第1题

Americans today don't place a very high value on intellect. Our heroes are athletes, enter
tainers, and entrepreneurs, not scholars. Even our schools are where we send our children to get a practical education—not to pursue knowledge for the sake of knowledge. Symptoms of pervasive anti-intellectualism in our schools aren't difficult to find.

"Schools have always been in a society where practical is more important than intellectual," says education writer Diane Ravitch. "Schools could be a counterbalance." Ravitch's latest book, Left Back. A Century of Failed School Reforms, traces the roots of anti-intellectualism in our schools, concluding they are anything but a counterbalance to the American distaste for intellectual pursuits.

But they could and should be. Encouraging kids to reject the life of the mind leaves them vulnerable to exploitation and control. Without the ability to think critically, to defend their ideas and understand the ideas of others, they cannot fully participate in our democracy. Continuing along this path, says writer Earl Shorris, "We will become a second-rate country. We will have a less civil society."

"Intellect is resented as a form. of power or privilege," writes historian and professor Richard Hofstadter in Anti-Intellectualism in American life, a Pulitzer Prize winning book on the roots of anti-intellectualism in US politics, religion, and education. From the beginning of our history, says Hofstadter, our democratic and populist urges have driven us to reject anything that smells of elitism. Practicality, common sense, and native intelligence have been considered more noble qualities than anything you could learn from a book.

Ralph Waldo Emerson and other Transcendentalist philosophers thought schooling and rigorous book learning put unnatural restraints on children: "We are shut up in schools and college recitation rooms for 10 or 15 years and come out at last with a bellyful of words and do not know a thing." Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn exemplified American anti-intellectualism. Its hero avoids being civilized—going to school and learning to read—so he can preserve his innate goodness.

Intellect, according to Hofstadter, is different from native intelligence, a quality we reluctantly admire. Intellect is the critical, creative, and contemplative side of the mind. Intelligence seeks to grasp, manipulate, re-order, and adjust, while intellect examines, ponders, wonders, theorizes, criticizes and imagines.

School remains a place where intellect is mistrusted. Hofstadter says our country's educational system is in the grips of people who "joyfully and militantly proclaim their hostility to intellect and their eagerness to identify with children who show the least intellectual promise".

What do American parents expect their children to acquire in school?

A.The habit of thinking independently.

B.Profound knowledge of the world.

C.Practical abilities for future career.

D.The confidence in intellectual pursuits.

PartA 2. TheNationalAssociationofSecuritiesDealersisinvestigatingwhethersomebrokerage

PartA 2. The National Association of Securities Dealers is investigating whether some brokerage

houses are inappropriately pushing individuals to borrow large sums on their houses

to invest in the stock market. Can we persuade the association to investigate would-be privatizers of Social Security? For it is now apparent that the Bush administration’s privatization proposal will amount to the same thing: borrow trillions, put the

money in the stock market and hope.

Privatization would begin by diverting payroll taxes, which pay for current Social

Security benefits, into personal investment accounts. The government would

have to borrow to make up the shortfall. This would sharply increase the government’s debt. “Never mind”, privatization advocates say, “in the long run, people would

make so much on personal accounts that the government could save money by cutting retirees’

benefits.Even so, if personal investment accounts were invested in Treasury bonds,

this whole process would accomplish precisely nothing. The interest workers would receive on,

their accounts would exactly match the interest the government would

have to pay on its additional debt. To compensate for the initial borrowing,

the government would have to cut future benefits so much that workers would gain nothing at all.

However, privatizersclaim that these investments would make a lot of

money and that, in effect, the government, not the workers, would reap most of those gains,

because as personal accounts grew, the government could cut benefits.

We can argue at length about whether the high stock returns such schemes assume are realistic

(they arent), but lets cut to the chase: in essence, such schemes

involve having the government borrow heavily and put the money in the stock market. That’s because the government would, in effect, confiscate workers’gains in their personal accounts by cutting those workers’ benefits.

Once you realize whatprivatization really means, it doesn’t sound too responsible, does it? But the details make it considerably worse. First,

financial markets would, correctly, treat the reality of huge deficits today as a much more

important indicator of the governments fiscal health than the mere promise that government could save money by

cutting benefits in the distant future. After all, a government bond is a legally binding

promise to pay, while a benefits formula that supposedly cuts costs 40 years from now is nothing

more than a suggestion to future Congresses.

If a privatization plan passed in 2005 called for steep benefit cuts in 2045,

what are the odds that those cuts would really happen? Second,

a system of personal accounts would pay huge brokerage fees. Of course, from Wall Street’s point of view that’s a benefit, not a cost.

第26题:According to the author, “privatizers”are those_____.

[A] borrowing from banks to invest in the stock market [B] who invest in Treasury bonds

[C] advocating the government to borrow money from citizens [D] who earn large sums of money in personal

accounts
