29. 다음 빈칸에 들어갈 말로 가장 적절한 것을 고르시오.

 

It is a fundamental mistake to imagine that when we see
the non-value in a value or the untruth in a truth, the value or the truth
ceases to exist. It has only become relative. Everything human is relative,
because everything rests on an inner polarity; for everything is a phenomenon of energy.
Energy necessarily depends on a pre-existing polarity, without which there could be no energy.
There must always be high and low, hot and cold, etc.,
so that the equilibrating process ― which is energy ― can take place.
Therefore the tendency to deny all previous values in favor of their opposites is just _________________________. And in so far as it is a question of rejecting
universally accepted and indubitable values, the result is a fatal loss. [3점]

 

① another way of pursuing relativeness in human affairs

② as desirable as the tendency to accept all those values

③ as much of an exaggeration as the earlier onesidedness

④ the one and only way of approaching the ultimate truth

⑤ to admit the presence of energy derived from an inner polarity

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

정답: 3번 문장분석 It is a fundamental mistake [to imagine [that [when we see the non-value (in a value) or the untruth (in a truth)], the value or the truth ceases [to exist]]]. It has only become relative. Everything / human is relative, [because everything rests (on an inner polarity)]; for everything is a phenomenon of energy. Energy necessarily depends (on a pre-existing polarity, /(without which) there could be no energy). There must always be high and low, hot and cold, etc., [so that the equilibrating process ― /which is energy ― can take place]. Therefore the tendency [to deny all previous values (in favor of their opposites)] is just as much of an exaggeration as the earlier onesidedness. And [in so far as it is a question of [rejecting universally accepted and indubitable values]], the result is a fatal loss.
