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、admitted
B、confessed
C、ensured
D、guaranteed
答案
A
解析
admitted"承认,供认",通常指不得不承认一件事实确凿、不可否认的事情。本题考查词义辨析。文章意思是:"在过去的几百年里历史学家才承认了人们在文学和艺术方面所做的是历史的一部分"。最大的干扰项为选项confessed"坦白,供认;承认",但该词常指正式"供认"自己的秘密,"招认"、"坦白"、"忏悔"错误、罪行等。而选项ensured"保证,担保,保证获得"和选项guaranteed"担保,确保"均不符合题意。
