科學(xué)就是探求真理。在探求真理的過程中，人們對客觀規(guī)律的認(rèn)識要經(jīng)過艱苦曲折的過程。常常有這樣的情形：由于研究的角度不同，掌握資料的差異，認(rèn)識方法的不同，就會出現(xiàn)“橫看成嶺側(cè)成峰，遠(yuǎn)近高低各不同”的情況，以至引起學(xué)術(shù)上的爭論。因此，有作為的科學(xué)工作者都把反對的意見看作對自己的莫大的幫助，把對自己的批評當(dāng)作最珍貴的友誼。正如歌德所說，“我們贊同的東西使我們處之泰然，我們反對的東西才使我們的思想獲得豐產(chǎn)?！边@都是因?yàn)?，贊同的意見未必正確，反對的意見未必錯誤。退一步說，即使錯誤的反對意見，對自己的科學(xué)研究也是很有好處的。（258 words）
English Version：
Science means the exploration of truth. In the process of exploring truth， people will have to experience tremendous hardships and difficulties before they can come to understand the objective laws. It is often the case that the differences in the research perspectives， the materials mastered， and the ways of understanding would lead to totally different results—as we might say， “a mountain becomes a hill when viewed horizontally and a peak when viewed vertically， and it assumes totally different shapes when viewed from a short or a long distance， or from a high or a low position.” – and even lead to academic disputes. Therefore， an accomplished scientist would regard opposing arguments as his most tremendous benefit and take others' criticism of him as the most precious friendship that he can ever obtain. In Gothe’s words， “We take for granted what we are in favor of. However， only what we are opposed to can enrich our thoughts.” This is all because the approving opinions are not necessarily justified while the opposing arguments are not necessarily unfounded. To put it in the least way， even the opposing arguments that are mistaken will be immensely beneficial to one's own scientific research.

Passage One
原文： It should have been easy. They were battle-tested veterans with long ties to Reagan and even longer ties to the Republican party， men who understood presidential politics as well as any in the country. The backdrop of the campaign was hospitable， with lots of good news to work with： America was at peace， and the nation's economy， a key factor in any election， was rebounding vigorously after recession. Furthermore， the campaign itself was lavishly financed， with plenty of money for a top -flight staff， travel， and television commercials. And， most important， their candidate was Ronald Reagan， a president of tremendous personal popularity and dazzling communication skills. Reagan has succeed more than any president since John F. Kennedy in projecting a broad vision of America – a nation of renewed military strength， individual initiative， and smaller federal government.

這應(yīng)該不是件難事。這都是些跟著里根多年、久經(jīng)沙場的老將，他們跟共和黨則有更深厚的淵源，是這個國家里最熟悉總統(tǒng)政治的人。競選的背景也很有利，也很多好消息可供炒作。例如，美國上下一片和平，美國經(jīng)濟(jì)這一競選要素也在經(jīng)過一段時間的衰退之后開始強(qiáng)勁反彈。此外，這次競選本身得到了慷慨資助，因此有充裕的資用于組織一流的競選班子、支付巡回演講和電視廣告的費(fèi)用。而最重要的一點(diǎn)是，他們的候選人是羅納德。里根，他可是位極具個人魅力和溝通技巧的總統(tǒng)。自約翰。F.肯尼迪總統(tǒng)以來，里根是最成功地勾勒出美國藍(lán)圖的總統(tǒng)：一個軍事力量復(fù)興、富有個人進(jìn)取心、聯(lián)邦政府得以精簡的國家。
