做哲学研究，关键是面向哲学问题，提出理论去回答和解决这些问题。

中国哲学家要继续研究那些传统上仍未解决的重要学理性问题,也要直面当代社会现实生活的需要,从中提炼出相关的哲学问题,或者赋予旧问题以新形式,或者在新背景中探讨老问题,发展新的哲学理论。

歌德说得好:理论是灰色的,生活之树常青。

新探索必须从学术传统中寻求强大支撑。

即使是一位的思想者,也需要从学术传统和学术同行那里获得激励,从而加强自己思想的论证力量。

常常有这样的现象,即使是那些自称的学者,在阐述他们的思想时,也会把许多伟大的先贤和著名的同辈引为同道。

例如,当代美国哲学家布兰顿(RobertBrandom)是分析实用主义的代表性人物,创造了推理主义语义学,但他按自己的理解,大量征引解说康德、黑格尔、弗雷格、维特根斯坦、塞拉斯、罗蒂、达米特以及他的同事麦克道维尔,把他们视为自己的先驱和同道。

新探索需要学术共同体的共同参与。

俗话说,众人拾柴火焰高。

一位独立的研究者要从他的学术同行那里获得反馈,不管这种反馈是赞扬、改进、批评,还是彻底的否定,由此产生相互切磋甚至是论战,从而促进相互理解,共同进步。

但中国哲学界目前的状况是:各位学者埋头于自己的工作,对同行所发表的著述基本上不读不看,当然更不评论,实际上没有形成真正意义上的学术交流,这种情况必须改变。

可以仿效国外学术出版机构的做法:在匿名审稿过程中,凡是不征引、不讨论当代学术同行工作的相关论著,都不接受发表或出版。

循此办法,逐渐硬性地建立起真正意义上的学术共同体。

新探索需要学术共同体的共同参与。

俗话说,众人拾柴火焰高。

一位独立的研究者要从他的学术同行那里获得反馈,不管这种反馈是赞扬、改进、批评,还是彻底的否定,由此产生相互切磋甚至是论战,从而促进相互理解,共同进步。

The glacier-covered peaks in his hometown in New Zealand proved a perfect training ground for the Himalaya. It was his fourth Himalayan expedition in just over two years and he was at the peak of fitness.On May 28, 1953, Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay, an experienced Sherpa (夏尔巴人) set out and reached the South Summit by 9 a. m. next day. But after that, the ridge (山脊) slightly fell before rising suddenly in a rocky spur (尖坡) about 17 meters high just before the true summit. The formation is difficult to climb due to its extreme pitch because a mistake would be deadly. Scratching at the snow with his ax, Hillary managed to overcome this enormous obstacle, later to be known as the Hillary Step.At 11:30 a. m, the two men found themselves standing at the top of the world. “Not until we were about 50 feet of the top was I ever completely convinced that we were actually going to reach the summit.” Hillary later recounted, “Of course I was very, very pleased to be on the summit, but my first thought was a little bit of surprise. After all, this is the ambition of all mountaineers.”Emerging as the first to summit Mount Everest, Hillary Hillary continued by helping explore Antarctica, and establishing the Himalayan Trust (信托基金), through which he provided a number of beneficial services to the Himalayan peoples. He also a sizeable legacy that mountain climbers have chased ever since. As a young climber said, “It was not just Hillary and Tenzing that reached the summit of Mount Everest. It was all of humanity. Suddenly, all of us could go.”4．What made Edmund Hillary a capable climber on the 1953 expedition?A．His undisputed reputation.B．His remarkable physical condition.C．His previous training on Mount Everest.D．His exceptional ability to adapt to the cold.5．What does the Hillary Step refer to?A．A mistake Hillary avoided making.B．A steep spur of rock Hillary conquered.C．An ax Hillary used to scratch snow.D．A sudden fall of a ridge Hillary skipped. 6．What was Hillary’s initial feeling upon reaching the summit of Mount Everest?A．Overwhelming joy.B．Enormous pride.C．Complete disbelief.D．A touch of astonishment.7．What was the impact of Hillary’s achievement on mountaineering?A．It opens up possibilities for other climbers.B．It enabled him to give back to his hometown.C．It left financial benefits for climbers to pursue.D．It led to friendly regulations for mountaineering.With the availability of easy-to-use at-home kits, DNA testing for dogs has become increasingly popular among dog owners in recent years. It can provide invaluable insights into a dog’s breed, health risks, and even behaviors.DNA testing typically works by analyzing the genetic material found in a sample of cells taken from the inside of your dog’s cheek. This sample is then compared to a database of known breeds and genetic markers associated with certain traits or health conditions.The first step in obtaining a DNA test kit is selecting which type you want. Most companies offer several different types of tests that vary in cost and complexity. For instance, some tests just analyze your dog’s breed composition, while others can assess additional genetic markers associated with certain diseases or behaviors.Then it’s time to collect your dog’s sample using the provided swab (拭子) kit or saliva-collection tube included with most kits. The swab should be gently rubbed inside your pet’s cheek