If it were only necessary to decide whether to teach elementary science to everyone on a mass basis or to find the gifted few and take them as far as they can go, our task would be fairly simple. The public school system, however, has no such choice, for the jobs must be carried on at the same time. Because we depend heavily upon science and technology for our progress, we must produce specialists in many fields. Because we live in a democratic nation, whose citizens make the policies for the nation, large numbers of us must be educated to understand, to support, and when necessary, to judge the work of experts. The public school must educate both producers and users of scientific services.
In education, there should be a good balance among the branches of knowledge that contribute to effective thinking and wise judgment. Such a balance is defeated by too much emphasis on any other field. This question of balance involves not only the relation of the natural sciences, the social sciences, and the arts but also relative emphasis among the natural sciences themselves.
Similarly, we must have a balance between current and classical knowledge. The attention of the public is continually drawn to the discovery of new knowledge; it should not be allowed to turn our attention away from the sound, established materials that form the basis of courses for beginners.
What can be inferred from the last paragraph? ( )
选项
A、Most people take great interest in classical knowledge.
B、Sufficient attention should be given to basic knowledge.
C、The discovery of new knowledge is particularly important.
D、Classical knowledge is more popular than current knowledge.
答案
B
解析
推理题。文章的最后一句话指出“...it should not be allowedto turn…”,即我们不允许忽视以前那些形成了初学者基础的合理健全的知识材料。也就是说我们不可以只接受新知识,而摒弃以前的基础知识。
