With people swayed by this wrong (2)_____ that there is little use in arguing, either for history or literature, or for poetry or music, or for the arts (3)_____.
With others, there is still faith that any civilization worthy of the name must be (4)_____ in a ceaseless pursuit of truth. Whether truth is (5)_____ through study or through the arts makes no difference. Any pursuit of truth is not only (6)_____; it is the foundation stone of civilization.

All have their place; all are good; and each (9)_____ with the other. They are not airtight compartments. It is only in a few institutions, subjected to (10)_____ misinformation, that events like the Industrial Revolution are (11)_____ entirely to the historians, the social scientists, or the physical scientists. Only within the past hundred years have historians (12)_____ that what people have done in literature and art is a part of their history.

选项
A、intervals
B、spans
C、episodes
D、gaps
答案
C
解析
episodes"(若干或一连串时间中的)一个事件,插曲",该插曲给人印象深刻,比较重要。根据文章一致性的原则,该词与上文的"that events"形成一种照应。而选项intervals"(时间、空间上的)间隔,间距;间隙;空隙",选项spans"一段时间(尤指人的一生);短促的时间"和选项gaps"间隔;间断,间隙"均不符合题意。
