Of course, its easy to bee trapped in writing only for the period a person lives in, and a philosophy is ne _ssarily depend

5、ent on the historical situation and the extent of _ns knowledge. (41). However, Victor Hugo said that if he were writing for his own time only, he would have to break his pen and throw it away. (42). And it seems to me that the most frequent objections to modern and premodern philosophers e from the

6、 inpatibility of their philosophies with what is considered to be established scientific fact. For instan _, Platos theory of forms does not, to me, seem to jibe with modern physics and co _ology. And although I can only vaguely glimpse the psychology which underlies Kant, it seems to be highly ques

7、tionable. (43) . (44). History is, of course, ne _ssary to any understanding of a philosophy: how it came about, what people did with it, etc. Sartre, although he developed some of his ideas from Nietzsche and Kierkegaard, probably could not have expounded those same ideas of existentiali _ in their

8、 times; Nietzsche, who popularized the idea that “God is dead”, could not have written in the time of Descartes; and Descartes could not have expressed his radically individualist ideas during the time of Plato. I suppose that my point, which I am being ex _edingly longwinded about, is that philosop

9、hy does not (and should not, and must not) stand apart from the rest of the scien _s. (45) . Although the other scien _s can provide us with data, observations, and theories, only philosophy can integrate those into a coherent whole, _ us what to do with them, or provide a meaningful context for usi

10、ng these facts in our daily lives. A In my view, application of Kants epistemology and metaphysics could never produ _ an artificial in _igen _ capable of passing a Turing test. B Rather, philosophy should be integrated with the rest of the scien _s through a method of rational judgment. Rather than

11、 sailing behind, or next to but away from, the rest of the scien _s, Philosophy should be the flagship of the group. C And _ny of the philosophers who have existed over the course of the _nturies have ne _ssarily had to worry about gover _ental, church, or societal disapproval, _nsorship, or punishm

12、ent. D After all, physics can give us insights into metaphysics, sin _ both seek different ways to do the same thing; psychology, sociology, anthropology, and archeology can give us insights into epistemology; various “soft” scien _s dealing with parative cultures can provide food for thought in eth

13、nics, and so on. E Although some philosophical people are not ne _ssarily considered as philosophers today，whose work was influential and instrumental in developing one of the social scien _s ( psychology, sociology, political scien _, education) or in advancing theoretical scien _ (what is now call

14、ed philosophy of scien _). F And so, it seems to me, the best way that a philosopher can keep from being dated is to be aware of scientific knowledge, and integrate it into philosophy. Of course, this ne _ssitates an independent evaluation of the merits and drawbacks of a given scientific idea, whic

15、h ne _ssitates, in turn, a thorough knowledge of that theory. G And so, it seems to me that, in order for a philosopher to be relevant for the future as well as the present, he must take into aount all of the objections to his philosophy which can be anticipated at the present time.

17、n ANSWER SHEET 1. (10 points) A Is that what the American viewing public is getting? Perhaps 10% of primetime work programming is a happy bination of entertai _ent and enrichment. There used to be television movies rich in hu _n values, but they have now bee an endangered species. I find television

18、too much con _rned with what people have and too little con _rned with who they are, very con _rned with taking care of No. 1 and not at all con _rned with sharing themselves with other people. All too often it _s us the half truth we want to hear rather than the whole truth we need to hear. B Why i

19、s television not more fully realizing its hu _nizing potential? Is the creative munity at fault? Partially. But not pri _rily. I have lived and worked in that munity for 32 years, as both priest and produ _r. As a group, these people have values. In fact, in Hollywood in re _nt months, au _n _ enric

20、hment has bee the in thing. A coalition of media panies has endowed the Hu _nitas Prize so that it can recognize and _lebrate those who aomplish it. C Every good story will not only captivate its viewers but also give them some insight into what it means to be a hu _n being. By so doing, it can help

21、 them grow into the deeply _ntered, sovereignly free, joyously loving hu _n being God _de them to be. Meaning, _ and lovethe supreme hu _n values. And this is the kind of hu _n enrichment the American viewing public has a right to expect from those who _ke its entertai _ent. D The problem with Ameri

22、can TV is not the lack of story _ers of conscien _ but the mercial system within which they have to operate. Television in the U.S. is a business. In the past, the business side has been balan _d by a mitment to public servi _. But in re _nt years the fragmentation of the _ss au _n _, huge interest

23、payments and skyrocketing production costs have bined with the FCCs abdication of its responsibility to protect the mon good to produ _ an almost total preoupation with the bottom line. The works are struggling to survive. And that, the statistics seem to indicate, is mindless, heartless, escapist f

24、are. If we are dissatisfied with the moral content of what we are invited to watch, I think we should begin by examining our own conscien _s. When we tune in, are we ready to plunge into reality, so as to extract its meaning, or are we hoping to escape into a sedated world of illusion? And if church

25、 leaders want to elevate the quality of the countrys entertai _ent, they should forget about _s, production codes and _nsorship. They should work at educating their people in media literacy and at mobilizing them to support quality shows in huge numbers. E It is not a question of entertai _ent or en

26、richment. These are plementary con _rns and presuppose each other. The story that entertains without enriching is superficial and escapist. The story that enriches without entertaining is simply dull. The story that does both is a delight. F That is the only sure way to improve the moral content of

27、Americas entertai _ent. G Despite questions of the motivation behind them, the attacks by the President and the Vi _ President on the moral content of television entertai _ent have found an echo in the chambers of the American soul. Many who reject the messengers still aept the message. They do not

28、like the moral tone of American TV. In our society only the hu _n family surpasses television in its capacity to municate values, provide role models, form conscien _s and motivate hu _n behavior. Few educator, church leaders or politicians possess the moral influen _ of those who create the nations

