(1)"Can we speak of the death of the university?" an English newspaper recently asked. Another offered the diagnosis: "Still breathing." Not only at this seminar, here and now, but all over the world the future of the universities is now being discussed. This is not only because we are entering a new century. Many people are asking whether the traditional research universities in fact have any future at all. This doubt seems mainly to be due to the development of the new technology, the massification of the universities, the idea of life long learning, the growing competition from other learning institutions—and may be also because of the strong specialization that we now are experiencing in most fields of research. Many experts predict the demise of universities as we know them today, with a campus.
(2)Most universities in the western world—at least the public universities—are now experiencing a serious lack of funds, and the institutional solidarity must not take a form that leads to a draining of strength and vitality of the universities. There are, however, many ways of showing solidarity without using too much of the universities’ own funding. One of the tasks of the universities is to keep reminding the authorities of the importance of spending money on research and education in developing countries. The universities themselves must work in close co-operation with the development-aid agencies where the government provides most of the economic resources and the universities provide the competence. It is also possible to share knowledge by giving easier access to recent findings, to make possible academic mobility and increased technical cooperation among regional groupings. Various academic cooperation programs may protect against brain-drain, which is now a serious threat in many countries.
(3)Only through the development of local skill and competence, through increased numbers of providers and users of knowledge, can the developing countries bridge the gap separating them from developed countries. And the bridging of this gap will lead to societies that are freer and more peaceful. The universities have the competence, the possibility and therefore also a duty to promote the "intellectual and moral solidarity of mankind" as stated in the UNESCO’s constitution.
The UNESCO is most concerned about _______.
选项
A、the gap between developing and developed nations
B、how to make our society freer and more peaceful
C、the role universities should play in the society
D、how universities develop their competence
答案
C
解析
根据题干中的UNESCO定位到最后一句。该句的两个要点是“大学”和“人类”,该句表明UNESCO最关注的是“大学”对“人类社会”的影响,据此可判断C是正确的说法。其他选项没有同时提到这两者,或这两者之间的关系。
