听力原文： A study published in September suggests there is a surprising way to get people to avoid unhealthy foods: change their memories. Scientist Elizabeth Loftus of the University of California at Irvine asked volunteers to answer some questions on their personalities and food experiences. "One week later," Loftus says, "we told those people we'd fed their answers into our smart computer and it came up with an account of their early childhood experiences." Some accounts included one key additional detail. "You got sick after eating strawberry ice-cream." The researchers then changed this detail into a manufactured memory through leading questions—Who were you with？ How did you feel？ By the end of the study, up to 41% of those given a false memory believed strawberry ice-cream once made them sick, and many said they'd avoid eating it.
When Loftus published her findings, she started getting calls from people begging her to make them remember hating chocolate or French fries. Unfortunately, it's not that easy. False memories appear to work only for foods you don't cat on a regular basis. But most important, it is likely that false memories can be implanted only in people who are unaware of the mental control. And lying to a patient is immoral, even if a doctor believes it's for the patient's benefit.
Loftus says there's nothing to stop parents from trying it with their overweight children. "I say, wake up—parents have been lying about Father Christmas for years, and nobody seems to mind. If they can prevent diseases caused by fatness and all the other problems that come with that, you might think that's a more moral lie. Decide that for yourself."
(33)
A．To improve her computer program.
B．To find out their attitudes towards food.
C．To find out details she can make use of.
D．To predict what food they'll like in the future.

There are a great many reasons for studying what philosophers
have said in the past. One is that we cannot separate the
history of philosophy from which of science. Philosophy is 【M1】 ______
large discussion about matters on which few people are quite 【M2】 ______
certain, and those few hold opposite opinions. As knowledge
increases, philosophy bud off the sciences. 【M3】 ______
For an example, in the ancient world and the Middle Ages 【M4】 ______
philosophers discussed motion. Aristotle and St. Thomas
Aquinas taught that a moving body would slow down until a force 【M5】______
were constantly applied to it. They were wrong. It goes on moving
unless something slows it down. But they had good arguments on
their side, and if we study these, and the experiments
which proved them fight this will help us to distinguish troth 【M6】 ______
from false in the scientific controversies of today. 【M7】 ______
We also see how different philosopher reflects the social 【M8】 ______
life of his day. Plato and Aristotle, in the slaveowning society
of ancient Greece, thought man's highest state was contemplation
rather than activity. In the Middle Ages St. Thomas
believed a regular feudal system of nine ranks of angels. Herbert 【M9】 ______
Spencer, in the time of free competition between capitalists,
found the key to progress as the survival of the fittest. Thus 【M10】 ______
Marxism is seen to fit into its place as the philosophy for
the workers, the only class with a future.
【M1】

A scientist is apt to think that all the problems of philosophy will ultimately be solved by science. I think this is true for a great many of the questions on which philosophers still argue. For example, Plato thought that when we saw something, one ray of light came to it from the sun, and another from our eyes and that seeing was something like feeling with a stick. We now know that the light comes from the sun, and is reflected into our eyes. We don't know in much detail how the changes in our eyes give rise to sensation. But there is every reason to think that as we learn more about the physiology of the brain, we shall do so, and that the great philosophical problems about knowledge are going to be pretty fully cleared up.
But if our descendants know the answers to these questions and others that perplex us today, there will still be one field of which they do not know, namely the future. However exact our science; we cannot know it as we know the past. Philosophy may be described as argument about things of which we are ignorant. And where science gives us a hope of knowledge it is often reasonable to suspend judgment. That is one reason why Marx and Engels quite rightly wrote to many philosophical problems that interested their contemporaries.
But we have got to prepare for the future, and we cannot do so rationally without some philosophy. Some people say we have only got to do the duties revealed in the past and laid down by religion, and god will look after the future. Others say that the world is a machine and the course of future events is certain, whatever efforts we may make. Marxists say that the future depends on ourselves, even though we are part of the historical process. This philosophical view certainly does inspire people to very great achievements. Whether it is true or not, it is powerful guide to action.
We need a philosophy, then, to help us to tackle the future. Agnosticism easily becomes an excuse for laziness and conservatism. Whether we adopt Marxism or any other philosophy, we cannot understand it without knowing something of how it developed. That is why knowledge of the history of philosophy is important to Marxists, even during the present critical days.
What is the main idea of this passage？
A．The argument whether philosophy will ultimately be solved by science or not.
B．The importance of learning philosophies, especially the history of philosophy.
C．The difference between philosophy and science.
D．A discuss about how to set a proper attitude towards future.

People once thought of the languages of backward groups as savage, undeveloped forms of speech, consisted largely of grunts(咕哝) and groans. While it is possible that language in general began as a series of grunts and groans, it is a fact established by the study of "backward" languages that no spoken tongue answers the description today. Most languages of uncivilized groups are, by our most severe standards, extremely complex, delicate, and ingenious pieces of machinery for the transfer of ideas. They fall behind our western language not in their sound patterns or grammatical structure, which usually are fully adequate for all language needs, but only in their vocabularies, which reflect the objects and activities known to their speakers. Even in this department, however, two things are to be noted: 1. All languages seem to possess the machinery for vocabulary expansion, either by putting together words already in existence or by borrowing them from other languages and adapting them to their own system. 2. The objects and activities requiring names and distinctions in "backward" languages, while different from ours are often surprisingly numerous and complicated. A western language distinguished merely between two degrees of remoteness("this" and "that"); some languages of the American Indians distinguish between what is close to the speaker, or to the person addressed, or removed from both, or out of sight, or in the past, or in the future.
This study of language, in turn casts a new light upon the, claim of the anthropologists that all cultures are to be viewed independently, and without ideas of rank or hierarchy.
The statement that "every group has a culture" grows out of the author's ______.
A．bias in regard to civilized human
B．philosophy
C．feeling about human beings
D．definition of culture

To the professional anthropologist, there is no intrinsic superiority of one culture over another, just as to the professional linguist there is no intrinsic hierarchy among languages.
