　　The ancient Maya mastered the art of ceramic(制陶艺术) in a manner which virtually no other culture did.

　　The Vase of Seven Gods, made in the area of Naranjo, an ancient

　　city of the Maya civilization in the present­day Peten, Guatemala,

　　shows the fine way Maya handled clay. Like all of art of Maya,

　　this vase exhibits highly religious symbols. Furthermore, the artist's name is carved

　　along the bottom of this piece in the form of a small white rabbit.

　　Ceramics also served as reminder of ancestors and gods. The Flour De Lis Vase is a fine example of this. The water lilies are not only symbols of new birth and life giving qualities, but a constant reminder of purity. On this vase, the water lilies are white, which is undoubtedly a sign of purity. The black background shows the sea, in which the lilies float.

　　Furthermore, ceramics served practical functions in the Maya culture. Vases, which are quite commonly seen today, were used primarily to hold liquid chocolate and cocoa. Bowls were used to hold various maize products. Maize was seen as the imaginary body of the Maize God and the ancient Maya thought that as one ate the maize or the body of God from the bowl, they actually became God. Plates were merely used for any object.

　　Finally, Maya used depictions on ceramics to resurrect family members and honor gods. Because they believe that they would come back to life with their names spoken or their figures drawn, the carvings and paintings on these ceramics played a vital role in Maya spirituality.

　　Clearly, ceramics served a key function in ancient Maya society from dinner plates to acts of God.

　　【语篇解读】 古代玛雅人的制陶艺术非常先进。他们除了用陶器装谷物外，还把

　　陶器看作是祖先和神的象征。

　　Kong Zi, also called Confucius (551-479B.C.), and socrates (469-399 B.C.) lived only a hundred years apart, and during their lifetimes there was no contact between China and Greece, but it is interesting to look at how the world that each of these great philosophers came from shaped their ideas, and how these ideas in turn, shaped their societies.

　　Neither philosopher lived in times of peace, though there were more wars un Greece than in China. The Chinese states were very large and feudal, while the Greek city­states were small and urban. The urban environment in which Socrates lived allowed him to be more radical than Confucius. Unlike Confucius, Socrates was not asked by rules how to govern effectively. Thus, Socrates was able to be more idealistic, focusing on issues like freedom, and knowledge for its own sake. Confucius, on the other hand, advised those in government service, and many of his students went out to government service.

　　Confucius suggested the Golden Rule as a principle for the conduct of life: “Do not do to others what you would not want others to do to you.” He assumed that all men were equal at birth, though some bad more potential than others, and that it was knowledge that set men apart. Socrates focused on the inpidual, and thought that the greatest purpose of man was to seek wisdom. He believed that the superior class should rule the inferior (下层的) classes.

　　For Socrates, the family was of no importance, and the community of little concern. For Confucius, however, the family was the centre of the society, with family relations considered much more important than political relations.

　　Both men are respected much more today than they were in their lifetimes.

　　B.Confucius had much influence on Socrates' ideas.

　　C.The societies ware influenced by the philosophers'ideas.

　　D.There were cultural exchanges between China and Greece.

　　解析　细节理解题。根据第一段可知答案“孔子和苏格拉底的生活年代相隔一百年，而且在他们的有生之年中国和希腊没有任何联系，但是有趣的是，我们能看到这两位伟大的哲人所来自的世界是如何影响了他们的思想，他们的思想又如何反过来影响了他们的社会。”

　　A.all men were equal when they were born

　　B.the lower classed should be ruled by the upper class
