3、alf. If the tradition of ambition is to have vitality, it must be widely shared; and it especially must be highly regarded by people who are themselves admired, the educated not least among them. In an odd way, however, it is the educated who have claimed to have given up on ambition as an ideal. Wh
4、at is odd is that they have perhaps most benefited from ambition - if not always their own then that of their parents and grandparents.

Summer homes, European travel, BMWs - the locations, place names and name brands may change, but such items do not seem less in demand today than a decade or two years ago. What has happened is that people cannot confess fully
6、 to their dreams, as easily and openly as once they could, lest they be thought pushing, acquisitive and vulgar. Instead, we are treated to fine hypocritical spectacles, which now more than ever seem in ample supply; the critic of American materialism with a Southampton summer home; the publisher of
7、 radical books who takes his meal in three-star restaurants; the journalist advocating participatory democracy in all phases of life, whose own children are enrolled in private schools. For such people and many more perhaps not so exceptional, the proper formulation is, “Succeed at all costs but avo
8、id appearing ambitious.”The attacks on ambition are many and come from various angles; its public defenders are few and unimpressive, where they are not extremely unattractive. As a result, the support for ambition as a healthy impulse, a quality to be admired and fixed in the mind of the young, is
9、probably lower than it has ever been in the United States. This does not mean that ambition is at an end, that people no longer feel its stirrings and promptings, but only that, no longer openly honored, it is less openly professed. Consequences follow from this, of course, some of which are that am
10、bition is driven underground, or made sly. Such, then, is the way things stand: on the left angry critics, on the right stupid supporters, and in the middle, as usual, the majority of earnest people trying to get on in life.1. It is generally believed that ambition may be well regarded if （ ）_.2. Th

14、sily and momentarilyD.verbally and spiritually【答案】第1题:A第2题:C第3题:D第4题:B【解析】1.细节理解题。根据文章第一段，“If ambition is to be well regarded, the rewards of ambition health, distinction, control over ones destiny - must be deemed worthy of the sacrifices made on ambitions behalf.”，可知如果要正确看待雄心壮志，那么它所带来的健康、名望和对自己命运所
15、带来的回报，就必须被认为是值得曾经的付出的。可判断出抱负只有在回报很好地补偿了付出的时候，才得以正确看待。选项A符合题意。2.推断题。根据文章第一段，“There is heavy note of hypocrisy in this, a case of closing the bam door after the horses have escaped - with the educated themselves riding on them.”，可知作者打了个比方，这种做法带有浓重的虚伪色彩，就像在马儿逃跑后关上门，而受过良好教育的人却偷偷将马骑出去。用来比喻在实现抱负之后却否认隐藏自己的雄心壮志。选项C符合题意。3.细节理解题。根据文章第二段，“What has happened is that people cannot confess fully to their dreams, as easily and openly as once they could, lest they be thought pushing, acquisitive and vulgar.”，可知现在的情况是，人们不能像以前那样轻易、公开地承认自己的梦想，以免被认为是将近的、贪婪的和庸俗的。可判断出有些人不公开承认他们有野心，是因为他们不想显得贪婪和可鄙。选项D符合题意。4.推断题。