30、r answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. (10 points) When Nick A. Corcodilos started out in the headhunting business 20 years ago, he had a keen eye for tracking talent. From his base in Silicon Valley he would send all-star performers to blue-chip panies like Xerox, IBM and General Electric. But while he would

31、 sueed in his part of the hunt, the job-seekers he located would often fail in theirs. They were striking out before, during or after the interview. So instead of simply aounting for talent, Corcodilos began advising job candidates as well. He helped improve their suess ratio by teaching them to pur

32、sue fewer panies, _ke the right contacts and deliver what panies are looking for in an interview. In his myth-busting book, Ask the Headhunter (Plume, 1997), Corcodilos has reinvented the rules of the job search, from preparation to interview techniques. Here are his six new principles for suessful

33、job hunting: (41) Your resume is meaningless. Headhunters know a resume rarely gets you inside a pany. All it does is outline your past-largely irrelevant sin _ it doesnt demonstrate that you can do the work the hiring _nager needs done. (42) Dont get lost in HR. Headhunters try to get around the hu

34、 _nresour _s department whenever possible. (43) The real _tch _ takes pla _ before the interview. A headhunter sends a candidate into an interview only if he or she is clearly qualified for the position. In your own job hunt, _ke the same effort to ensure a good fit. Know the parameters of the job w

35、hen you walk into the interview. Research the pany, finding out about its culture, goals, pe _s. Remember, the employer wants to hire you. “A pany holds interviews so it can find the best person for the job,” Corcodilos says. The _nager will be ecstatic if that person turns out to be youbecause then

36、 he or she can stop interviewing and get back to work. (44) Pretend the interview is your first day at work. Most people treat an interview as if it were an interrogation. The employer asks questions, and the candidate gives answers. Headhunters go out of their way to avoid that s _nario. (45) Got a

37、n offer? Interview the pany. When an employer _kes an offer, he does more than deliver a title and a pensation packagehe also _des part of his control over the hiring pro _ss. On _ you get that offer, “You have the power,” says Corcodilos, to decide whether, and on what terms, you want to hire that

38、pany. A Consider how Corcodilos coached Gerry Zagorski of Edison, N.J., who was pursuing an opening at AT & T. Zagorski walked over to the vi _ presidents _rker board and outlined the panys challenges and the steps he would take to increase its profits. Fifteen minutes later, as Zagorski wrote down

39、his esti _te of what he would add to the bottom line, he looked up at his interviewer. B One of the best ways to learn about a pany is to talk to people who work there. Kenton Green of Ann Arbor, Mich., used this technique while pleting a doctoral program in electrical engineering and optics at the

40、University of Rochester: “I would find an article published by someone in my field who worked at a pany I was interested in. Then Id call that person and ask to talk, mention my employability and discuss the panys needs. One of two things happened: Id either get an interview or learn we werent a goo

41、d _tch after all.” C “Most HR departments create an infrastructure that pri _rily involves pro _ssing paper,” Corcodilos says. “They package, organize, file and sort you. Then, if you havent gotten lost in the shuffle, they might pass you on to a _nager who actually knows what the work is all about.

42、 While the typical candidate is waiting to be interviewed by HR, the headhunter is on the phone, using a back channel to get to the hiring _nager.” D “At the outset of the interview, the employer controls the offer and the power that es with it,” Corcodilos says. “But upon _ an offer, he transfers t

43、hat power to the candidate. This is a power few people in that situation realize they have. Its the time for you to explore changing the offer to suit your goals and fully interview the pany.” E “The guys jaw was on the floor,” Corcodilos says. “He told Zagorski that finishing the interview wouldnt

44、be ne _ssary. Instead, the VP brought in the rest of his team, and the meeting lasted for two hours.” F “A resume leaves it up to employers to figure out how you can help their organization,” Corcodilos says. “Thats no way to sell yourself.” Sample Four Directions:You are going to read a list of hea

46、Passion for personal and familial archival collection. B Re _ption of a hospital delivery bill. C Overabundan _ of trivial personal documents. D Explosion of public documents. E It is imperative to put archival policies into perspective. F What tactics should be adopted in document-saving? One morni

47、ng a few years ago an envelope arrived from my parents containing the bill from New RochelleHospital for my delivery, in 1952. The contents of a basement or attic were being culled, and the bill had turned up in one of the _ny cardboard reliquaries that have long lent a kind of ballast to my childho

48、od home. The hospitals total charge for a five-day stay including drugs and phone calls, came to $187.86. I was a _zed at the cost, to be sure. But I was also struck by something else: that among all those decades worth of family documents my parents had looked through, the delivery bill was the onl

49、y thing they thought of sufficient interest to pass along. 41 At some point most of us realize that having a personal archival strategy is an inescapable aspect of modern life: one has to draw the line somewhere. What should the policy be toward childrens drawings and report cards? Toward personal l

50、etters and _gazine clippings? People work out answers to such questions, usually erring, I suspect, on the side of overarual of rubbish documents. Almost everyone seems to save or “curate,” as archaeologist says issues of National Geographic. That is why in garbage landfills copies of that _gazine a

51、re rarely found in isolation; rather, they are found in herds, when an entire collection has been discarded after an owner has _d or moved. 42 I happen to be an admirer of the archiving impulse and an inveterate archivist at the household level. Though not quite one of those people whom public-healt

52、h authorities seem to run across every few years, with a house in which neatly bundled stacks of newspaper oupy all but narrow aisles, I do tend to save almost everything that is personal and familial, and even to supplement this private hoard with oddities of a more public nature a calling card of Tho _s Nasts, for instan _, and Kim Philby copy of the Joy of Cooking. 43 I cannot help wondering, though, whether as a nation we are piling archives at a rate that will ex _ed anyones ability ever
