“What an excellent thing is knowledge,” said a sharp-looking, talkative man to one who was 41 older than himself. “Knowledge is an 42 thing, as everyone can see,” 43 he. “My boys know more at six and seven years old than I did at twelve. They can read all sorts of books, and 44 on all sorts of subjects. The world is a great deal wiser than it used to be. Everybody knows 45 of everything now . Do you not think, sir , that knowledge is an excellent thing ?” “ 46 , sir,” replied the old man in surprise, looking 47 in manner, “that depends 48 upon the use it is applied. It may be a blessing or a curse(沮咒). Knowledge is only an 49 of power, and power may be bad, 50 a good thing” “That is what I can’t understand, ” said the 51 little man. “How can power be a bad thing?”
“I will tell you” calmly replied the old man and thus he went on: “When the power of a horse is under control, the animal is 52 in bearing burden, drawing loads, and carrying his master, but 53 that power is out of control, the horse 54 his bridle (缰绳),dashes to pieces the carriage that he draws, or throws his 55 . ” “I see! ” said the little man.
“When the ship is operated alright, the sail that she 56 enables her sooner to get into port, but if operated 57 ,the more sails she carries, the further she will go out of her course”“I see!” said the little man, “ I clearly see! ”
“Well then,” 58 the old man, “if you see these things clearly, I hope you can see, too, that knowledge, to be good thing, must be rightly applied. God’s grace in the heart will make the knowledge of the head a blessing but 59 this, it may 60 to us no better than a curse.” “I see! I see! ” said the little man, “I see! ”
