Take medicine,for example.The main textbook for doctors had been written by a Greek doctor called Galen more than a thousand years earlier.But when Roger Bacon,a thirteenth-century priest(牧师),said that a new approach to medicine was needed—doctors should do their own original research instead of reading writers from the past such as Galen—the Church put him in prison.
By the time of the fourteenth century,however,some parts of the Christian Church were becoming less strict about their ideas and there was a new state of mind among artists,doctors and scientists.People wanted to find out more about the world by studying it.This attitude of investigation had been common in classical scholars,and it was ‘reborn’ during the Renaissance.
【语篇导读】本文是说明文。“文艺复兴”一词来源于法语,意为“重生”,那么在文艺复兴时期重生的是什么呢?本文给出了答案。
1.We know from the text that scientists at the time of the Roman Empire believed in .
A.their companions’ observations
B.what they saw with their own eyes
C.what they learned from the Greeks
D.the most advanced theories at that time
答案:B
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的“skilled observers”及“They wrote down their ideas about what they saw,and based their theories about the world on their observations.”可知,罗马帝国时期的科学家们善于观察,他们相信自己看到的,并基于自己的观察建立理论。
