Traditionally, universities have carried out two main activities: research and teaching. Many experts would argue that both these activities play a critical role in serving the community. The fundamental question, however, is how does the community want or need to be served?
In recent years universities have been coming under increasing pressure from both the governments and the public to ensure that they do not remain "ivory towers (象牙塔)" of study separated from the realities of everyday life. University teachers have been encouraged, and in some cases constrained (强逼), to provide more courses which produce graduates with the technical skills required for the commercial use. (78) If Aristotle wanted to work in a university in the UK today, he would have a good chance of teaching computer science but would not be so readily employable as a philosopher.
A post-industrial society requires large numbers of computer programmers, engineers, managers and technicians to maintain and develop its economic growth but "man", as the Bible says, "does not live by bread alone. " (79) Apart from requiring medical and social services, which do not directly contribute to economic growth, the society should also value and enjoy literature, music and the arts. Because they can also promote economic growth. A successful musical play, for instance, can contribute as much to the Gross National Product through tourist dollars as any other things.
We can infer from the second paragraph that ______
选项
A、the society is not satisfied with the present college education
B、the governments interfere too much with college education
C、teacher are forced to do what they don’t like to do
D、teachers dislike teaching commercially useful courses
答案
A
解析
推理判断题。第二段是说政府和社会对现在的大学教育不是很满意,因为大学成为脱离社会的“象牙塔”,为此老师们正在采取一些改变的措施;B、C、D都是对文中意思的错误理解,所以选A。
