The question of whether our government should promote science and technology or the liberal arts in higher
education isn’t an either / or one, although the current emphasis on preparing young Americans for STEM (science,
technology, engineering, maths)-related fields can make it seem that way.
The latest congressional report acknowledges the critical importance of technical training, but also insists
that the study of the humanities and social sciences must remain central elements of America’s educational
system at all levels. Both areas are the key to producing citizens who can participate effectively in our democratic
society, become innovative leaders, and benefit from the spiritual enrichment that the reflection on the great
ideas of mankind over time provides.
Parents and students who have invested heavily in higher education worry about graduates’ job prospects as
technological advances and changes in domestic and global markets transform professions in ways that reduce
wages and cut jobs. Under these circumstances, it’s natural to look for what may appear to be the most “practical”
way out of the problem; “major in a subject designed to get you a job” seems the obvious answer to some, though
this ignores the fact that many disciplines in the humanities characterized as “soft” often, in fact, lead to
employment and success in the long run. Indeed, according to surveys, employers have expressed a preference for
students who have received a broadly-based education that has taught them to write well, think critically, research
creatively, and communicate easily.
Moreover, students should be prepared not just for their first job, but for their 4th and 5th jobs, as there’s
little reason to doubt that people entering the workforce today will be called upon to play many different roles
over the course of their careers. The ones who will do the best in this new environment will be those whose
educations have prepared them to be flexible. The ability to take advantage of every available tool and
insight—picked up from science, arts, and technology—to solve the problems of the future, and seize the
opportunities, will be helpful to them and the nation.
1. What does the latest congressional report suggest?
A. STEM-related subjects help students find jobs in the information society.
B. The humanities and STEM subjects should be given equal importance. C. The liberal arts in higher education help enrich students’ spiritual life.
D. Higher education should be adjusted to the practical needs of society.
2. What is the main concern of students when they choose a major?
A. Their interest in relevant subjects. B. The academic value of the courses.
C. The quality of education to receive. D. Their chances of getting a good job.
3. What does the author say about the so called “soft” subjects?
A. They benefit students in their future life. B. They broaden students’ range of interests.
C. They just improve students’ communication skills. D. They are essential to students’ healthy
growth.
B
If you believe in thermometers (温度计), you should believe in global warming. And if you believe in eating
French fries with your hamburger, you should worry more about carbonemission.
It won't happen overnight, but as the planet’s climate changes, the growth cycles of main crops will all be
heavily affected. Here are three of the crops that might not beat the heat.
The potato actually needs a great deal of beauty rest to develop properly. “They need a cool nighttime
temperature in order to start growing the tuber, the part that we eat,” Nelson says.
Temperature and altitude are two primary concerns in coffee growth, and farmers are stuck between a rock
and a hard place. “We know that coffee grows in a certain temperature range,” Nelson says. “They've been moving
up the mountains, but at some point you run out of mountains to move up.” Higher-grade strains of Arabica coffee
in Central American regions are at particular risk due to the need for lower growing temperature, especially since
diseases and pests are also becoming more of a factor as temperatures rise.
Even if you're looking at the direct effects of temperature alone, rice is in trouble. “As nighttime temperatures
go up, the rice is going to have a problem flowering and won't make as many seeds,” Nelson says. In addition to
this direct heat consequence, rising sea levels will flood many rice paddies and destroy water salinity levels, while
