That todays students of American culture tend to(i)______classical music is understandable. In our own time, Americas musical high culture has degenerated into a formulaic entertainment divorced from the contemporary moment. Thus, to miss out on what our orchestras are up to is not to(ii)______much. In the late Gilded Age, however, music was widely esteemed as the "queen of the arts." Classical music was in its American heyday,(iii)______the culture at large.
选项
答案
C,D,I
解析
The "however" of the next-to-last sentence indicates that the author’s characterization of the relationship between classical music and popular culture during the Gilded Age contrasts with the current state of affairs. Since music was widely esteemed during the Gilded Age, it follows that it is viewed more negatively, or disregarded, during the current era. Of the choices for Blank(i), "ignore" is the only choice that conveys this sentiment; "promote" connotes the opposite, while "reinterpret" suggests a different sort of positive engagement with classical music that is otherwise unmentioned in the passage. The author characterizes the current disconnection between music and culture as understandable, and uses pejorative language("degenerated," "formulaic")to describe current classical music. Of the three choices for Blank(ii), "sacrifice" best conveys this dismissive attitude; "appreciate" would convey that those who forego orchestral concerts are indeed missing something worthwhile, while "malign" overstates the presumed level of feeling and activity of one who simply does not attend concerts. Since the lack of a connection between culture and classical music must contrast with the relationship during the Gilded Age, the answer to Blank(iii)is "centrally embedded in." Of the other two choices, "generally rejected by" would provide no contrast, while "antagonistic toward" suggests a relationship that would not explain why music was so widely esteemed.
Thus the correct answer is ignore(Choice C), sacrifice(Choice D), and centrally embedded in(Choice I).
