问题     Our generation has made such immense discoveries and achieved undreamed enrichments of the outside of life, that it has lost touch with the inside of life. It has forgotten the true riches and beauties of its spiritual inheritance: riches and beauties that go far beyond our modern chatter about values and ideals. The mind’s search for more breadth has obscured the heart’s craving for more depth. Once again man has become the dupe of his own cleverness. And because it is difficult to attend to more than a few things at a time, we leave out a great range of experiences which comes in by another route and tells us of another kind of life. Our interest rushes out to the farthest limits of the universe, but we seldom take a sounding of the ocean beneath our restless keels. We get, therefore, a queer feeling that we are leaving something out. Knowledge has grown; but wisdom, savoring the deep wonder and mystery of life, lingers far behind. Thus the life of the human spirit, which ought to maintain a balance between the world visible and the world invisible, is thrown out of gear.  
The phrase "take a sounding of the ocean beneath our restless keels" most nearly means ______ .
选项 A、to find out the depth of water while sailing at sea
B、to explore the environment we are living in
C、to listen to the current movement beneath the ship
D、to try to find out in depth the wonder and mystery of life
答案D
解析
