Like other forms of life on this planet, human beings face a basic task: to deal satisfactorily with their conflicts and thereby secure the advantages of community and cooperation. Unlike other forms of life, human beings are born with a capacity to reflect on this task and to search for better solutions by conscious thought and careful choices. The task of overcoming conflicts and achieving community life and cooperation arises because human beings are unable and unwilling to live in complete isolation. The advantages of cooperation and community life are so numerous and so obvious that they must have been evident to man from earliest times. By now, our ancestors have closed off the choice; for most of us the choice of total isolation from a community is, realistically speaking, no longer open. Nevertheless, however strongly human beings are driven to seek the company of one another, and despite thousands of years’ practice, they have never discovered a way in which they can live together without conflict. Conflict exists when one individual wishes to follow a line of action that would make it difficult or impossible for someone else to pursue his own desire. Conflict seems to be an incapable aspect of the community and consequently of human beings. Why conflict seems inescapable is a question that has troubled many people: philosophers, historians, social scientists, doubtless a great many ordinary people." Conflict is built into the very nature of men and women," said James Madison, "Human beings have diverse abilities, and these in turn produce diverse interests."
The main point of this passage is that ______.
选项
A、human beings by their nature will always conflict with each other
B、James Madison made many thoughtful comments about human beings as social animals
C、our need for fellowship and the advantages of cooperation create communities
D、humans have not yet been able to achieve complete harmony and to live without conflict
答案
A
解析
大意判断题,问的是该文的主要内容是什么,此答案应该建立在对文章通篇阅读理解基础之上。答案B说, James Madison对于人类作为社会性动物这一观点作出过很多富有思想的评论,这同真实历史相符合,但是并没有在文章中出现,且不是文章的主题;答案C是由第一段第三句话推论出来的,但同全文主题也不一致;答案D讲述的意思虽然也反映在文中,但是它并不是文章主题,而是主题导致的一个结果。而答案A认为“人类本性会导致相互冲突”,此观点乃本文逐步推理而得出来的最终结论,特别是以Madison的话作为结束语,最终显明此论点。
