Three blind men were exploring an elephant. The first of them, who
happened to reach the leg, described the elephant like something like a tree (1)______
trunk—high and of cylindrical shape.
The second one grasped the ear and described the elephant as something
like a blanket—flexible, thin, and cover a large surface. The third grasped (2)______
the trunk and therefore shaped an image of a long and flexible pipe-shaped (3)______
object like a hose.
For a long time they are arguing about the right conception of the elephant. (4)______
We cognitive scientists are often in the role of those blind re
searchers trying to understand human cognition. Since it is a huge and
complex object of study, each of us approaches to it from a certain (5)______
perspective and studies only a tiny bit of it. Although we do not mis
represent the whole of cognition as the particular object of study, we (6)______
tend to think of mechanisms that could explain the tiny fraction we
have focused. To continue the elephant story, when "trunk specialists" (7)______
observe the fluid that comes out when the trunk is cut, they tend to hy
pothesize it is an olfactory secretion. "Leg specialists" also observe a
fluid coming out when the leg is cut but have a very different hypoth
esis about it—it must be some filling of the leg. The fact this fluid is (8)______
one and the same in all cases (blood) and has the same function can be
discovered only when these scientists come together and consider the
elephant as the whole. They need to explore the interactions between (9)______
varied parts and to postulate general principles and systems. (10)______
(6)
选项
答案
as — with
解析
这一题的错误较难发现,需要考生真正理解整个句子。misrepresent的意思是“曲解或错误地代表”,它的确可以和介词as搭配, “misrepresent…as”的意思是“把……曲解为(错误地表达为)……”,如:“The film misrepresented the protagonist as arrogant andbullying.”那么原文中的句子说“把人类认知的整体面貌曲解为某一个特别的研究对象”,这样我们就发现这个句子不合理。其实作者想要表达的意思是“用某一个特别的研究对象来错误地代表人类认知的整体面貌”,所以这里应该用介词with而不是as。