according to the kit’s directions before being placed into the collection container provided by the company. After collecting the sample, it should be mailed back to the laboratory for processing according to instructions given by the company providing the service. Once received by the lab, it typically takes 1-2 weeks for results to be processed and sent back via email or mail. Results will vary depending on which type of test was purchased,but they generally include detailed information about your pet’s breed composition as well as any potential health risks or behavioral traits associated with their genetics that could affect their overall well-being and quality of life.If you’re looking for an easy way to learn more about your pup’s background without spending too much money, then DNA testing might just be right up your alley.8．What is the primary purpose of DNA testing for dogs?A．To identify a dog’s personality traits.B．To reveal a dog’s future behavioral changes.C．To determine a dog’s socialization preferences.D．To obtain a dog’s breed and genetic information.9．How does DNA testing for dogs typically work?A．By analyzing the dog’s hair and fur.B．By conducting a blood test on the dog.C．By matching the dog’s DNA with a database.D．By studying the dog’s genetic health history.10．What is the correct order of having an DNA test?①get the sample processed①rub the swab gently①receive the result①select the type of test①place the swab into the container①mail the sample back to the labA．①-①-①-①-①-①B．① ①-①-①-①-①C．①-①-①-①-①-①D．①-①-①-①-①-①11．What is the text?A．A dog advertisement.B．A dog DNA experiment.C．A dog DNA testing survey.D．A dog DNA test kit promotion.In 2022, campaign group Fashion Revolution Chelsea dye garden for its Chelsea Flower Show presentation. An ancient craft, natural dyeing is a practice whose time has come again, with hand tie-dyed fashion also making a comeback in recent years.The revival has been encouraged by Covid lockdowns, “which allowed people to explore the craft at home,” says natural-dyeing enthusiast and teacher Susan Dye. It’s unlikely, though, that the practice would have caught on in quite the same way if not for a continually growing discomfort about fashion’s heavy footprint. From carbon emissions to animal cruelty,fashion is under considerable inspection. “Put it this way, 97% of dyes used in the industry are petrochemically (石油化学产品) based,” says sustainable fashion consultant Jackie Andrews, who helped advise the UN Ethical Fashion Initiative. “We’ve got net zero targets which mean we’re going to have to remove all those petrochemicals from the manufacturing cycle.”Fashion is a huge polluter. According to the UN Environment Program, the industry is responsible for up to one-fifth of all industrial water pollution — due to the fact that most clothes today are produced in poorer countries where regulation is weak and enforcement weaker still. Waste water is dumped directly into rivers and streams, poisoning the land as well as the water sources of people and animals who rely on them.It’s easy to see why someone who cares about people, planet and animals, as well as clothes, might turn to natural plant dyeing. From the beauty of the raw materials-often wild plants-to the property of only bonding with natural fiber like cotton and linen, from the minor footprint of upclycling old clothing that has grayed or faded over time to the vibrant and long-lasting dyeing results, plant dyeing feels like a quiet act of rebellion. This is why, while beginners start with simply changing their clothes’ color, new worlds open. Many of today’s natural dyers grow their own dye plants, run local community workshops, and advocate for change in industrialized fashion systems and beyond.12．What is the main reason for the growing discomfort mentioned in paragraph 2?A．The adoption of petrochemical-based dyes.B．The challenging net zero targets to be achieved.C．The fashion industry’s focus on luxurious designs.D．The disturbing consequences of the fashion industry.13．The author illustrates “Fashion is a huge polluter” by ______.A．making a comparison B．giving examplesC．listing numbers D．introducing a new topic14．