To be "historically minded" is to see things in relation and in perspective, and to judge tolerantly. We must remember how differently men have thought and acted in different times. We must always keep an open mind, ready to receive and weigh new evidence. If we grasp this idea, we will never think that a historian is someone who can remember dates. That childish idea is like calling a man a statesman because he can remember the names of voters in his district. A waiter could remember more names and a telephone operator more numbers than the greatest historian.
The true historian is not content to take all his facts from other historians. Today he makes sure that his statements are based on sound "documents" or "sources" which go back to the time of the facts themselves.
But the historian needs always to be in his guard net to be misled by his sources. A document may net be a real one. Its author may be lying on purpose for some reasons. He may be so greatly influenced by national, religious, party or personal backgrounds as to be totally unfair to the other side. If honest, he may be misinformed as to the facts and mistaken in his inferences.
Anyone who reads the accounts published in the different countries concerning the causes and results of wars will realize that the historian needs caution and training in handling these sources. The trained historian asks first: "Did this writer mean to tell the truth?" and second; "Was he in a position or frame of mind to tell the truth even if he wants to?" Every statement must be patiently weighed and tested and combined with all other available information in order to get at the truth.
A "historically minded" researcher ______.
选项
A、always keeps an open mind to history
B、looks at one historical event without relating it to another
C、sees things from a single point of view
D、refuses to accept new evidence
答案
A
解析
本文第一段就提出“To be“historically minded” is to see things in relation and in perspective;We must always keep an open mind,ready to receive and weigh new evidence.”具有历史思想就是指能够联系各个方面、从各个角度正确地看问题,我们必须总是对历史持虚心坦率的态度,随时准备接收和衡量新的证据,由此可见,答案为A。
