through formal education that a culture tries to perpetuate the ideas
it favors and discredit the ideas it fears." ------------------------------
11. "The purpose of education should be to provide students with
a value system, a standard, a set of ideas--not to prepare them for
a specific job." ------------------------------
19. "Scholars and researchers
should not be concerned with whether their work makes a contribution
to the larger society. It is more important that they pursue their
individual interests, however unusual or idiosyncratic those interests
may seem." ------------------------------ 21.
"Facts are stubborn things. They cannot be altered by our wishes,
our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions." ------------------------------
39. "The concept of individual
responsibility is a necessary fiction. Although societies must hold
individuals accountable for their own actions, people s behavior is
largely determined by forces not of their own making." ------------------------------
64. "There are two types
of laws: just and unjust. Every individual in a society has a responsibility
to obey just laws and, even more importantly, to disobey and resist
unjust laws." ------------------------------
65. "To be an effective
leader, a public official must maintain the highest ethical and moral
standards." ------------------------------
73. "Humanity has made
little real progress over the past century or so. Technological innovations
have taken place, but the overall condition of humanity is no better.
War, violence, and poverty are still with us. Technology cannot change
the condition of humanity." ------------------------------
83. "High-speed electronic
communications media, such as electronic mail and television, tend
to prevent meaningful and thoughtful communication." ------------------------------
91. "The well-being of
a society is enhanced when many of its people question authority."
------------------------------
93. "The only responsibility
of corporate executives, provided they stay within the law, is to
make as much money as possible for their companies." ------------------------------
104. "The study of history
places too much emphasis on individuals. The most significant events
and trends in history were made possible not by the famous few, but
by groups of people whose identities have long been forgotten."
------------------------------
114. "As long as people
in a society are hungry or out of work or lack the basic skills needed
to survive, the use of public resources to support the arts is inappropriate--and,
perhaps, even cruel--when one considers all the potential uses of
such money." ------------------------------
117. "Rituals and ceremonies
help define a culture. Without them, societies or groups of people
have a diminished sense of who they are." ------------------------------
125. "The material progress
and well-being of one country are necessarily connected to the material
progress and well-being of all other countries." 七月新增 《孙远gre写作》七月新增pool:4
7 8 20 21 23 28 33 35 37 42 49 56 62 64 68 81 82 91 94 98 99 102 110
117 4. "Academic disciplines
have become so specialized in recent years that scholars ideas reach
only a narrow audience. Until scholars can reach a wider audience,
their ideas will have little use." ------------------------------
7. "The stability of a
society depends on how it responds to the extremes of human behavior."
------------------------------
8. "Education will be truly
effective only when it is specifically designed to meet the individual
needs and interests of each student." ------------------------------
20. "The widespread idea
that people should make self-improvement a primary goal in their lives
is problematic because it assumes that people are intrinsically deficient."
------------------------------
21. "To truly understand
your own culture-no matter how you define it- requires personal knowledge
of at least one other culture, one that is distinctly different from
your own." ------------------------------
23. "People have been so
encouraged by society to focus on apparent differences that they fail
to see meaningful similarities among ideas, individuals, and groups."
------------------------------
28. "In any profession-business,
politics, education, government-those in power should step down after
five years. The surest path to success for any enterprise is revitalization
through new leadership." ------------------------------
33. "The people who make
important contributions to society are generally not those who develop
their own new ideas, but those who are most gifted at perceiving and
coordinating the talents and skills of others." ------------------------------
35. "People today are too
individualistic. Instead of pursuing self- centered, separate goals,
people need to understand that satisfaction comes from working for
the greater good of the family, the community, or society as a whole."
------------------------------
37. "Major policy decisions
should always be left to politicians and other government experts,
who are more informed and thus have better judgment and perspective
than do members of the general public." ------------------------------
42. "In any field of endeavor,
it is impossible to make a significant contribution without first
being strongly influenced by past achievements within that field."
------------------------------
49. "Most people think
that their deeply held values are the result of rational choice, but
reason often has little to do with the way people form values."
------------------------------
56. "The true strength
of a country is best demonstrated by the willingness of its government
to tolerate challenges from it s own citizens." ------------------------------
62. "It is possible to
identify a person s politics within a very short time of meeting him
or her. Everything about people-their clothes, their friends, the
way they talk, what they eat-reflects their political beliefs."
------------------------------
64. "The past is no predictor
of the future." ------------------------------
68. "The problems of modern
society have led many people to complain: We live in terrible times.
Yet, given the choice, no one today would prefer to live in any other
time." ------------------------------
81. "Important truths begin
as outrageous, or at least uncomfortable, attacks upon the accepted
wisdom of the time." ------------------------------
82. "It is possible to
pass laws that control or place limits on people s behavior, but legislation
cannot reform human nature. Laws cannot change what is in people s
hearts and minds." ------------------------------
91. "Truly innovative ideas
do not arise from groups of people, but from individuals. When groups
try to be creative, the members force each other to compromise and,
as a result, creative ideas tend to be weakened and made more conventional.
Most original ideas arise from individuals working alone." ------------------------------ 94.
"We learn through direct experience; to accept a theory without
experiencing it is to learn nothing at all." ------------------------------
98. "Too much emphasis
has been placed on the need for students to challenge the assertions
of others so that they can learn to criticize the views of others.
In fact, the ability to compromise and work with others- that is,
the ability to achieve social harmony-should be a major goal in every
school." ------------------------------
99. "The bombardment of
visual images in contemporary society has the effect of making people
less able to focus clearly and extensively on a single issue over
a long period of time." ------------------------------
102. "Now that computer
technology has made possible the rapid accessing of large amounts
of factual information, people are less likely than ever to think
deeply or originally. They feel unable to compete with-much less contribute
to-the quantity of information that is now available electronically."
------------------------------
110. "The purpose of education
should be to create an academic environment that is separate from
the outside world. This kind of environment is ideal because it allows
students to focus on important ideas without being held back by practical
concerns." ------------------------------
117. "Most societies do
not take their greatest thinkers seriously, even when they claim to
admire them." 《孙远gre写作》十月新增pool:2

"If a society is to thrive, it must put its own overall success
before the well-being of its individual citizens." ------------------------------
5. "Many people believe
that a few individuals or small groups (family, friends, teachers,
celebrities, for example) have caused them to think and behave in
the way they do. Yet it is always society as a whole that defines
us and our attitudes, not a few individuals." ------------------------------
7. "People in positions
of power are most effective when they exercise caution and restraint
in the use of that power." ------------------------------
11. "No matter what the
situation, it is more harmful to compromise one s beliefs than to
adhere to them." ------------------------------
16. "Government officials
should rely on their own judgment rather than unquestioningly carrying
out the will of the people whom they serve." ------------------------------
17. "We owe almost all
our knowledge not to people who have agreed, but to people who have
disagreed." ------------------------------
18. "The university community
consists of three different worlds-the sciences, the humanities, and
the social sciences. Because each world operates on its own assumptions
and has its own special habits of thinking, rarely is there meaningful
interaction among the sciences, the humanities, and the social sciences."
------------------------------
19. "Every new generation
needs to redefine right and wrong in its own terms and according to
the conditions of its own time." ------------------------------
26. "Most people prefer
restrictions and regulations to absolute freedom of choice, although
they would probably deny such a preference." ------------------------------
27. "Conformity almost
always leads to a deadening of individual creativity and energy."
