2、：12.50）_2.进入 21 世纪，发达国家所面临的共同问题，不是缺资金，而是缺人才；不是缺最新的资讯，而是缺最新的知识。 “知识”变成了一个国家是否进步的关键因素。把相关的知识系统地运用到经济活动中，现在泛称为“知识经济”。唯有通过外在的教育与学习，浩瀚的资讯才可能变成系统的知识。 “知识”像土地和劳力一样，是个古老的生产因素。但因为现代知识成长迅速，变化巨大，又加以与经济、产业、科技、创新等结合，促成了“知识经济”的独领风骚。 （分数：12.50）_3.最令人怵目惊心的一件事，是看着钟表上的秒针一下一下地移动，每移动一下就是表示我们的寿命已经缩短了一部分。再看看墙上挂着的可以一张张撕下的

3、日历，每天撕下一张就是表示我们的寿命又缩短了一天。因为时间即生命。没有人不爱惜他的生命，但很少有人珍视他的时间。如果想在有生之年做一点什么事，学一点什么学问，充实自己，帮助别人，使生命成为有意义，不虚此生，那么就不可浪费光阴。这道理人人都懂，可是很少人真能积极不懈地善于利用他的时间。 （分数：12.50）_4.作家有三种死法。一曰自然的死，二曰痛苦的死，三曰快乐的死。 自然的死属于心脏停止跳动，是一种普遍的死亡形式，没有特色，可以略而不议。快乐的死和痛苦的死不属于心脏停止跳动，是人还活着，作品已经、或几乎是没有了! 作家没有了作品，可以看作是个人艺术生命的死亡、职业的停顿。其中有些人是因为年事

4、已高，力不从心。这不是艺术的死亡，而是艺术的离休，他自己无可自责，社会也会尊重他在艺术上曾经做出的贡献。 （分数：12.50）_5.尽管品格在很大程度上依赖于性情和体魄、家庭教育、早期训练以及伙伴的榜样，每一个人还是有能力通过警醒的、坚持不懈的自制来规范、约束和砥砺他的品格。 自制是一切美德的基石。假使一个人放纵自己的冲动和情感，从那一刻起他也就放弃了道义上的自由。要获得道义上的自由，即超越动物，人类必须能够抵御本能的冲动，而这只有通过自制才能实现。 （分数：12.50）_6.我以为，快乐的面貌总有成千上万，且是变化多端的。有时候它的出现过于意外，令人大喜大悲，但更多时候，它出现的方式却又是那

5、么隐蔽，甚至让人觉得它平淡得近乎不存在。当然意外式的快乐，出现的几率微乎其微。而平淡式的快乐却正好相反，它产生于生活的角角落落，只待人们去发掘，去感悟。所以在寻找快乐的同时，更要享受生活，这才是快乐的不二秘诀。 （分数：12.50）_7.美国幸福杂志曾在征答栏中刊登过这么一个题目：假如让你重新选择，你做什么?一位军界要人的回答是去乡间开一个杂货铺；一位劳动部长是想做一家饮料公司的经理其间也有一般百姓的回答。想做总统的，想做外交官的，想做面包师的，应有尽有。但是，很少有人想做现在的自己。 人有时非常矛盾。本来活得好好的，各方面的环境都不错，然而当事者却常常心存厌倦。对人类这种因生命的平淡和缺少激

6、情而苦恼的心态，有时是不能用不知足来解释的。 （分数：12.50）_8.要一个人独自进食，即使不算重罚，在中国文化中通常也被视为不幸，一种不无悲凉的境地。汉语对吃独食的描述，大都乏善可陈，一句“胡乱吃了些”搪塞过去。中国人的社会中，人必须借饮食与他人沟通，与社会上的人形成生命共同体之感受。 如今，大家庭在解体，晚婚、单身及独居人士逐年增加。即使是全面重建中的民间社会，也不再是原有的形态。最起码，成为一家网站的会员就不需要请网管吃饭。聚众吃饭的机会少了，独自进食仍然是大部分社会成员心理上挥之不去的阴影。到处都在讨论“现代化(或全球化)的困境”，不知道独自进食算不算困境的一种。 （分数：12.50
