38.ThehistoryofresponsestotheworkoftheartistSandroBotticelli(1444—1510)suggeststhatwidespreadappreciationbycriticsisarelativelyrecentphenomenon.Writingin1550,VasariexpressedanuneasewithBotticelli'swork,admittingthattheartistfittedawkwardlyintohisevolutionaryschemeofthehistoryofart.Overthenexttwocenturies,academicarthistoriansdefamedBotticelliinfavorofhisfellowsFlorentine,Michelangelo.Evenwhenanti-academicarthistoriansoftheearlynineteenthcenturyrejectedmanyofthestandardsofevaluationadoptedbytheirpredecessors,Botticelli'sworkremainedoutsideofacceptedtaste,pleasingneitheramateurobserversnorconnoisseurs.(Manyofhisbestpaintings,however,remainedhiddenawayinobscurechurchesandprivatehomes.)

TheprimaryreasonforBotticelli'sunpopularityisnotdifficulttounderstand:mostobservers,upuntilthemid-nineteenthcentury,didnotconsiderhimtobenoteworthy,becausehiswork,forthemostpart,didnotseemtotheseobserverstoexhibitthetraditionalcharacteristicsofthefifteenth-centuryFlorentineart.Forexample,Botticellirarelyemployedthetechniqueofstrictperspectiveand,unlikeMichelangelo,neverusedchiaroscuro.

AnotherreasonforBotticelli'sunpopularitymayhavebeenthathisattitudetowardthestyle.ofclassicalartwasverydifferentfromthatofhiscontemporaries.Althoughhewasthoroughlyexposedtoclassicalart,heshowedlittleinterestinborrowingfrom,theclassicalstyle.Indeed,itisparadoxicalthatapainteroflarge-scaleclassicalsubjectsadoptedastyle.thatwas.onlyslightlysimilartothatofclassicalart.

Inanycase,whenviewersbegantoexaminemorecloselytherelationshipofBotticelli'sworktothetraditionofthefifteenthcenturyHorentineart,hisreputationbegantogrow.AnalysesandassessmentsofBotticellimadebetween1850and1870bytheartistsofthePre-Raphaelitemovement,aswellasbythewriterPater(althoughhe,unfortunately,basedhisassessmentonanincorrectanalysisofBotticelli'spersonality),inspiredanewappreciationofBotticellithroughouttheEnglish-speakingworld.YetBotticelli'swork,especiallytheSistinefrescoes,didnotgenerateworldwideattentionuntilitwasfinallysubjectedtoacomprehensiveandscrupulousanalysisbyHomein1908.Homerightlydemonstratedthatthefrescoessharedimportantfeatureswithpaintingsbyotherfifteenth-centuryFlorentines—featuressuchasskillfulrepresentationofanatomicalproportions,andofthehumanfigureinmotion.However,Homearguedthat.Botticellididnottreatthesequalitiesasendsinthemselves—rather,thatheemphasizedcleardepletionofastory,auniqueachievementandonethatmadethetraditionalFlorentinequalitieslesscentral.

BecauseofHome'semphasiscrucialtoanystudyofart,thetwentiethcenturyhascometoappreciateBotticelli'sa-chievements.

14.B

15.B

16.olderolder解析：grow只能是年龄越来越大。

17.whichwhich解析：“声誉建立的基础”英语表达为“thefoundationonwhichreputationsarebuilt”，which指代foundations。

18.thosethose解析：文章中提到“16-19岁之间的日本青年跟25-29岁之间的青年对比”，这里缺少代词，替代“Japaneseyouth”。所以此处应填“those”

19.rewardreward解析：通篇文章均是在讲报酬与创造性的关系，此句意为“如果孩子们知道他们在为…工作，…。”显然，此空处应填“报酬”。

20.whatwhat解析：这句话的意思是“这就是商家和卖者希望顾客们做的事情”，what引导的是一个表语从句，故答案为what。

21.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”。

22.whosewhose解析：此句意为“StephanieThomas，一位学习辅导老师，…发现已经发表了…。”由此可知，空处所填单词必为whose，引导定语从句，修饰teacher。

23.gripgrip解析：显然，此空应填一个动词“握，拿”，英语中握笔用动词grip。

24.differencedifference解析：显然，这句话是在对老年人和年轻人写字之间进行比较，而且由后半句中的“getbetterat…”可知，此空必为“不同的”。

