问题     Each of us seeks our own path to bliss. In accepting the Nobel Prize from the Swedish King in 1980, I said that I had been doubly blessed. For in addition to receiving the recognition and distinction represented by the Nobel Prize, the research itself had given me indescribable pleasure. This kind of bliss is not uniquely(独特地)available to scientists only. Literature, music, art, even business, offers comparable rewards. It is there for all who venture beyond the realm of accepted knowledge and experience. Such adventuiss are challenging and demanding but well worth of the effort.
    For me, the adventure began as a young boy in secondary school. The wide range of questions we asked our teachers were rarely met with direct answers. Instead, our teachers encouraged us to find the answers by leading us to books, and most often to more than we had expected. Frequently, our teachers suggested ways to find the answers by searching the reference books that were available in libraries or by actual experimentation. As we progressed to high school, the teachers encouraged us to ask questions that went beyond our and their knowledge and experience, and to speculate(推测)on matters we could not find answers to. Later, when I was in a science club, I was challenged to solve problems about the natural world by experimentation. Perhaps it was those early experiences that sharpened my appetite for exploring the unknown and seeking solutions.
    Looking back on that period, I realize now that encouraging young people to discover for themselves the answers is not the easiest way to learn but it is the most rewarding. Developing curiosity and the instinct for seeking creative solutions are perhaps the most important contributions education can make. Schools everywhere would do well to pay attention to that lesson. And students everywhere must accept the responsibility that such an educational system places on them.
According to the author, his early experiences______.

选项 A、made him form a habit of exploring the world and finding the answers
B、gave him the opportunity to search the reference books in the library
C、asked him to do some actual experiment day by day
D、encouraged him to ask questions beyond his knowledge and experience

答案A

解析 由题干中的early experiences定位到第二段最后一句。该句提到,也许正是这些早年的经历激发了作者探索未知世界并寻求答案的欲望。由此可知作者早年的经历使他养成了探索世界和寻找答案的习惯,故答案为A)。
