39.ThehistoryofresponsestotheworkoftheartistSandroBotticelli(1444-1510)suggeststhatwidespreadappreciationbycriticsisarelativelyrecentphenomenon.Writingin1550,VasariexpressedanuneasewithBotticelli'swork,admittingthattheartistfittedawkwardlyintohisevolutionaryschemeofthehistoryofart.Overthenexttwocenturies,academicarthistoriansdefamedBotticelliinfavorofhisfellowsFlorentine.Michelangelo.Evenwhenanti-academicarthistoriansoftheearlynineteenthcenturyrejectedmanyofthestandardsofevaluationadoptedbytheirpredecessors,Botticelli'workremainedoutsideofacceptedtaste,pleasingneitheramateurobserversnorconnoisseurs.(Manyofhisbestpaintings,however,remainedhiddenawayinobscurechurchesandprivatehomes.)
TheprimaryreasonforBotticelli'sunpopularityisnotdifficulttounderstand:mostobservers,upuntilthemid-nineteenthcentury,didnotconsiderhimtobenoteworthy,becausehiswork,forthemostpart.didnotseemtotheseobserverstoexhibitthetraditionalcharacteristicsofthefifteenth-centuryFlorentineart.Forexample.Botticellirarelyemployedthetechniqueofstrictperspectiveand,unlikeMichelangelo,neverusedchiaroscuro.
AnotherreasonforBotticelli'sunpopularitymayhavebeenthathisattitudetowardthestyle.ofclassicalartwasverydifferentfromthatofhiscontemporaries.Althoughhewasthoroughlyexposedtoclassicalart.heshowedlittleinterestinborrowingfromtheclassicalstyle.Indeed,itisparadoxicalthatapainteroflarge-scaleclassicalsubjectsadoptedastyle.thatwasonlyslightlysimilartothatofclassicalart.
Inanycase,whenviewersbegantoexaminemorecloselytherelationshipofBotticelli'sworktothetraditionofthefifteenthcenturyFlorentineart,hisreputationbegantogrow.AnalysesandassessmentsofBotticellimadebetween1850and1870bytheartistsofthePre-Raphaelitemovement,aswellasbythewriterPater(althoughhe.unfortunately,basedhisassessmentonanincorrectanalysisofBotticelli'spersonality),inspiredanewappreciationofBotticellithroughouttheEnglish-speakingworld.YetBotticelli'swork,especiallytheSistinefrescoes.didnotgenerateworldwideattentionuntilitwasfinallysubjectedto4comprehensiveandscrupulousanalysisbyHomein1908.Homerightlydemonstratedthatthefrescoessharedimportantfeatureswithpaintingsbyotherfifteenth-centuryFlorentines—featuressuchasskillfulrepresentationofanatomicalproportions,andofthehumanfigureinmotion.However,HomearguedthatBotticellididnottreatthesequalitiesasendsinthemselves—rather.thatheemphasizedcleardepletionofastory,auniqueachievementandonethatmadethetraditionalFlorentinequalities1esscentral.BecauseofHome'semphasiscrucialtoanystudyofart,thetwentiethcenturyhascometoappreciateBotticelli'sachievements.

16.oppositeopposite解析:从文章第二段的内容可以看出,Adown-to-earthperson和那些表面上装的很重要的人物正好相反。所以这里应填“相反的”,故答案为opposite。
17.reasonsreasons解析:本段的第一句话提出问题,问为什么在结算处摆设了那么多的商品。很明显,后面的文章对这个问题进行回答,并列举了原因。故答案为reasons。
18.proportionproportion解析:此处意为很大比例的学生仍然喜欢简单的工作,所以此处应填“proportion”。
19.SometimeSometime解析:通过对后面句子的分析,我们可以知道那些想入非非、飘飘欲仙的人有朝一日也是可以“双脚落地的”,那就是“sharpwordsfromteacher”,所以这里表示的是“有朝一日”,故答案为sometime。
20.betweenbetween解析:此句意为“Thomas先生尽管不能在握笔方式和拼写准确性之间建立重要的统计学联系,…”所以答案为介词between。
21.withoutwithout解析:此处意为年轻人更喜欢没有重大责任的简单工作。所以此处应填“without”。
22.forfor解析:解析见上题。desire后面用介词for。故答案为for,表示“…的欲望”。
23.ratherrather解析:此空所在句意为“用四个手指握笔而不是三个。”ratherthan表示“而不是”。
24.thethe解析:此处缺冠词,在年轻人之间,用the表示特指。所以此处应填“the”。
25.werewere解析:考查被动语态的用法,注意分析句子成分。所以此处应填“were”。
26.A解析:文中提到“…urgedcautioninensuringthateffortstoprotectournationdonotresultinbroadgovernmentauthoritytoerodeprivacyrightsofU.S.citizens.”其意思是“保护国家的利益也不应该伤害美国居民的个人隐私权利”,可知作者认为这项提议是不公正的。故应选A。
27.A解析:由短文最后一段中的“Andthattransitioncouldprovedifficult,forswitchingrequireslengthyresearchandinvestment.”。
28.C解析:A、B、D在文中均提到,是正确的,而C不对,文中提到“Youwouldexpectthemtofindtheirfriendsfromtheirprofessionalassociates,butthisisnotthecase.Rather,theyprefertomakefriendswiththenormalfolkintheirdistricts.”
