Poetry doesn’t matter to most people. One has to wonder if
poetry has any place in the 21st century, when music videos and
satellite television offer daunting competition for poems, which
demand a good deal of attention and considerate analytic skills, as【M1】______
well as some knowledge of the traditions of poetry.
In the 19th century, poets like Scott, Byron, and Longfellow
had huge audiences around the world. Their works were best
sellers, yet they were cultural heroes as well. But readers had few【M2】______
choices in those days. One imagines, perhaps false, that people【M3】______
actually liked poetry. It provided them with narratives that
entertained and inspired. They gave them words to attach to their【M4】______
feelings. They enjoyed folk ballads, too. In the sense, music and【M5】______
poetry joined hands.
In the 20th century, something went to amiss. Poetry became【M6】______
"difficult". That is, poets began to reflect the complex of modern【M7】______
culture, its fierce disjunctions. The poems of Ezra Pound, Hilda
Doolittle and T.S. Eliot asked a lot of the reader, including a range
of cultural references to topics when even in the early 1900s had【M8】______
become little known. To read Pound and Eliot with easy, for【M9】______
instance, one needed some knowledge of Greek and Latin poetry.
That kind of learning had been fairly common among educated
readers in the past. The same could be said for most readers in the【M10】______
20th century—or today, when education has become more
democratized and the study of the classics has been relegated to a
small number of enthusiasts. [br] 【M7】
选项
答案
complex一complexities
解析
词汇错误。complex作名词时,表示“综合体,集合体,情结”,此处与modern culture搭配不合适。complexity意为“复杂,复杂性”,此处表明“现代文化的复杂”,符合上下文的语境,进一步说明20世纪以后诗歌开始变得难懂的情况。
