Albert Einstein once attributed the creativity of a famous scientist to the fact that he never went to school, and therefore preserved the rare gift of thinking freely. There is undoubtedly a truth in Einstein’s observation;many artists and geniuses seem to view their schooling as a disadvantage. But such a truth is not a criticism of schools. It is the function of schools to civilize, not to train explorers. The explorer is always a lonely individual whether his or her pioneering be in art, music, science or technology. The creative explorer of unmapped lands shares with the genius what William James described as the "faculty of perceiving in an unhabitual way. " In so far as schools teach perceptual patterns they tend to destroy creativity and genius. But if school could somewhat exist solely to cultivate genius, then society would break down. For the social order demands unity and widespread agreement, both traits that are destructive to creativity. There will always be conflict between the demands of society and the impulses of creativity and genius.
Einstein’ s observation is in accord with______. ( )
选项
A、the schoolmaster’ s
B、the author’s
C、that of many artists
D、both B and C
答案
D
解析
归纳题。从“There is undoubtedly a truth…as a disadvantage”一句可知,Einstein的评论与许多艺术家和作者的观点是一致的。他们都认为学校不利于人们的自由思考。
