Question

When a person is curious about something, it means he is interested in it and wishes to know something about it. There is1 wrong with curiosity(好奇) in itself. Whether it is good or bad 2on what people are curious about.
Curiosity3 can be foolish or wrong. Some people with nothing to do are4 of curiosity about what their neighbours are doing. They have a strong wish to know what they are 5home or taking outside, or why they have come home so 6 or late. To be interested in these things is foolish because it is none of7 business to know what their neighbours do or are doing. Such curiosity is not only foolish but also8 . For most probably, it may lead to a small talk9 often brings harm, loss of honour or disrespect to others, and thus10 their feelings.
On the other hand, there is a11 curiosity --- the curiosity of wise men, who12 at all the great things and try to find out all they13learn about them. Columbus could14 have found America if he had not been15 . James Watt would not have made the steam engine 16 his curiosity about the rising of the kettle lid(水壶盖). All the17 in human history have been made as a18 of curiosity, 19 the clever curiosity is never about unimportant things which have20 or nothing to do with the happiness of the public.
