答案
C. The value placed on learning from others
解析
本题考查对中国文化内涵的理解以及对英文句子含义的把握。解题思路是先理解题干中英文句子的意思,再分析每个选项与该句子所反映的中国文化内涵是否相符。
- 首先,理解题干中 “Is it not a pleasure to meet friends from afar?” 的意思,这句话出自《论语》,其含义是“有朋自远方来,不亦乐乎?”。
- 接着分析各个选项:
- 选项A:“The preference for isolation” 意思是偏好孤立。而“有朋自远方来”表达的是对朋友到来的欢迎,并非偏好孤立,所以该选项不符合。
- 选项B:“The emphasis on self - reliance” 强调自力更生。题干句子主要强调的是朋友相聚的喜悦,与自力更生并无直接关联,所以该选项不正确。
- 选项C:“The value placed on learning from others” 重视向他人学习。在中国文化中,朋友从远方来,大家可以交流思想、分享知识,互相学习,这与“有朋自远方来,不亦乐乎”所体现的文化内涵相符,所以该选项正确。
- 选项D:“The rejection of foreign influence” 拒绝外国影响。题干句子并没有涉及到对外国影响的态度,所以该选项不符合。
