27、g politicians and lasting 11/2 to 2 hours, which characterized nineteenth-century political discourse, has given way to the 30-second advertisement and the 10-second “sound bite” in broadcast news.

42、d about related or contradictory views on a variety of issues. You will be required to identify the writers position and evaluate the effectiveness of the writers arguments. Read the following two passages and answer the questions.Passage AWhile On the origin of Species created a great stir when it

43、was published in 1859, Darwinian thought was almost completely out of vogue by the turn of the twentieth century. It took Ronald Fishers “Great Synthesis” of the 1920s, which combined the genetic work of Gregor Mendel with Darwins ideas about natural selection, and Theodosius Dobzhanskys “Modern Syn

44、thesis” of the 1930s, which was built upon Fishers work with genetics within a species by focusing on how genetic variation could cause the origin of a new species, to begin to rehabilitate Darwin.Yet, what is remarkable is how very prescient Darwin, working without knowledge of the mechanisms of he

45、redity, proved to be. As prominent biologist Ernst Mayr notes, what made Darwinian theory so remarkable was his emphasis on “population thinking”. This contrasts to Jean-Baptiste Lamarcks theory of evolution, popular throughout the nineteenth century, which posited that individuals changed personal

46、actions and will. Lamarckian theory is often exemplified by a giraffe constantly reaching up to eat leaves off high branches and passing on its lengthened neck to its children.Such explanations bore a strong resemblance to childrens fables (and indeed Rudyard Kiplings late-nineteenth-century Just So

47、 Stories was built upon Lamarckian theories). Where Darwin differed was his insistence that significant variation was not based within one particular individual, but rather in the breeding population as a whole. Natural selection was not based on the actions or goals of one individual, but variation

48、s in the average character of the species.Passage BAs Peter Bowler points out in his aptly named The Non-Darwinian Revolution: Reinterpreting a Historical Myth, nineteenth-century Darwinism was quite different from the Darwinism of today. Thomas Huxley, “Darwins Bulldog”, so called because of his ti

49、reless public campaigning for Darwinian thought, exemplifies this difference. As a result of his advocacy, by the end of the nineteenth century Huxley was the vehicle for Darwinian thought. Noted science fiction writer H. G. Wells, for instance, garnered all of his information about natural selection and evolution through Huxleys lectures. Yet Huxleys theory varied significantly from that of Darwin, foc
