For countless times in history, people have explored the
relationship between science and classics. The pioneers of the teaching
of science imagined that its introduction into education would remove the
conventional, artificiality, and backward-lookingness which were【S1】________
characteristic of classical studies, but they were gravely disappointed.
So, too, in their time the humanists thought that the study of the【S2】________
classical authors in the original would banish for once the dull pedantry【S3】________
and superstition of mediaeval scholasticism. The professional
schoolmaster was the match for both of them, and has almost managed【S4】________
to make the understanding of chemical reactions as dull and as dogmatic
an affair as the reading of Virgil’s Aeneid.
The chief claim for the use of science in education is that it teaches
a child something about the actual universe in which he is living, in
making him acquainting with the results of scientific discovery, and at【S5】________
the same time teaches him how to think logical and inductively by【S6】________
studying scientific method. A certain limited success has been reached in
the first of these aims, but practically none at all in the second. That【S7】________
privileged members of the community who have been through in a【S8】________
secondary or public school education may be expected to know
something about the elementary physics and chemistry of a hundred
years ago, but they probably know hard more than any bright boy can【S9】________
pick up from an interest in wireless or scientific hobbies out of school
hours.
As to the learning of scientific method, the whole thing is palpably
a farce. Actually, for the convenience of teachers and the requirements
of the examination system, it is necessary that the pupils not only do not
learn scientific method but learn precisely the reverse, that is, to believe
exactly that they are told and to reproduce it when asked, whether it【S10】________
seems nonsense to them or not.
【S9】
选项
答案
hard—hardly
解析
词义混淆。该句意为“……但是他们所知道的几乎并不比那些聪明男孩子出于兴趣而在业余时间内学到的无线电或者科学知识更多。”此句带有否定含义,故将hard改为hardly。
