    B

    an anticipation of phrase

    C

    the originality of the thought

    D

    正确答案: B
    解析:
    语义的理解和判断。根据录音中提到的“so that we are led to foresee, to expect, and to welcome the successive phrase. The pleasure may be heightened by…”,可知在艺术家的引导下,我们会去预测,期待并乐于接受后续语句,从而得到一种愉悦。而这种愉悦可能会因……得以加强。由此可知,对文学的享受来自于对后续语句的期待。因此选项B为正确答案。
    【录音原文】
      Music and literature, the two temporal arts, contrive their pattern of sound in time; or, in other words, of sounds and pauses. Communication may be made in broken words, the business of life be carried on with substantive alone; but that is not what we call literature; and the true business of the literary artist is to plait or weave his meaning, involving it around itself; so that each sentence, by successive phrases, shall first come into a kind of knot, and then, after a moment of suspended meaning, solve and clear itself. In every properly constructed sentence there should be observed this knot or hitch; so that we are led to foresee, to expect, and to welcome the successive phrase. The pleasure may be heightened by an element of surprise, as, very grossly, in the common figure of the antithesis, or with much greater subtlety, where an antithesis is first suggested and then deftly evaded. Each phrase, besides, is to be comely in itself; and between the implication and the evolution of the sentence there should be a satisfying equipoise of sound; for nothing more often disappoints the ear than a sentence solemnly and sonorously prepared, and hastily and weakly finished. Nor should the balance be too striking and exact, for the one rule is to be infinitely various; to interest, to disappoint, to surprise, and yet still to gratify; to be ever changing, as it were, the stitch, and yet still to give the effect of an ingenious neatness.

    B

    C

    The author read a lot of books about the natural world and the oil industry.

    D

    The author spent a lot of time working on riddles.


    正确答案: B
    解析:
    细节题。A项属于无中生有,文中只提到“博物学家”是天生的,而“科学家”是后天培养的。并没有说天生的博物学家能否成为科学家。B项可以根据第一段的“Unlike them,I had no ear for music and languages,1 was not an early reader and I could not do mental enthusiastic”得出。C项属于对文章的误解。第三段的“burning the midnight oil”是“开夜车,点灯夜读”的意思,而非“石油工业”。D项迷惑性较大。它是对第三段“Suddenly you fancy you see the answer to the riddle”的误解。文章原意是作者通过大量的调查探索,会有所顿悟,故而解开谜团,而不是花大量的时间解谜。故B项为正确答案。
