问题 Why is the author talking about those examples in paragraph 1?
What does the word "Epicurean" (Para. 3 Line 5) most probably means in the text?
选项 A、Devoted to the pursuit of pleasure.
B、An inclination toward literal truth.
C、Unselfish concern for the welfare of others.
D、Romantic quality or spirit in thought.
答案A
解析 词义题。考查我们在上下文中推测词义的能力；Epicurean作为一个大写首字母的单词，我们很容易从原文中找到它，在原文中就有对这个词的直接解释“Eat， drink，and be merry”这个意思和中文的“吃喝玩乐”几乎是完全对应的关系，分析四个选项，A项表示的是享乐主义；D项表示的是现实主义；C项表示的是利他主义的；D项表示的是浪漫主义的。所以我们选择A项。
