36.ThehistoryofresponsestotheworkoftheartistSandroBotticelli(1444—1510)suggeststhatwidespreadappreciationbycriticsisarelativelyrecentphenomenon.Writingin1550,VasariexpressedanuneasewithBotticelli'swork,admittingthattheartistfittedawkwardlyintohisevolutionaryschemeofthehistoryofart.Overthenexttwocenturies,academicarthistoriansdefamedBotticelliinfavorofhisfellowsFlorentine,Michelangelo.Evenwhenanti-academicarthistoriansoftheearlynineteenthcenturyrejectedmanyofthestandardsofevaluationadoptedbytheirpredecessors,Botticelli'sworkremainedoutsideofacceptedtaste,pleasingneitheramateurobserversnorconnoisseurs.(Manyofhisbestpaintings,however,remainedhiddenawayinobscurechurchesandprivatehomes.)

TheprimaryreasonforBotticelli'sunpopularityisnotdifficulttounderstand:mostobservers,upuntilthemid-nineteenthcentury,didnotconsiderhimtobenoteworthy,becausehiswork,forthemostpart,didnotseemtotheseobserverstoexhibitthetraditionalcharacteristicsofthefifteenth-centuryFlorentineart.Forexample,Botticellirarelyemployedthetechniqueofstrictperspectiveand,unlikeMichelangelo,neverusedchiaroscuro.

AnotherreasonforBotticelli'sunpopularitymayhavebeenthathisattitudetowardthestyle.ofclassicalartwasverydifferentfromthatofhiscontemporaries.Althoughhewasthoroughlyexposedtoclassicalart,heshowedlittleinterestinborrowingfrom,theclassicalstyle.Indeed,itisparadoxicalthatapainteroflarge-scaleclassicalsubjectsadoptedastyle.thatwas.onlyslightlysimilartothatofclassicalart.

Inanycase,whenviewersbegantoexaminemorecloselytherelationshipofBotticelli'sworktothetraditionofthefifteenthcenturyHorentineart,hisreputationbegantogrow.AnalysesandassessmentsofBotticellimadebetween1850and1870bytheartistsofthePre-Raphaelitemovement,aswellasbythewriterPater(althoughhe,unfortunately,basedhisassessmentonanincorrectanalysisofBotticelli'spersonality),inspiredanewappreciationofBotticellithroughouttheEnglish-speakingworld.YetBotticelli'swork,especiallytheSistinefrescoes,didnotgenerateworldwideattentionuntilitwasfinallysubjectedtoacomprehensiveandscrupulousanalysisbyHomein1908.Homerightlydemonstratedthatthefrescoessharedimportantfeatureswithpaintingsbyotherfifteenth-centuryFlorentines—featuressuchasskillfulrepresentationofanatomicalproportions,andofthehumanfigureinmotion.However,Homearguedthat.Botticellididnottreatthesequalitiesasendsinthemselves—rather,thatheemphasizedcleardepletionofastory,auniqueachievementandonethatmadethetraditionalFlorentinequalitieslesscentral.

BecauseofHome'semphasiscrucialtoanystudyofart,thetwentiethcenturyhascometoappreciateBotticelli'sa-chievements.

16.knowledgeknowledge解析：前面講商家正確的分析市場的供需信息，知道是什么因素影響顧客的購買欲望。這就是他們利用的信息知識。故答案為knowledge。

17.ratherrather解析：此空所在句意為“用四個手指握筆而不是三個?！眗atherthan表示“而不是”。

18.withoutwithout解析：此處意為年輕人更喜歡沒有重大責任的簡單工作。所以此處應填“without”。

19.InsteadInstead解析：由本句句意“…修一臺烤箱或一臺收音機，買一臺新的、扔掉舊的更容易、更便宜…”可知，肯定是“不修”，又因為有介詞of，所以應填intead。insteadof意為“不做某事”，是固定短語。

20.againstagainst解析：guardagainst意為“防止，防范，警惕”，為固定短語，against，也可以省略。

21.farfar解析：可用于修飾“toolittle”的只能是far，意為“太少，特別少”。

22.whatwhat解析：這句話的意思是“這就是商家和賣者希望顧客們做的事情”，what引導的是一個表語從句，故答案為what。

23.rewardreward解析：通篇文章均是在講報酬與創(chuàng)造性的關系，此句意為“如果孩子們知道他們在為…工作，…?！憋@然，此空處應填“報酬”。

24.stillstill解析：本句意為“但是空氣污染，盡管它…是最危險的，但也只是幾種攻擊最基本生活功能的污染方式之一?！憋@然，可知此空應填“仍然”。

25.losinglosing解析：根據(jù)上下文的意思，很多年輕一代的日本人已經不再尊重父母，不再對家庭有責任感，所以這里用。losing表示“漸漸失去了”。所以此處應填“l(fā)osing”。

26.A解析：從第二段前兩句話可以看出，婦女被以能力和需要的理由勸離工廠，故A項正確。沒有足夠的工作給老兵不是由限制婦女工作時間的法律造成的，所以B項不正確。C項文中沒有提及。根據(jù)文章第三段可知婦女的健康不是改善了，而是下降了，故D項也不正確。

27.CC解析：上一段中提到的“myth”是有關家庭關系的問題，擔心家庭關系會因為老齡化問題而使親人之間疏遠。C中研究中心的倫理學家對這一問題進行
