Pragmatism is a philosophical movement that has had a major impact on American culture from the late 19th century to the present. Pragmatism calls【C1】________ideas and theories to be tested in practice, by【C2】________whether acting upon the idea or theory produces desirable or undesirable results.
The ideas of the pragmatists were considered【C3】________when they first appeared. To some critics, pragmatism’s【C4】________to affirm any absolute standards carried negative implications for society. 【C5】________, pragmatists do not believe that a single absolute idea of goodness or justice exists, but【C6】________that these concepts are changeable and depend on the【C7】________in which they are being discussed. The【C8】________of these absolutes, critics feared, could result in a(n) 【C9】________in moral standards. The pragmatists’ denial of absolutes, 【C10】________challenged the foundations of religion, government, and schools of thought. 【C11】________ pragmatism influenced developments in psychology, sociology, and many other schools and movements.【C12】________ political groups have also drawn【C13】________the assumptions of pragmatism, from the progressive movements of the early 20th century to later experiments in social reform.
Pragmatism is best【C14】________in its historical and cultural context. It arose during the late 19th century, a period of rapid scientific advancement【C15】________by the theories of British biologist Charles Darwin, whose theories【C16】________to many thinkers that humanity and society are in a【C17】________state of progress. During this same period, a decline in【C18】________religious beliefs and values accompanied the industrialization and material progress of the time. In【C19】________, it became necessary to rethink【C20】________ideas about values, religion, science, community, and individuality.
【C8】
选项
A、subject
B、defect
C、existence
D、absence
答案
D
解析
由前文中“pragmatists do not believe that a single absolute idea of goodness or justice exists”可知,实用主义者认为,不存在一个绝对的善良或正义的标准。因此可推知,批评者担心的是有可能导致道德标准下降的原因正是实用主义者对绝对的善良或正义标准存在的否定,即不存在这些绝对,故选D。
