    There is a curious cliche that says pictures don’t lie. It is part of that greater cliché that says seeing is believing. Somehow a thing seen directly—or through a(n)【C1】________representation like a painting, a photograph, or a film—brings us closer to some actual reality. Words are too 【C2】________not things themselves; words are made-up sounds, developed throughout the life of a culture, represented by made-up letters, put together in a contrived 【C3】________ that everyone in a culture uses to communicate through a  decision  that  the   particular   words   will   refer  to   particular  things.  Language   is   clearly【C4】________ and not natural: It is human made and accepted with some variations throughout a particular  culture.  Every   English   speaker   understands   what   the   word   " food"   refers   to,   even【C5】________the particular kind of food that comes to mind may vary to each individual.  But seeing a thing seems to bring us something very close to the thing itself—to "reality". Things that are seen appear to be and even feel as if they are【C6】________; that is, they seem to be conveyed directly to us, not conveyed indirectly. Nothing stands in their【C7】________. They are true.
    But, in fact, an image, whether photographed, painted, or【C8】________, is not the thing itself. It is a representation of a mediated【C9】________, composed through the camera lens, or a computer, and transferred onto film or through binary code onto the computer screen, appearing to be the thing itself. But even when we acknowledge the【C10】________of optics, computer science, and the human hand and eye of the photographer in recording and developing the photographic image, we still haven’t considered all the mediation that goes on. An image of the thing is not the thing. [br] 【C6】

选项

答案 L

解析 形容词辨析题。分析句子结构可知,空格所在从句为主系表结构,且空格前为系动词are,因此空格处需要填入一个形容词充当句子的表语。分号后的句子是对空格所在句的解释。该句指出,它们似乎是直接传达给我们,而不是间接传达给我们的。因此,填入unmediated“无中介的,无媒介的”符合语境,故答案为L。
