place to live in, and it will keep on getting better both for humans and for nature."
Ridley calls himself a rational optimist-rational, because he's carefully weighed the evidence; optimistic,
because that evidence shows human progress to be both unavoidable and good. And this is what he's set out
to prove from a unique point of view in his most recent book, The Rational Optimist. He views mankind as a
grand enterprise that, on the whole, has done little but progress for 100,000 years. He backs his findings with
hard facts gathered through years of research.
Here's how he explains his views.
1) Shopping fuels invention
It is reported that there are more than ten billion different products for sale in London alone. Even allowing
for the many people who still live in poverty, our own generation has access to more nutritious food, more
convenient transport, bigger houses, better cars, and of course, more pounds and dollars than any who lived
before us. This will continue as long as we use these things to make other things. The more we specialize and
exchange, the better off we'll be.
2) Brilliant advances
One reason we are richer, healthier, taller, cleverer, longer-lived and freer than ever before is that the four
most basic human needs-food, clothing, fuel and shelter-have grown a lot cheaper. Take one example. In
1800 a candle providing one hour's light cost six hours' work. In the 1880s the same light from an oil lamp
took 15 minutes' work to pay for. In 1950 it was eight seconds. Today it's half second.
3) Let's not kill ourselves for climate change
Mitigating (减轻) climate change could prove just as damaging to human welfare as climate change itself.
A child that dies from indoor smoke in a village, where the use of fossil-fuel (化石燃料) electricity is forbidden
by well-meaning members of green political movements trying to save the world, is just as great a tragedy as
a child that dies in a flood caused by climate change. If climate change proves to be mild, but cutting carbon
causes real pain, we may well find that we have stopped a nose-bleed by putting a tourniquet (止血带) around
our necks.
B. Concern about climate change.
C. Importance of practical thinking.
D. Optimism about human progress.
B. It results in shortage of goods.
C. It demands more fossil fuels.
D. It causes a poverty problem.
B. shortening working time brings about a happier life
C. advanced technology helps to produce better candles
D. increased production rate leads to lower cost of goods
B. Overreaction to climate change may be dangerous.
C. People's health is closely related to climate change.
D. Careless medical treatment may cause great pain.
I was dirty smelly hungry and some somewhere beneath all that, suntanned(皮肤晒黑).It was the end of an Inter-Rail holiday.My body couldn’t take any more punishment. My mind couldn't deal with any more foreign timetables, currencies or languages.
"Never again," I said, as I stepped onto home ground.I said exactly the same thing the following year.And the next, all I had to do was buy one train ticket and, because I was under twenty―five years old,I could spend a whole month going anywhere I wanted in Europe. Ordinary beds are never the same once you've learnt to sleep, in the passage of a train, the rhythm rocking you into a deep sleep.
Carrying all your possessions on your back in a tucksack(背包) makes you have a vefy basic approach to travel,and encourages incredible wastefulness that can lead to burning socks that have become too anti-social(不合群的),and getting rid of books when finished.On the other hand,this way of looking at life is entirely in the spirit of Inter―Rail,for common sense and reasoning can be thrown out of the window along with the paperback book and the socks.All it takes to achieve this carefree attitude is one of those tickets in your hand.
Any system that enables young people to travef through countries at a rate of more than one a day must be pretty social on that first trip,my friehds mad I were at first unaware of the possibilities of this type of train ticket,thinking it was just an inexpensive way of getting to and from our chosen camp-site in southern France.But the idea of non-stop travel proved too attractive,for there was always just one more country over the border,always that little bit further to go.And what did the extra miles cost us? Nothing.
We were not completely uninterested in culture.But this was a first holiday without parents,as it was for most other Inter-Railers,and in organizing our own timetable we left out everything except the most available sights.This was the chance to escape the guided tour,an opportunity to do something different.I took great pride in the fact that.in many places,all I could be bothered to see was the view from the station.We were just there to get by,and to have good time doing so.In this we were not different from most of the other Inter-Raiders with whom we shared passage floors,food and water,money and music.
The excitement of travel comes from the sudden reality of somewhere that was previously just a name.It is as if the city in which you arrive never actually existed until the train pulls in at the station and you are able to see it with your own tired eyes for the first time.
71.At the end of his first trip, the writer said“Never again”because
A.He fell ill
B.he disliked trains
C.he was tired from the journey
D.he had lost money
72.What does the writer mean by“this way of looking at life’’in Paragraph 37
A.Worrying about your clothes
B.Throwing unwanted things away
C.Behaving in an anti-social way
D.Looking after your possessions
73.Why did the writer originally buy an Inter―Rail ticket?
A.To get to one place cheaply.
B.To meet other young people.
C.To see a lot of famous places
D.To go on a tour of Europe.
74.What the writer liked about traveling without his parents was that
A.he could see more interesting places
B.he could spend more time sightseeing
C.he could stay away from home longer
D.he could make his own decisions
75.What does the underlined word“it”in the last sentence of Paragraph 6 refer to?
A.A name.
C.The train.
B.The city.
D.The station.
