【文章內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介】 hot for any human to call it home. On this planet at least, man is nothing more than a memoryif there is anything left to remember the wise man. But what about our wisdomwill any of it survive us? The conventional answer is no. Knowledge requires a knower, and there will be no knowing minds around then. But if information survives, perhaps in books or hard drives, maybe the knowledge isn39。t quite dead but dormant(休眠), ready to bee alive with the help of other minds that develop over time or e to visit Earth in the distant future. At first sight, that seems to be reasonable: after all, we have done similar things with past knowledge. For example, we saved an ancient puter from a ship destroyed at sea off the southern coast of Greece, and succeeded in finding the meaning of Egyptian hieroglyphics(象形文字). Careful work can bring previously lost wisdom back to life. However, the key point is that there is a certain cultural continuity with those ancient times that allows us to reason and make progress in the dark: we know we are dealing with the legacy(遺產(chǎn))of other humans. Without that link, the survival of objects and raw data doesn39。t guarantee the survival of knowledge. And a lack of continuity in language with any future intelligence would be a barrier. Knowledge is closely connected with language. When a language dies out, we can lose systems of reasoning that they contain. If that39。s lost, then it can39。t be recovered. All this means that other minds might not be able to fully make human knowledge alive when we are gone. It is better to concentrate on not dying out in the first place.（1）How many opinions are mentioned in ?

But if information survives, perhaps in books or hard drives, maybe the knowledge isn39。t quite dead but dormant(休眠), ready to bee alive with the help of other minds that develop over time or e to visit Earth in the distant ，在第二段中提出了兩種建議，故答案為B(2)詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)第三段中第二、三句For example, we saved an ancient puter from a ship destroyed at sea off the southern coast of Greece, and succeeded in finding the meaning of Egyptian hieroglyphics(象形文字). Careful work can bring previously lost wisdom back to ，細(xì)心的工作可以將以前失去的智慧帶回生活。由此推知，上句At first sight, that seems to be reasonable: after all, we have done similar things with past ，讓失去的智慧活躍起來(lái)。故選A。(3)細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段第一句However, the key point is that there is a certain cultural continuity with those ancient times that allows us to reason and make progress in the dark: we know we are dealing with the legacy(遺產(chǎn))of other ，我們有一定的文化延續(xù)性能使知識(shí)幸存。故選C。(4)主旨大意題。根據(jù)第一段The year 3700, Earth is far too hot for any human to call it home. On this planet at least, man is nothing more than a memoryif there is anything left to remember the wise man. But what about our wisdomwill any of it survive us?可知，本文講述的是，我們的智慧將會(huì)幸存嗎？根據(jù)句意可知答案為B【點(diǎn)評(píng)】考查閱讀理解，涉及推理判斷、猜測(cè)詞義、細(xì)節(jié)理解、主旨大意題。閱讀時(shí)要注意作者說(shuō)明事物采用的是什么方式。例如：舉例、分類還是對(duì)比。無(wú)論采用什么方法，作者都是為了說(shuō)明事物的本質(zhì)特征，清晰地展現(xiàn)說(shuō)明的事物。理清了脈絡(luò)，就能理解文章，抓住原文中的信息點(diǎn)，并且和選項(xiàng)進(jìn)行同意轉(zhuǎn)換。5．閱讀理解 Visitors must present all carried items for inspection upon entry.
