Most of us grow up taking certain things for granted We tend to assume that experts and religious leaders tell us "the truth". We tend to believe that things advertised on television or in newspapers can’t be bad for us.
However, encouragement of critical thinking in students is one of the goals of most colleges and universities. Few professors require students to share the professors’ own beliefs. In general, professors are more concerned that students learn to question and critically examine the arguments of others, including some of their own beliefs or values. This does not mean that professors insist that you change your beliefs, either. It does mean, however, professors will usually ask you to support the views you express in class or in your writing.
If your premises(前提)are shaky, or if your arguments are not logical, professors personally point out the false reasoning in your arguments. Most professors want you to learn to recognize the premises of your arguments, to examine whether you really accept these premises, and to understand whether or not you draw logical conclusions. Put it this way: Professors don’t tell you what to think: they try to teach you how to think.
On the other hand, if you intend to disagree with your professors in class, you should be prepared to offer a strong argument in support of your ideas. Arguing just for the sake of arguing usually does not promote a critical examination of ideas. Many professors interpret it as rudeness.
In the first paragraph, the writer tries to tell us that people _____.
选项
A、easily accept certain things without a second thought
B、grow up through learning certain things in life
C、are forming their views during their growth
D、have strong beliefs in authorities while getting old
答案
A
解析
根据题目要求直接定位到第一段。该段第一句是主题句,表明许多人在成长的过程中总认为有些事情是理所当然的(take…for granted);然后作者举出人们总是倾向于相信权威和广告宣传的例子来证明这种说法。由此可见,人们会不假思索地接受一些事情,A项的表述正确。