What does the underlined phrase “a quiet act of rebellion” in paragraph 4 refer to?A．A protest against turning to natural fiber.B．An objection to upcycling old clothing.C．A struggle for a sustainable fashion industry.D．A resistance to vibrant colors in natural dyeing.15．What would be the most suitable title for the passage?A．The Environmental Impact of Natural DyeingB．Fashion Revolution’s Dye Garden PresentationC．The Return of Natural Dyeing with Ethical AppealD．The Petrochemical Dye Industry and Its Challenges二、七选五Some pals and I were in the midst of a pinball competition at a bar the other night when the machine kept breaking down. We called over a very busy employee who’s responsible for helping keep the place running. He put everything aside to fix our problematic pinballwas just doing the job he was paid to do. I insisted and got the group to agree to the plan, although somewhat reluctantly.My pinball wizard didn’t stretch out his hand, but how many times have we run across those payment screens that suggest a 20% tip for being handed a sandwich we ordered? 17 There is data to back up the trend: 66% of American adults have a negative view of tipping, and 32% say they’re sick of those payment-screen hints, according to a recent Bankrate survey.18 I admit there are times I suspect the tipping thing has gone too far - say, when I’m at a self-checkout line and there’s still request to leave something extra. But I’m generally willing to err on the side of caution: If someone is expecting a tip, I’ll assume they have financial reasons to do so. 19Plus, tipping is good karma (因果报应). It’s always worth it to tip in unexpected situations- ones that don’t necessarily involve a hint on a payment screen.20 He was so grateful for the $10 tip that later that night, he rewarded our group with well more than $10 in free tokens (代金券) for future play.So next time, there must be no arguments with my friends when times come to tip.A．This leads to what’s been called ”tipping fatigue (疲劳)”B．So, why am I willing to go against the trend and say yes?C．I suggested we tip him $10 and split the tip among all of us.D．There’s an argument that we should ban tipping altogether.E．Guess what happened next with my pinball-machine fixer at the bar?F．One dollar or two won’t make or break me, but it can possibly help with their rent.G．Should they earn far below the minimum wage, employers must make up the difference.三、完形填空said to me, “You’re not going to finish college. There are other things for you to do, but that’sas a child. Having my 24 taken from me, I felt entirely 25 .I worked and worked, and 26 graduated from college, which took me four years longer than others. After that, I applied to a graduate program and 27 someone, my advisor Susan to take me on, and so I 28 at Princeton. I still felt I was not supposed to be there. The night before my first-year 29 I was so afraid that I called her and said, “I’m 30 ” She said, “You’re going to stay, and this is what you’re going to do. You are going to 31 it and do every talk that you ever get asked to do, even if you’re 32 until you have this moment where you say, ‘Oh my gosh, I’m doing it. I have become this.’”So that’s what I did. I spent five years in graduate school and got my degree. Now I am a public speaker. I realized that I had not just faked it till I made it, I had faked it till 33 it. Our 34 can change our behavior, and our behavior can change our 35 . 21．A．face B．head C．back D．skin 22．A．withdraw B．graduate C．escape D．return 23．A．patient B．reserved C．gifted D．diligent 24．A．mood B．dream C．career D．identity 25．A．cheerful B．powerless C．indifferent D．optimistic 26．A．suddenly B．naturally C．eventually D．reluctantly 27．A．convinced B．reminded C．instructed D．allowed 28．A．drop out B．end up C．start over D．fall behind 29．A．exam B．interview C．reception D．talk 30．A．staying B．leaving C．quitting D．dreaming 31．A．fake B．practice C．recall D．ignore32．A．discouraged B．inspired C．enlightened D．terrified 33．A．failed B．became C．forgot D．cherished 34．A．lessons B．experience C．insight D．minds 35．A．outcomes B．beliefs C．personality D．talent四、用单词的适当形式完成短文阅读下面短文，在空白处填入 1 个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

