Humans are unique in the extent to which they can reflect on themselves and others. Humans are a-ble to 1 , to think in abstract terms, to reflect on the future. A meaningless, 2 world is an insecure world. We do not like extensive insecurity. When it 3 to human behavior we infer meaning and 4 to make the behavior understandable. What all this means is that people develop "quasi theories" of human behavior, that is, theories that are not developed in an objective, scientific 5 When doing so, people believe they know 6 humans do the things they do.
Let’s consider an example. In the United States people have been 7 with the increasing amount of crime for several years. The extent of crime bothers us; we ourselves could be 8 But what also bothers us is that people behave in such ways. Why can such things happen? We develop quasi theories. We 9 concerned about the high crime rate, but we now believe we 10 it; our criminal justice system is 11 ; people have grown selfish and inconsiderate as our moral values 12 from the influence of liberal ideas; too many people are 13 drugs. These explanations suggest possible solutions. 14 the courts; put more people in jail as 15 to other law breakers. There is hope that the problem of crime can be solved if only we 16 these solutions. Again, the world is no longer meaningless nor 17 so threatening.
These quasi theories 18 serve a very important function for us. But how accurate are they? How 19 will the suggested solutions be? These questions must be answered 20 how people normally go about developing or attaining their quasi theories of human behavior.
选项
A、understand
B、reason
C、meditate
D、reckon
答案
B
解析
本文主要讲述人们对问题的思考能力,又根据该句中的并列成分“to think in abstract terms,to reflect on the future”,可知答案为reason,意为“推理”。[A]understand需要加宾语才符合语法;[C]meditate“深思,默想”,常跟on或upon引出宾语;[D]reckon“预料,料想”,常跟that引出宾语从句。
