阅读下列材料,回答问题:

材料一

材料二欧洲文艺复兴的策源地在意大利,宗教改革的故乡在德国,启蒙运动的中心在法国,决非偶然,它们显然是由各自深刻而特定的社会历史条件所决定的。

——摘自董小燕《西方文明:精神与制度的变迁》

材料三意大利人文主义者阿尔贝蒂认为,财富的日益增长是家庭幸福生活的重要组成部分,一个家庭应当修建和装饰自己的房子,拥有珍贵的书籍和健壮的马匹。加尔文认为基督教学说必须适应经济生活的需要,每一个基督徒都可以通过自己在现世的勤奋劳作与成功来证明自己是上帝的“选民”。启蒙运动时期,法国有学者认为,经济也存在一套自然法则,那就是供给与需求。当政府对经济行为干预最小之时,这些法则运行得最好。

——摘编自裔昭印主编《世界文化史》(增订版)

材料四政治上的自由是公共自由,要保障公共自由,就应该避免把权力单独委托给一个人、几个人或少数人,因为一切有权力的人都容易滥用权力,这是万古不易的一条经验。为此,提出一条原则,要防止滥用权力,就必须用权力来约束权力,形成一种能联合各种权力的机制,其中各种权力既调节配合,又互相制约,即权力要分开掌握和使用。

——孟德斯鸠《罗马盛衰原因论》

材料五难道农民的儿子生来颈上带着圈,而贵族的儿子生来在腿上带着踢马刺吗?……一切享有各种天然能力的人,显然是平等的。……除了法律以外,不依赖任何别的东西,这就是自由人。——《伏尔泰语录》

材料六人人享有自由平等的权利而不论其出身。人们应自由订立社会契约,组成国家。社会中应有“共同意志”,人人遵守。社会契约就是共同意志的体现,代表所有人的权利与自由。这是至高无上的人民主权,不可侵犯,不得转让,不受限制,不准分割。为维护这一主权,必须使人人在法律面前一律平等,包括立法、司法、守法、受法律保护各受法律制裁各方面的平等。政府官员只是人民委派的工作人员,不享有主权。随着政府职位诱惑力的加大,人民应采取更有力的监督手段。人们在行使自由权时,绝不允许损害他人的自由,否则他自身也就不自由了。这时,共同意志就要通过法律手段制裁他,“强迫他自由”。——卢梭《社会契约论》

A

It was graduation day at the university where I work and a beautiful day quite unlike the first graduation I attended as a young professor. On that cold day years ago, as we watched the students walking into the hall, one of my colleagues turned to me and said . “Graduation will be one of the happiest and one of the saddest time of your life.” At my inquiry, he answered, “Because the students you have gotten to know have to leave.”

As years went by, my previous confusion about my colleague’s words no longer existed. When I came across naughty students, I have had to rethink why I chose to be a teacher. It obviously isn’t the money. Once a former computer science student of mine called me, asking me if I wanted to have a change. He was working at Nintendo Corporation. His salary was higher than my current one, though I have more education and have worked for over a decade. With my programming skills, he said he could get me hired. I thanked him, but declined his kind offer.

A few days before this current graduation, while working on final grades. I found a note a student ahd slipped in with her homework. She thanked me for beign her teacher and said the things she had learned in my class—not about math, but about life—would be things she would remember long after the math skills had faded away. As I finished reading, I remembered why I had become a teacher.

Now, on this sunny graduation day, as I again observed the sea of blue hats and gowns, I did so with renewed dedication and a deeper sense of satisfaction – I will always be grateful that I am a teacher.