When people adopt domesticated（家养的）animals into their families as pets,animals give humans the blessings ofcompanionship and fun in return. In the wild, animals sometimes carry out dramatic rescues of people in dangerous situations, miraculously（奇迹般地）sensing human needs and jumping in without fear to help.In 2000, a 6-year-old boy named Elian Conzalez left Cuba on a boat bound for Florida in the United States, but the boat sank and everyone aboard drowned except for Elian and two adults. Elian and the other two survivors held onto inner tuber for 48 hours to try to stay afloat in the sea. After a while, however, Elian began to lose strength, slipping under the water and then grabbing the tube again as he fought to stay alive.A small group of dolphins noticed Elian struggling and swan over to him to help. The dolphins formed a circle around the inner tube and took tums using their noses to lift Elian until fishermen working in the area discovered and rescued Elian and the two adults who floated nearby. The fishermen reported that, when they discovered Elian, he was repeating a prayer that his mother had taught him before drowning, asking guardian angels to protect him.Miraculously, the dolphins knew that a child would need more help than adults, so they focused on Elian —and they figured out exactly what needed to be done and cooperated carry out that plan successfully. They made it!24. Why did Elian slip off the tube?A. He was tired out.B. The dolphins helped him..C. The two adults pushed him .D. The tube was too smooth to grab.25. How did the dolphins save Elian Conzalez?A. They informed the fishermen.B. They formed a circle around him.C. They supported the inner tube by turns.D. They stopped Elian slipping under the water.26. Which of the following words can be used to describe Elian Gonzalez?A. Confident and strong.B. Determined and lucky.C. Friendly and optimistic.D. Adaptable and aggressive.27. Which could be the best title?A. Prayer Doing Wonder.B. Elian’s Narrow Escape.C. The Dolphins Who Rescued Elian.D. Animals: Human Being’s Angels.CDecades before the first unaccompanied child was put on a plane to grandma’s in the care of a flight attendant, a few resourceful parents accomplished the same end by simply dropping their kids in the mail.This was in the earliest days of the parcel post service, which launched in 1913. Before that, U.S. Postal Service packages were capped at four pounds, which limited the goofy things people tried to send by post.But when the parcel service began, all kinds of cargo showed up in the mail stream, including coffins, eggs, dogs and, in a few cases, human young.According to National Postal Museum historian Nancy Pope, the first known case of a mailed baby was in 1913 when Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Beauge of Glen Este, Ohio, shipped their 10-pound infant son to his grandmother’s home about a mile away,paying 15 cents in postage and springing for $50 in insurance (because they were worriers).But some children were mailed much farther, Pope said. Edna Neff of Pensacola, Fla., was 6 when she was packed off —or packaged off —to her father’s home in Christiansburg, Va., 720 miles away.The precious parcels weren’t truly parcels in the brown-paper. Instead they were more like companions in the arms of their carriers or walked along the route（路线）.But the most famous mailed child,May Pierstorff, was indeed sent by an Idaho railway mail car in 1914 with the appropriate stamps stuck to her traveling coat. May’spicture survives, but no physical evidence of her trip.“We would sure love to have t hat coat,”Pope said.In 1914, the postmaster general instituted a rule about the mail that stands to this day: no humans.But that didn’t stop an ambitious thief from crating himself up and shipping himself airmail. When William DeLucia, packed in a trunk labeled “Musical Instruments”along with food and an oxygen tank, was airborne, he climbed out, pilfered thousands of dollars’worth of goods from the registered mail and sealed himself back up. He was arrested at the Atlanta airport in 1980 after his trunk popped open as it was being unloaded.“We have his oxygen tank”at the Postal Museum, Pope noted with pride.28.
