单选题{{B}}Passage Two{{/B}}
It is hard to predict how science is
going to turn out, and if it is really good science it is impossible to predict.
If the things to be found are actually new, they are by definition unknown in
advance. You cannot make choices in this matter. You either have science or you
don't, and if you have it you are obliged to accept the surprising and
disturbing pieces of information, along with the neat and promptly useful
bits. The only solid piece of scientific truth about which I
feel totally confident is that we are profoundly ignorant about nature. Indeed,
I regard this as the major discovery of the past hundred years of biology. It
is, in its Way, an illuminating piece of news. It would have amazed the
brightest minds of the 18th century Enlightenment to be told by any
of us how little we know and how bewildering seems the way ahead. It is this
sudden confrontation with the depth and scope of ignorance that represents
the most significant contribution of the 20th century science to the
human intellect. In earlier times, we either pretended to understand how things
worked or ignored the problem, or simply made up stories to fill the gaps. Now
that we have begun exploring in earnest, we are getting glimpses of how huge the
questions are, and how far from being answered. Because of this, we are
depressed. It is not so bad being ignorant if you are totally ignorant;
the hard thing is knowing in some detail the reality of ignorance, the
worst spots and here and there the not-so-bad spots, but no true light at the
end of the tunnel nor even any tunnels that can yet be trusted.
But we are making a beginning, and there ought to be some satisfaction.
There are probably no questions we can think up that can't beanswered, sooner or
later, including even the matter of consciousness. To be sure, there may well be
questions we can't think up, ever and therefore limits to the reach of human
intellect, but that is another matter. Within our limits, we should be
able to work our way through to all our answers, if we keep at it long enough,
and pay attention.

单选题{{B}}Passage 2{{/B}}
With the US economy slowing down,
layoffs are everywhere. No industry is spared. If you end up having to start
over, in addition to starting your job search, there are several things you
should take care of to make your transition a smooth one. First
and foremost, clear up any misunderstanding about how and why you left your last
job with your ex-boss. Whether you left voluntarily, were fired or were laid off
due to budget cutbacks, make sure you both have the same explanation. Agree on
job titles accordingly. Also ask for a reference if you think your ex-boss will
offer one and you trust that he or she will speak honestly about your
performance. You should have a source of emergency cash that you
can use in the interim. Don't panic and liquidate your stocks and bonds just
yet, be optimistic in your prospects while also be more frugal than usual. You
should save money on not having to dry clean work clothes so often and eating
less take-out lunches. Save money by not eating out at restaurants and watch
videos rather than going to the movies every weekend. Make a note of your job
hunting expenses, such as career counselors' consulting fees and resume printing
costs, and save the receipts. By next year's tax-filing time, you could get
deductions on your job-search expense (unless you left a job willingly or was a
college graduate looking for your first job). Most companies
terminate your medical insurance coverage as soon as you stop working for them.
But it doesn't mean you have to forgo medical coverage altogether. There is
something called Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA) in the
United States that legally protects an ex-employee's right to stay in the
company's health care plan. However, the company will stop paying your premiums,
and you will have to pay out of your pocket the expenses. This is still a good
option compared to no health insurance at all. Another important
thing to take care of when you change jobs is your 401(k) account. A 401(k) is
the retirement fund that most companies offer. It's named after section 401(k)
in the Internal Revenue Service's policy documents. You put aside a percentage
of your paycheck each pay period, and the money accumulated will be managed by
the 401(k) fund manager your employer has hired and is invested in the stock
market. You cannot withdraw money from this account until you reach this age, or
you will incur penalties. When you leave a job, the money can sometimes be kept
with your ex-employer for a while. It's always a good idea to compare your new
employer's 401(k) plan with your old one. Every company offers different types
of investment options, from overseas stocks to high-tech stocks and everything
in between. If you do want to transfer the account to your new employer, you
need to go to the human resources department and ask for forms that help you
make the transition. Don't forget to ask for job leads from your
ex-coworkers. Even if you are leaving for a job in another industry, you never
know what people they happen to know that can help with your job search. Keep in
touch with the friends you have made at your old job. Remember to anchor
yourself to people, not institutions, and you will find that any transition is
made easier.
