urban environment. Fortunately it is no longer necessary that every lecture or every book about this subject has to start with the proof of this idea. 46.
At present it is generally accepted, although more as a selfevident statement than on the basis of a closely-reasoned scienfifie proof. The recognition of the importance of green space in the urban environment is a first step on the right way
. 47.
This doesn" t mean, however, that sufficient details are known about tile functions of green space in towns and about the way in which the inhabitants are using these spaces.
As to this rather complex subject I shall, within the scope of this lecture, enter into one aspect only, namely the re-creative function of green space facilities.
48.
The theoretical separation of living, working, traffic, and recreation, which for many years has been used in town-and-country planning, has resulted in disproportionate attention for forms of recreation far from home, whereas there has been relatively little attention for improving re-creative possibilities in the direct neighborhood of the home. 49. We have come to the conclusion that this isn" t right, because an important part of the time which we don" t pass in sleeping or working is used for activities at and around home.
So it is obvious that recreation in the open air has to begin at the front door.
50.
The urban environment has to offer as many recreation activities as possible, and the design of these has to be such that more obligatory activities can also have a re-creative aspect.
The very best standard of living is nothing if it is not possible to take a pleasant walk in the district, if the children can" t be allowed to play in the streets, because the risks of traffic are too great, if during shopping you can nowhere find a spot for enjoying for a moment the nice weather, in short, if you only feel yourself at home after the front door is shut.

Where one stage of child development has been left out, or not
sufficiently experienced, the child may have to go back and capture the
experience of it. A good home makes this possible, for example by providing the
opportunity for the child to play with a clockwork car or toy railway train up
to any age if he still needs to do so. (46){{U}}This principle, in fact, underlies
all psychological treatment of children in difficulties with their development,
and is the basis of work in child clinics.{{/U}} The beginnings of
discipline are in the nursery. Even the youngest baby is taught by gradual
stages to wait for food, to sleep and wake at regular intervals and so on. If
the child feels the world around him is a warm and friendly one, he slowly
accepts its rhythm and accustoms himself to conforming to its demands.
(47){{U}}Learning to wait for things, particularly for food, is a very important
element in upbringing, and is achieved successfully only if too great demands
are not made before the child can understand them.{{/U}} Every
parent watches eagerly the child’s acquisition of each new skill — the first
spoken words, the first independent steps, or the beginning of reading and
writing. (48){{U}}It is often tempting to hurry the child beyond his natural
learning rate, but this can set up dangerous feeling of failure and states of
anxiety in the child.{{/U}} This might happen at any stage. A baby might be forced
to use a toilet too early; a young child might be encouraged to learn to read
before he knows the meaning of the words he reads. (49){{U}}On the other hand,
though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning
opportunities, he loses his natural zest for life and his desire to find out new
things for himself.{{/U}} Learning together is a fruit source of
relationship between children and parents. By playing together, parents learn
more about their children and children learn more from their parents. Toys and
games which both parents and children can share are an important means of
achieving this co-operation. Building-block toys, jigsaw puzzles and crossword
are good examples. Parents vary greatly in their degree of
strictness or indulgence towards their children. Some may be especially strict
in money matters; others are severe over times of coming home at night,
punctuality for meals or personal cleanliness. (50){{U}}In general, the controls
imposed represent the needs of the parents and the values of the community as
much as the child’s own happiness and well-being.{{/U}}
