Passage 1
Foraging near the hut that he built himself,cultivating
beans whose properties invited speculation,gazing into the
depths of Walden Pond,Henry David Thoreau epitomizes a
long-standing American worship of nature.Generations
of theachers have assigned Thoreau's book Walden(1854),
5 which recounts his experiment in living in solitary harmony
with nature,as an illustration of the intensity with which
nineteenth-century America protested the intrusion into
pastoral harmony of the forces of industrialization and
10 unbanization.In this sense,Walden is reverd as a text
of regret,a lament for a world passing out of existence.
Passage 2
Although Thoreau,in Walden,was sometimes
ambivalent about the mechanization that he saw around
him,at other times he was downright enthusiastic,as in
15 his response to the railroad:"When I hear the iron horse
make the hills echo with his snort like thunder,shaking
the earth with his feet,and brathing fire and smoke from
his nostrils,...it seems as if the earth had got a race now
worthy to inhabit it,"At Walden Pond,civilization and
20 industrialization no longer seemed threatening.Providing
a full record of Thoreau's purposeful energy,Walden
demonstrates that the power unleashed by the machine
is not that different from the power required to transform
the wilderness into a productive garden
9Q:The author in Paragraph two and the "teachers" mentioned
in Paragraph one would probably disagree regarding
which of the following about Walden?
(A)The extent to which Walden presents nature as
being threatened
(D)Whether Walden recognizes the spread of
industrialization and urbanization
标答是A,D为什么不选?
