Hence, too, the need for some compass in the ocean of available printed matter. (分数:60.00)_正确答案:()解析:总的来说,书本的寿命要比我们自己长。常常是写书的人早已化为了一堆黄土而其著作却依旧立在书架上积聚尘土,但恰恰是死后占有这一席之地
20、的欲望促使人们笔耕不辍。 所以,当我们手中摆弄和翻动这些方块形物体的时候,设想我们手里抚弄的不是具体的书本,而是盛着我们自己回归大地的骨灰的瓮,那也没什么不对。毕竟,写一本书投入进去的,说到底是一个人只有一次的生命。有人说过进行哲学思考就是一步步趋向死亡。不管是谁说的,这种说法从几种意义来说都是有道理的,因为一个人绝不会因为写一本书而变年轻。 同样读一本书也不会使人更年轻。既然如此,我们自然倾向于读好书。然而,困难在于文学中的“好”是通过区别“坏”来鉴定的。此外,要写出一本好书,一个作家必须阅读大量平庸读物,否则他是没法找到必要的写作标准的。这可能就会为坏文学作品在最后审判日为自己辩护的最佳理
21、由。 既然我们精力不济,既然读书很耗费时间,我们就必须找出一个能让我们至少表面上省时省力的方法来。当然不可否认长时间读一本厚厚的、情节发展缓慢的平庸小说所带来的乐趣,但我们最终目的毕竟不是为读书而读书,而是为了学到点什么。因此,我们需要一些最大限度地浓缩人生矛盾困境的作品,需要一些在浩如烟海的书籍中类似指南针一样的作品。32.我常想,窗可以算房屋的眼睛。眼睛是灵魂的窗户,我们看见外界,同时也让人看到我们的内心;眼睛往往跟着心在转。我们跟戴黑眼镜的人谈话,总觉得捉摸不住他的用意,仿佛他以假面具相对,就是为此。歌德恨一切戴眼镜的人,说他们看得清楚他脸上的皱纹,但是他给他们的玻璃片耀得眼花缭乱,看不

23、00)_正确答案:()解析:I often think that the window is the eye of a house. They say that the eyes are the windows of the soul. With the eyes we see the world, and at the same time they let others see our inner selves; the eyes communicate the movements and turnings of the heart. That is why it is always dif
24、ficult to figure out the intentions of someone wearing dark glasses. It seems as if we are talking to someone wearing a mask. Goethe hated everyone with glasses, saying that they could see the wrinkles on his face, while the dazzling glare of their lenses would prevent him from seeing what was on in
25、 their minds. A window likewise allows those who are inside to see outside, and also allows outsiders to see inside. That is why those who live in bustling areas need to draw their curtains to protect their privacy. When visiting friends at night, there“s no need to wait until the door is opened to
26、ask if they“re there. Similarly, you don“t need to wait for a man to open his mouth to work out what“s on his mindyou can see that from his eyes. Shutting a window works in the same way as closing one“s eyes. There are many things that can be seen only with the eyes closed. Dreams, for instance. If
27、outside there is too much noise and excitement, closing the window will make it easier for the soul to engage in free exploration and quiet contemplation. Sometimes closing the eyes is connected to shutting the windows: when you feel that the world outside is so commonplace and unrewarding that you want to go back to your hometown and see relatives and friends from whom you have been long parted, all you have to do is to shut the window, close your eyes and dream.
