问题 Wolosky claims that Ella Wheeler Wilcox joined other women poets such as Julia Ward Howe, Frances Harper, and Charlotte Perkins Gilman in critiquing materialism and possessive individualism. Wolosky’s description (i)________the poetry of Gilman, Howe, and Harper, but it is not entirely (ii)________in the case of Wilcox, who hardly (iii)________the materialism of her time. Rather, Wilcox seems to have embraced the amassing of private property.
Blank (i)        Blank (ii)    Blank (iii)
A. fits          D. apt        G. reflected
B. conflates     E. puzzling   H. countenanced
C. misinterprets F. uncommon   I. impugned

选项

答案A,D

解析 通读题干,发现空格(iii)最好做。空格(iii)表示的是威尔科克斯这个人不会怎么样那个时期的物质主义,而是会接受私人财富的积累(have embraced the amassing of private property),所以空格(iii)表示这个人不会反对物质主义,因此应当选择I,这里注意在谈及materialism与property的时候,不要把materialism理解成“唯物主义”,应理解成“物质主义”。单独解释一下materialism:the theory or doctrine that physical well-being and worldly possessions constitute the greatest good and highest value in life。空格(ii)表示的是沃罗丝姬的描述并不怎么样威尔科克斯。那么沃罗丝姬的描述是这些人都在批评materialism和possessive individualism,然后空格(iii)表明威尔科克斯并没有去反对物质主义,所以空格(ii)应该体现出这种描述并不适合于威尔科克斯,选择D。空格(ii)之前的but表示转折,空格(ii)说对于威尔科克斯不合适,那么对于其他人来说应该是合适的,所以空格(i)应当选择A。思路二:先做前两空也是可以的,前两空表示的是Wolosky’s description怎么样了Gilman,Howe,and Harper的诗歌,但是不完全怎么样了威尔科克斯,注意到这里两个空格间出现了however和not,所以这里负负得正,空格(i)和空格(ii)一定是一对同义词,所以选择AD。
