1.
We live in an era of specialization. To really succeed it is necessary to be an expert in one particular field. That leaves little chance for someone to become a well-rounded person. And a person who has good ability in several areas without being exceptional in any has little chance of real success. For the most part the Renaissance (文艺复兴) Man is not to be found in our modern world. We are all poorer for it.
There was a time when a well-rounded person was most highly respected. He was looked up to and admired as a complete man. Leonardo da Vinci was such a man. A painter, a poet, a sculptor(雕塑家) he also gave us such basic concepts of our modern life as the helicopter. Of course he was an exceptionally brilliant man— a true genius. But he is only one representative of his era. There were lots of other men very similar to him in attitude if not in talent. Such a man was truly human.
Unfortunately the situation is different today. It’s not much that we no longer respect such a man. That kind of man simply has too hard a time surviving in our competitive world. Even a specialist like Nixon cannot survive. One of the few Renaissance Men we hear about today is John Galbraith. He may not be a Kennedy or a Kissinger, but only because he excels(胜过他人) them. Here is someone for the man-in-the-street to look up to.
1). Why are there so few Renaissance Men today??( C )
A.
Because nobody has enough ability.
B.
Everyone is too specialized.
C.
Simply because they are no longer respected.
D.
Nobody wants to be one.
