问题     Each of us seeks our own path to bliss. In accepting the Nobel Prize from the Swedish King in 1980, I said that I had been doubly blessed. For in addition to receiving the recognition and distinction represented by the Nobel Prize, the research itself had given me indescribable pleasure. This kind of bliss is not uniquely(独特地)available to scientists only. Literature, music, art, even business, offers comparable rewards. It is there for all who venture beyond the realm of accepted knowledge and experience. Such adventuiss are challenging and demanding but well worth of the effort.
    For me, the adventure began as a young boy in secondary school. The wide range of questions we asked our teachers were rarely met with direct answers. Instead, our teachers encouraged us to find the answers by leading us to books, and most often to more than we had expected. Frequently, our teachers suggested ways to find the answers by searching the reference books that were available in libraries or by actual experimentation. As we progressed to high school, the teachers encouraged us to ask questions that went beyond our and their knowledge and experience, and to speculate(推测)on matters we could not find answers to. Later, when I was in a science club, I was challenged to solve problems about the natural world by experimentation. Perhaps it was those early experiences that sharpened my appetite for exploring the unknown and seeking solutions.
    Looking back on that period, I realize now that encouraging young people to discover for themselves the answers is not the easiest way to learn but it is the most rewarding. Developing curiosity and the instinct for seeking creative solutions are perhaps the most important contributions education can make. Schools everywhere would do well to pay attention to that lesson. And students everywhere must accept the responsibility that such an educational system places on them.
Why did the author say that he had been doubly blessed?
选项 A、Because he won the Nobel Prize in 1980.
B、Because he thought the bliss of receiving Nobel Prize was unique.
C、Because he received pleasure as well as recognition and fame.
D、Because he had sought his own path to happiness.
答案C
解析 根据题干中的doubly blessed定位到第一段第二句。第二、三句提到，作者认为他是一个获得了双重幸福的人，原因在于，除了获得诺贝尔奖给他带来的认可和名望外，研究工作本身也给了作者难以形容的欢乐。C)的意思和文章一致，是对原文的同义转述。
