　　阅读下列短文, 从所给的四个选项中, 选出最佳答案。

　　 Albert Einstein once attributed (把...归因于) the creativity of a　　 famous scientist to the fact that he "never went to school, and　　 therefore preserved (保护) the rare gift of thinking freely." There is　　 undoubtedly truth in Einstein's observation: many artists and geniuses　　 (天才) seem to view their schooling as a disadvantage (不利). But such　　 a truth is not a criticism of schools. It is the function of schools　　 to civilize, not to train explorers. The explorer is always a lonely　　 individual whether his or her pioneering is in art, music, science, or　　 technology. The creative explorer of unmapped lands shares with the　　 genius what William James described as the "faculty of perceiving in　　 an unhabitual way." In so far as schools teach perceptual (感性的)　　 patterns they tend to destroy creativity and genius. But if schools　　 could somewhat exist solely (单独地) to cultivate (培养) genius, then　　 society would break down. For the social order demands unity and　　 widespread agreement, both traits (特性) that are destructive to　　 creativity. There will always be conflict between the demands of　　 society and the impulses (动力) of creativity and genius.
