Engineering students are supposed to be examples of practicality and rationality, but when it comes to my college education I am an idealist and a fool. In high school I wanted to be an electrical engineer and, of course, any sensible student with my aims would have chosen a college with a large engineering department, famous reputation and lots of good labs and research equipment. But that’s not what I did.
I chose to study engineering at a small liberal-arts (文科) university that doesn’t even offer a major in electrical engineering. Obviously, this was not a practical choice; I came here for more noble reasons. I wanted a broad education that would provide me with flexibility and a value system to guide me in my career. I wanted to open my eyes and expand my vision by interacting with people who weren’t studying science or engineering. My parents, teachers and other adults praised me for such a sensible choice. They told me I was wise and mature beyond my 18 years, and I believed them.
I headed off to college and was sure I was going to have an advantage over those students who went to big engineering "factories" where they didn’t care if you had values or were flexible. I was going to be a complete engineer: technical genius and sensitive humanist (人文学者) all in one.
Now I’m not so sure. Somewhere along the way my noble ideals crashed into reality, as all noble ideals eventually do. After three years of struggling to balance math, physics and engineering courses with liberal-arts courses, I have learned there are reasons why few engineering students try to reconcile (协调) engineering with liberal-arts courses in college.
The reality that has blocked my path to become the typical successful student is that engineering and the liberal arts simply don’t mix as easily as I assumed in high school. Individually they shape a person in very different ways; together they threaten to confuse. The struggle to reconcile the two fields of study is difficult.
According to the author, by interacting with people who study liberal arts, engineering students can________.
选项
A、balance engineering and the liberal arts
B、receive guidance in their careers
C、become noble idealists
D、broaden their horizons
答案
D
解析
本题问题是“根据作者,通过与学习文科的人们互动,工程类学生可以怎样?”,“by interacting with people who study liberal arts"是重点定位词,定位在第二段第四行(第一题的定位处以下)“I wanted to open eyes and expand my vision by interacting with people who weren’t studying science and engineering. ”,意思是“通过与不是学习理科及工科的人们互动我想开拓眼界”;分析选项:A. 使工科与文科平衡;B. 获得事业中的指导;C. 成为崇高的理想主义者;D. 开阔视野;D与原文定位处相符,因此本题答案是D。