29.C解析:选项A即心理学家已经放弃,而生物学家正在展开研究工作。而文中第三句话说“Psychologistsviewthesubjecteitherasamatteroffrustrationorajoke.”即心理学家认为这个研究不是一件沮丧的事,就是一个笑话,此句和选项A含义不一样。选项B即大脑区别显示出一个性别优于另外一个性别。而文中第一段最后一句话说“Butbeingdifferent,theypointouthurriedly,isnotthesameasbeingbetterorworse.”即他们指出尽管有区别,但并不能说明谁优谁劣,此句和选项B含义不一样。选项D两性大脑结构的区别早已为人所知。而文中第三段第三句话说“Thisisthefirsttimethatastructuraldifferencehasbeenfoundbetweenthebrainsofwomenandmen…”即这是第一次人们发现了两性大脑结构的不同,此句和选项D含义不一样。所以本题应选C。
30.A解析:“这些区别”指的是什么?短文第五段主题句说“Butitisn'tallthateasytoexplaintheactualdifferencesbetweenskillsofmenandwomenonthisbasis.”即在此基础上解释两性技能的区别并不是很容易的事。由此可见,“这些区别”指的是两性技能。所以本题应选A。
31.C解析:由C中的第二段“Itisnowconsideredthecenterofindustry,transportation,commerceandfinanceinthemid—westarea.”可知答案为C。
32.D解析:文章最后一段指出,“Congressshouldpasslegislation…,allowcustomerstooptoutofsuchdatacollection,and…”,意思就是说国会应该要求网站公示收集用户隐私信息的政策,通过何种方式收集的,告诉用户怎么才能避开这些信息收集以及怎么查阅所收集的信息等等内容。optout的意思是“避开、避免”。故应选D。
33.D解析:由文章第四段可知本题答案为D。
34.B解析:由B中的后面部分“Themostimportantconstructions…HeavenKitchen,…othersofhistoricinterestandscenicbeauty。”可知。
35.C解析:由短文第一段中的“Smithnoted,‘Betweentheamoutofsodiumapersonconsumesandheartdisease,circulatorydisorders,strokeandevenearlydeath.’”可知。
36.A解析:第二段中指出“…whenbrainandbodyareactive”,大脑积极运转是眼珠快速转动的主要特征,且在第三、四段又再次说明。选项B“被研究者很快的反应速度”,选项C“复杂的记忆模式”和选项D“前一天事件的重现”都不是眼球快速运动的主要特征。故应选A。
37.A解析:由A中的第二段第二句话“Oneithersideofthepalacearemanycomparativelysmallbuildings.”可知。
38.A解析:由短文第二段中的“Ceramics,florinstance,havelongbeenlimitedbytheirbrittleness.”。
39.B解析:文章一开始就说“…suggeststhatwidespreadappreciationbycriticsisarelativelyrecentphenomenon.”桑德罗·波提切利作品被关注是最近才有的现象,接下来作者说明被抛弃的原因以及重新被认识的原因。所以整篇文章都是围绕它的作品是如何被拒绝后来又被欣赏的。故应选B。
40.B解析:由B中的第四句话“ThenorthernpartoftheTempleiscircularwhilethesouthernpartissquare,”可知.
41.B文章一开始就说“...suggeststhatwidespreadappreciationbycriticsisarelativelyrecentphenomenon.”桑德罗·波提切利作品被关注是最近才有的现象,接下来作者说明被抛弃的原因以及重新被认识的原因。所以整篇文章都是围绕它的作品是如何被拒绝后来又被欣赏的。故应选B。

43.A文中提到“...urgedcautioninensuringthateffortstoprotectournationdonotresultinbroadgovernmentauthoritytoerodeprivacyrightsofU.S.citizens.”其意思是“保护国家的利益也不应该伤害美国居民的个人隐私权利”,可知作者认为这项提议是不公正的。故应选A。
