There has arisen during this twentieth century (as it arose before, in ages which we like to call dark) a pronounced anti intellectualism, a feeling that both studies and literature are not merely vain, but also (1)_____ untrustworthy. 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.
The (7)_____ for and reading of history is one of those approaches to truth. It is only ones all the arts and sciences are such (8)_____. 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. Books like Uncle Tom’s Cabin have themselves helped to (13)_____ history.
Even at the moment, when scientific (14)_____ becomes more and more specialized and the historian concentrates more and more fiercely on periods and (15)_____, it is becoming more (16)_____ to the layman that all this is part of one whole. Even on a (n) (17)_____ when textbooks are being written to introduce to the theoretical physicist his colleagues who are working as chemists or engineers on perhaps the same problem, the layman is far enough (18)_____ from all this specialization to see the whole, possibly even more clearly than do the (19)_____. Between history, biography, the arts and sciences, and even journalism, who could draw airtight (20)_____? Not laymen. Is not yesterday’s newspaper history, and may it not become literature?
选项
A、paradoxical
B、absurd
C、feasible
D、obvious
答案
D
解析
obvious"显然的,明显的,无疑的"。根据文章一致性的原则,该词与下文的"clearly"形成一种照应。而选项paradoxical"似非而是的,自相矛盾的",选项absurd"荒谬的,荒唐的;滑稽可笑的"和选项feasible"可行的,行得通的;可用的,适宜的"均不符合题意。
