Is there something as truth？ For a good many centuries "the search for truth" has been (31) the noblest activity of the human mind, but the seekers after truth have come to such (32) conclusions that it often seems that very little progress has been made. (33) , there are many people who reel that we are actually going backward. They (34) , often contemptuously, that we have accumulated more "knowledge" than our ancestors, but they think we are farther from the truth than ever, or even that we have (35) the truth that we once possessed. If people look for anything long enough without finding it, the question naturally arises (36) the thing is really there to find. You have seen a picture of an animal with a lion's head, a goat's body, and a serpent's tail--and maybe an eagle's wings for good (37) There is plenty of evidence that each part of this animal (38) --but there is no (39) evidence that the parts ever occur in this combination.

Fresco, one of the greatest of all art forms, is done with watercolor. It is created by mixing pigments and water and applying these to wet plaster. Of the thousands of people who stand under Michlangelo's heroic ceiling in the Sistine Chapel, very few are aware that they are looking at perhaps the greatest watercolor painting in the world.
The invention of oil painting by the Flemish masters in the fifteenth century led to a decline in fresco painting, and for the next several centuries watercolor was used mainly as a medium for doing preliminary sketches or as a tool for study. It was not until the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries that English painters reinstated watercolor as a serious art form. The English have a notorious love for the outdoors and also a great fondness for small, intimate pictures. The subdued tones of watercolor had a remarkably strong appeal for them.
What is the main theme of the passage？
A．The decline of fresco painting.
B．The predominance of oils over watercolor.
C．The rediscovery of watercolor in England.
D．The origins and development of watercolor.
根据以下内容回答题：
As contrasts go，there are few other pairs of culture as distinct from each other as the Japa-nese and the Americans．Japan’s many centuries of history and especially its Buddhist heritage have given the Japanese an attitude of repose（从容）——the best course is to let it be：When the time is ripe，things will work out by．themselves．America，on the other hand，is just a few centuries old and displays an almost volcanic liveliness and restlessness．For the Japanese，social harmony has a prior claim in every circumstance；for the Americans，harmony is the result of the rational interaction of free and fair-minded people．One does not lightly move from traditions in Japan，many of which are centuries old；in the United States，the habits and attitudes of even one’S parent’S generation are suspect． Every cuhure，through its legal and institutional arrangements，mirrors the society’S reso-lution of some basic human problems．These can provide a useful framework for the analysis of cuhural differences．Organizations also face the same problems and usually take their cue from the prevailing culture in designing solutions to these problems．This suggests that the perspec-tive provided by viewing cuhure through the framework of this problem will be useful for organi-zational analysis as well．The following sections present a discussion of such a framework in the context of the contrast between Japan and the United States． Before this is presented，however，we must alert the reader that the differences are stated here as being sharper than they may be in reality．On each of the aspects discussed later，there is naturally considerable variation within each culture，because examples demonstrating the cul-tural reality opposite to the one described in this book can be found easily．Thus，the following discussion should be viewed in the way it is presented，as generalizations and tendencies rather than as absolutes．
Cultural differences between the Japanese and the Americans are the__________ ．
A.most obvious
B.slightest
C.Same
D.less suitable
