It is a success in so far as more women retain their youthful
appearance to a greater age than in the past. "Old ladies" are
already becoming rare. In a few years, we may well believe, they
will be extinctive. Ugliness is one of the symptoms of disease. In【M1】______
so far as the campaign for more beauty is also a campaign for more
health, it is admirable but genuinely successful. Beauty that is【M2】______
merely the artificial shadow of these symptoms of health is
intrinsically poorer quality than the genuine article. The apparatus【M3】______
for mimicking the symptoms of health is now within the reach of
every moderately prosperity person; the knowledge of the way in【M4】______
which real health can be achieved is growing, and will in time, no
doubt, universally acted upon. When that happy moment comes,【M5】______
will every woman be beautiful—as beautiful, at any rate, as the
natural shape of his features, with or without surgical and chemical【M6】______
aid permits?
The answer is obvious: No. For real beauty is as much an
affair of the inner as the outer self. The beauty of a porcelain jar is【M7】______
the matter of shape, of colour, of surface texture. The jar may be【M8】______
empty or tenanted by spiders, full of honey or stinking slime—it
makes no difference as to its beauty or ugliness. But a woman is【M9】______
lively, and her beauty is therefore not skin deep. The surface of the【M10】______
human vessel is affected by the nature of its spiritual contents.
【M1】
选项
答案
extinctive—extinct
解析
词汇错误。extinctive表示“使消减的:消灭的”,这里是说“老太太”现在很少见了,在几年后可能彻底地销声匿迹,extinct本身就是形容词,表示“灭绝的,消逝的”,放在这里符合语义。
