31.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.

Whichofthefollowingwouldbethebesttitleforthetext?

15.(at)(the)Nextmeeting/(the)followingmeeting．

16.asas解析：thinkofsth．assth．為固定短語，意為“把某物想成某物”。

17.olderolder解析：grow只能是年齡越來越大。

18.losinglosing解析：根據(jù)上下文的意思，很多年輕一代的日本人已經不再尊重父母，不再對家庭有責任感，所以這里用。losing表示“漸漸失去了”。所以此處應填“l(fā)osing”。

19.drinkingdrinking解析：由本句句意“通過將污水和化學物質倒入河流和湖泊，我們已經污染了我們的…水?！憋@然，此空處應為“飲用”。

20.sellingselling解析：關鍵是看and后面的buying。本句話的意思是“商家分析市場的供需情況?！惫蚀鸢笧閟elling。

21.offoff解析：turnoff是“關掉”的意思，此題考查動詞短語的用法，根據(jù)上下文語境，這里意思是“關掉你的手機”。所以用副詞“off”。

22.whosewhose解析：此句意為“StephanieThomas，一位學習輔導老師，…發(fā)現(xiàn)已經發(fā)表了…?！庇纱丝芍仗幩顔卧~必為whose，引導定語從句，修飾teacher。

23.acrossacross解析：getacross意為“使(觀點等)被理解或接受，講清自己的意思”，此句意為“給他們講清巨大的成功不會輕易、快速地到來很重要?！?/p>

24.someonesomeone解析：由本文的第一句話“‘Down-to-earth’meanssomeoneorsomethingthatishonest．realisticandeasytodealwith．”可知“Down-to-earth”指的是誠實，現(xiàn)實、平易近人的那些人。這里的someone和后面是相對應的。故答案為someone。

25.accordingaccording解析：accordingto意為“根據(jù)”，為固定短語，本句句意為“根據(jù)對…的嚴格調查，…?！?/p>

26.BB解析：由下一段第一句中提到的“tomato”可知只有B中“Supporterssaythetomato”與之對應。

27.D解析：deforestation意為“濫伐森林”。

28.B解析：由B中“Thesesellforanythingbetween￡2millionand￡5million．”，每套住房銷售價格在200萬英鎊到500萬英鎊之間不等，極其昂貴。所以此處答案為B。

29.B解析：第三段中Dr．Laragh提到“…所以建議所有人應該少吃鹽沒有意義?！笨梢酝浦?，他的言下之意是“醫(yī)生不應建議人們不吃鹽”。

30.C解析：由文章第二段可知C不對，而A、B、D文中均提到了。

31.B解析：文章一開始就說“…suggeststhatwidespreadappreciationbycriticsisarelativelyrecentphenomenon．”桑德羅·波提切利作品被關注是最近才有的現(xiàn)象，接下來作者說明被拋棄的原因以及重新被認識的原因。所以整篇文章都是圍繞它的作品是如何被拒絕后來又被欣賞的。故應選B。

32.D解析：由D中的第一段“…ithasahistoryofmorethan1,300”可知。

33.C解析：由C中的第一段最后一句話“…occupyingabuildingspaceof90thousandsquaremeters”可知。

34.A解析：由A中的最后一句話“…takeonaneconomy-wideperspectivetodrawlessonsforagriculture，trade，landuseandtaxpolicy．”可知。

35.B解析：此題是有關作者態(tài)度的問題。由第5、6段可以看出女客服的回答兩人很不滿，很沮喪。所以本題應選B。

36.A解析：“Comparisonofthesignificanceoftwoeconomicbooks”含有對兩本經濟書的對比信息的，我們可以看出四個書評中只有A．中提到了兩本書之間的關系。所以本題應選A。

37.D解析：根據(jù)這篇文章，普遍認為大腦的區(qū)別由什么因素引起的?短文第三段倒數(shù)第二句話說“Wetendtothinkthat，istheinfluenceofsocietythatproducesthesedifferences．”即我們認為社會的影響造成了這些區(qū)別。A、B、c均不符合題意。所以本題應選D。

38.A解析：由A中“TheunpopulararchitecturehasledtotheareabeingcalledmeMiltonKeynesofLondonbutpropertiesarespaciousandunfashionablestyle.haskeptpricesdown”可以看出房屋樣式古板，但是價位令人比較容易接受。所以此處答案為A。

39.D解析：由短文第六段可知答案為D。

40.C解析：由C中的第二段“．．．asubstantialagriculturesector．Whichcontributestodeforestation，theerosionofthetopsoilanddesertification，hasledtoextremepressuresontheenvironmentand…”可知。

41.D由上一段中的“Edwina…andcalledhimontheinter-com．”可知D中的“…closertotheintercom…”與之呼應。

42.B基因治療和以基因為基礎的藥物是我們從遺傳科學中獲得利益的兩種方式。在未來幾年內，這些基因療法會發(fā)展成為主流醫(yī)學。如果醫(yī)生利用基因知識，分離干細胞，然后培育這些細胞，他們就可能為病人提供健康的移植組織。這種技術同樣也有助于克隆技術的發(fā)展，以后越來越多的動植物將會被克隆，甚至人本身。排除道德法律的因素，利用基因克隆培養(yǎng)出來的人的各種健康器官，一些病將會被更好的治療。

答案解析：

文章開宗明義，在第一段講述到，如果我們掌握了基因科學，將會對人類有極大的好處。此外第三段的第一句“Yetthistin-tappedpotentialcouldbeaterrificboontomedicine”，意為“然而這種沒被開發(fā)的潛能對醫(yī)學有極大的好處”，作者在全文的最后一句又呼應了這一觀點。故應選B。

43.C由短文第三段中“Theindustrialagemaynowbecomingtoanend，andsomeofthechangesinworkpatternswhichitbroughtmayhavetobereversed．”可知。

44.D文章最后一段指出，“Congressshouldpasslegislation…，allowcustomerstooptoutofsuchdatacollection，and…．”，意思就是說國會應該要求網站公示收集用戶隱私信息的政策，通過何種方式收集的，告訴用戶怎么才能避開這些信息收集以及怎么查閱所收集的信息等等內容。optout的意思是“避開、避免”。故應選D。

45.A從文章最后一句話“BecauseofHome’semphasiscrucialtoanystudyofart，thetwentiethcenturyhascometoappreciateBotticelli’sachievements．”可以看出，作者認為波提切利的作品在二十一世紀會被重新的認識，人們會重新認識他作品的成就。故應選A。2021年江蘇省泰州市公共英語五級(筆試)模擬考試(含答案)學校:________班級:________姓名:________考號:________
