27.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.InsteadInstead解析：由本句句意“…修一台烤箱或一台收音机，买一台新的、扔掉旧的更容易、更便宜…”可知，肯定是“不修”，又因为有介词of，所以应填intead。insteadof意为“不做某事”，是固定短语。

17.dumpingdumping解析：由本句句意“通过将污水和化学物质…入河流和湖泊，…”可知，此空处显然应为“倒”。又因为介词后只能用dumping，而不能用dump。

18.complycomply解析：此处句意为“他们会很懊恼的服从”，表示服从，遵从的短语是complywith。所以此处应填“comply”。

19.towardtoward解析：作者要表达的意思是“我怎么才能对别人诚实。”英语中表达“对某人…”一般是用介词toward。故答案为toward。

20.themthem解析：本题考查代词的用法，根据上下文，此处句意为“人们使用这些小玩意儿。”上文已经提到gadgets，所以这里用代词“them”代替。

21.outout解析：handout意为“分发，施舍”，为固定短语。

22.stillstill解析：本句意为“但是空气污染，尽管它…是最危险的，但也只是几种攻击最基本生活功能的污染方式之一。”显然，可知此空应填“仍然”。

23.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。

24.thoughthough解析：本句话的意思是“尽管知道顾客们可能不知道自己为什么买了这些商品，但是卖家却知道怎么去做。”故答案为though。

25.paperpaper解析：由前一句“…arenowpaperthrowaways．”可知，“不久以后我们将穿由纸制作的衣服。”

26.C解析：由C中的第一段“Thecityisnowthelargestindustrialcityinthecountry．”可知答案为C。

27.B解析：文章一开始就说“…suggeststhatwidespreadappreciationbycriticsisarelatively
