问题 For Plato the art of music was so (i)________moral and political reality that any alteration to music system would necessarily require a corresponding political shift. But two and a half millennia later, when classical music is generally seen merely as a lifestyle accessory, Plato’s conception seems (ii)________. To be sure, there are still people who consider classical music to be of (iii)________ cultural importance, but few of them are able to articulate this convincingly.
Blank (i)                 Blank (ii)      Blank (iii)
A. rarely identified with D. apt          G. marginal
B. tenuously connected to E. absurd       H. profound
C. firmly anchored in     F. disingenuous I. uncertain

选项

答案C,E,H

解析 空格(i)所在的两句话的逻辑连接词为so…that(如此……以至于),引导因果,因的部分与果的部分同义对应。对于柏拉图而言,音乐是如此________道德与政治的事实,以至于任何对于音乐系统的改变都需要相应的政治改变。空格(i)需要填入表示音乐与道德和政治事实之间关系的词。果的部分说明音乐和政治密切相关,而且是正相关,所以空格(i)填入表示“密切相关”的词,扫视选项:A项rarely identified with(与……不一致),B项tenuously connected to(联系薄弱),C项firmly anchored in(坚定地印刻在),符合要求的只有C,所以空格(i)选C项firmly anchored in(坚定地印刻在)。再看空格(ii),要求填入一个形容词,表示从现在的角度来看,柏拉图的概念具有的特征。柏拉图的概念:音乐与政治事实紧密相关,即音乐很重要。现在看来classical music is generally seen merely as a lifestyle accessory(古典音乐仅仅被看做一种生活方式的附属品),说明音乐不重要。从现在的角度来看,音乐只不过是附属品,是不重要的,所以柏拉图认为音乐重要的观点在当代看起来不正确,空格(ii)应填入一个表示某种观点不正确的词,所以选E项absurd(荒谬的)。再看空格(iii),仍然有人认为古典音乐对于文化的重要程度是________的,这里要求填入一个形容词,表示音乐对于文化的重要程度。空格(iii)所在句子的逻辑连接词为to be sure(的确,诚然),引导让步转折。转折的部分说音乐只是生活方式的附属品,即音乐不重要,让步的部分则应该强调音乐重要,所以空格(iii)应填入一个肯定音乐重要性的词,所以选H项profound(影响深远的)。
