问题 The museum’s compelling new architectural exhibition looks at 11 projects that around the world that have had major (i)________impacts despite modest budgets. It is part of (ii)________in the museum’s architecture and designing department, which in the past has championed that artistic value over its real-world consequences.
Blank (i)    Blank (ii)
A. aesthetic D. an emphasis on theory
B. pragmatic E. a rejection of pragmatism
C. social    F. a shift in philosophy

选项

答案C,E

解析 这道题目比较难,解题线索不容易被识别。空格(i)表示的是这个新建筑展有着什么样的影响,尽管预算有限(modest budget)。原则上我们对modest,budget方向取反填入一个正评价即可,但是发现没有可以体现出“大”的概念的选项,但是A、B、C三个选项都能体现出其影响大,所以带着疑问继续往后面阅读。题干的最后一句话中提到in the past,这是一个非常重要的解题线索,因为“时间点前后构成对比”,这是一个固定的原则。在过去,博物馆支持的是建筑的艺术价值高于对现实世界的影响(which in the past has championed that artistic value over its real-world consequences),所以现在就应该是对其取反,表示重视对现实世界(real-world)的影响即可,所以空格(i)填入一个表示“现实世界”类似概念的词,选择C。继续解决空格(ii),空格(ii)说这是博物馆建筑与设计部门的一个________,空格(ii)前后体现出其喜好的改变,填入一个表示“喜好兴趣改变”的类似选项即可,所以这里选择E。注意philosophy不要理解成狭隘的“哲学”,philosophy:the system of values by which one lives,指世界观、价值观、人生观均可。
