A Most Important Period in Greek
One of the most important periods in Greek history was the Hellenistic Age which began after the death of Alexander the Great in 323 B. C., and lasted almost 200 years. It was during this time in history that Greek ideas and Greek culture spread into Egypt and throughout the Near East. A Greek state even existed (51) India. During the Hellenistic Age, there were great advances (52) in Greek scholarship in such areas as philosophy, science, religion, art and social justice. Important discoveries were made in the (53) . Eratosthenes, for instance, made an accurate calculation (54) the diameter of the earth, while Aristarchus declared that the earth (55) round. Social reformers attempted to (56) debt and (57) a program of land redistribution among the poor hut met with little success. Women achieved a better social (58) and among the middle class education became widespread.
Peace of mind was the great concern of the philosophers of the Hellenistic Age. The Stoics insisted that happiness could be achieved when (59) learned to accept the events which were (60) his control and, at the same time, did his duty. The Epicureans (61) the idea that moderation in pleasure and the avoidance of pain produced the desired result. The Cynics turned away from all desires and pleasures, and (62) pursuit of virtue. In religion, many Greeks (63) the worship of such Egyptian gods as Serapis and Isis.

The Romans brought the Hellenistic Age to a close when they conquered the last major power, Egypt, in 30 B. C.
选项
A、beyond
B、within
C、among
D、against
答案
C
解析
此题属于语法题。选项B within意为“(程度、范围、场所等)之内”,例如:keep within the law(在法律的范围内);选项C among意为“(多数)之中,之间”,例如:I was among the crowd(我处身在人群中)。与上文fighting against each other(彼此之间斗争)相对应的应该是among themselves(内部斗争),所以C是正确答案。选项A beyond意为“超越”;选项D against意为“反对”;这两项都不符合题意。