25.callscalls解析：此句意为“他把这种缺乏礼节的行为称作是一种无意识的无礼”。call+双宾语结构，以为“把…称为”，所以此处填“calls”。

26.D解析：书评一中的“…heignoressomekeyargumentsinfavorofthemarket…”，书评二中的“Whilepartsofthisbookaredisappointinglyshallow…”，书评三种的“Stiglitz，58，ishardlythefirstpersontoaccusetheIMF…”都有提到Stiglitz的一些负面的消息。所以本题应选D。

27.D解析：第二段第一句提到“…butoldwastefulhabitsdiehard”，可知虽然美国人开始回收利用一些物品，但是那种浪费的旧习惯依然不好消除。最后一句话“…itcanbecomestrongeronlyasAmericansseetheneedforitmoreclearly．”也说明了只有当美国人真正意识到环保的重要性，他们才能更好的具有环保意识，言外之意就是说他们依然没有完全意识到环保的重要性。故应选D。

28.B解析：由B中的第二段最后几句话“Millerisorderedtotakehissquadbehindenemylinesonadangerousmissiontofindandretrieveoneman：PrivateJamesRyan．”可知。

29.D解析：文章的结尾，作者说我们不知道学校学生的能力和大脑两半球功能之间的确切关系；我们不懂大脑两半球是如何通过corpuscallosum相互作用的；间接地提出对于corpuscallosum的影响，多作研究工作。所以本题应选D。

30.D解析：由D中的advantage中的第四句话“Windfarmscanbetouristattractions．”可知答案为D。

31.C解析：由短文倒数第二段可知美国只有四个州没有importtaxes。美国一共50个州，所以应该有46个有importtaxes。

32.D解析：文章开始就指出“…sparkingdebateoverstrikingthecorrectbalancebetweenprotectingcivillibertiesandattemptingtopreventanothertragicterroristact．”这说明作者认为一方面要防止类似的恐怖袭击活动，但另一方面也要注意保护公民的隐私权利，而且这双方面应该取得平衡。故应选D。

33.A解析：从文章最后一段“Potentialhomebuyerswouldcheerforlowerinterestrates.Employerswouldn'tmindalittlefewerbubblesinthe{obmarket…”可以看出，尽管经济形势不好，但是还是有人能够受益的，比如说，想买房子的人认为这种低利息，就业市场等等。故应选A。

34.AA解析：由上段的最后一句话“tookoverthehardphysicaltasksandrelievedthestrainonhumanandanimalmuscles.”可知答案为A，后面选项中的“thelaborthatrequffedthehumaneyes,ears,judgmentandmindbutnosweating”与之呼应，故应选A。

35.A解析：由短文第二段中的“Ceramics，florinstance，havelongbeenlimitedbytheirbrittleness．”。

36.B解析：由短文第一段中的“Andaccordingtolegend，therewasaTurkishrulerwho…Topayfortheweal"andtearonhisteeth．”。

37.BB解析：由上一段段意可知，B放在最后一处最合适。

38.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。

39.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。

40.D解析：这是一个通篇的中心归纳的考察题。文章一开始就指出“Beforeabigexam，asoundnight’ssleepwilldoyoubetterthanpongovertextbooks．”意思是在晚上好好的睡觉对记忆是有好处的。最后作者有归纳了研究的结果，“…concludedthatthenerveconnectionsinvolvedinmemoryarereinforcedthroughreactivationduringREMsleep…．”也说明结构性知识在REM睡眠中是可以巩固的。故应选D。

41.B短文赏析

本文讲述了一名历史教师的悲哀。现在的历史课已经越来越少被学生重视了。他们不认为历史有任何的用处，即使学完一个学期也不会记得任何东西。历史感在年轻人中已经相当淡漠，他们也不会再为历史人物的事迹而感动，大多数人甚至不知道越南战争的双方是谁。

答案解析：

文中提到“…theyoungformerinvestmentbanker．．．”。

42.C由短文倒数第二段可知美国只有四个州没有importtaxes。美国一共50个州，所以应该有46个有importtaxes。

43.D由D中的最后一段倒数第二句话“ThetempleisacombinationofHan．TibetanandNepalesearchitecturaltechniques．”可知。

44.B原文的第三段最后“Whattheydidnotknow．．．followedapattern--whatisreferredtoas”artificialgrammar“．Yetthereductionsinresponsetimeshowedthat…”说明了这种内在模式，也就是“artificialgrammar”，对于记忆的重要性。故应选B。

45.B由本文倒数第一段中的“Asfortheastronauts’politicalleanings，theyseemtobetowardstheright．”2022-2023年山西省太原市公共英语五级(笔试)模拟考试(含答案)学校:________班级:________姓名:________考号:________
