The history of responds to the work of the artist Sandro Botticelli
(1444--1510) suggests that widespread appreciation by critics is a relatively
recent phenomenon. Writing in 1550, Vasari expressed an unease with Botticelli's
work, admitting that the artist fitted awkwardly into his evolutionary scheme of
the history of art. Over the next two centuries, academic art historians defamed
Botticelli in favor of his fellows Florentine, Michelangelo. Even when
anti-academic art historians of the early nineteenth century rejected many of
the standards of evaluation adopted by their predecessors, Botticelli's work
remained outside of accepted taste, pleasing neither amateur observers nor
connoisseurs. (Many of his best paintings, however, remained hidden away in
obscure churches and private homes.) The primary reason for
Botticelli's unpopularity is not difficult to understand: most observers, up
until the mid-nineteenth century, did not consider him to be noteworthy, because
his work, for the most part, did not seem to these observers to exhibit the
traditional characteristics of fifteenth-century Florentine art. For example,
Botticelli rarely employed the technique of strict perspective and, unlike
Michelangelo, never used chiaroscuro. Another reason for
Botticelli's unpopularity may have been that his attitude toward the style of
classical art was very different from that of his contemporaries. Although he
was thoroughly exposed to classical art, he showed little interest in borrowing
from the classical style. Indeed, it is paradoxical that a painter of
large-scale classical subjects adopted a style that was only slightly similar to
that of classical art. In any case, when viewers began to
examine more closely the relationship of Botticelli's work to the tradition of
fifteenth-century Florentine art, his reputation began to grow. Analyses and
assessments of Botticelli made between 1850 and 1870 by the artists of the
Pre-Raphaelite movement, as well as by the writer Pater (although he,
unfortunately, based his assessment on an incorrect analysis of Botticelli's
personality), inspired a new appreciation of Botticelli throughout the
English-speaking world. Yet Botticelli's work, especially the Sistine frescoes,
did not generate worldwide attention until it was finally subjected to a
comprehensive and scrupulous analysis by Home in 1908. Home rightly demonstrated
that the frescoes shared important features with paintings by other
fifteenth-century Florentines--features such as skillful representation of
anatomical proportions, and of the human figure in motion. However, Home argued
that Botticelli did not treat these qualities as ends in themselves--rather,
that he emphasized clear depletion of a story, a unique achievement and one that
made the traditional Florentine qualities less central. Because of Home's
emphasis crucial to any study of art, the twentieth century has come to
appreciate Botticelli's achievements.

填空题It is hardly necessary to point out that we live in a world of increasing industrialization. While this process enables us to raise our standard of living at an ever-accelerating rate, it also leads to a corresponding growth of interdependence between the different regions of the world.
41) ______
What, then, is to be done? Although it is difficult to know where to begin to deal with such a large subject, the first step is perhaps to consider the main economic difficulties an underdeveloped or emerging region has to face.
42) ______ A number of quite common occurrences are therefore sufficient to cause immediate and serious interference with this export production- unfavorable weather conditions, plant or animal epidemics, the exhaustion of soil fertility or mineral deposits, the development of substitute products in the industrialized regions, etc. The sensitivity of the economy is greatly intensified in cases where exports are confined only to one or two products--"monocultures" as they are sometimes called.
43) ______ This also applies to the manufactured goods required to provide their populations with the "necessities of life". This economic structure makes it difficult for them to avoid being politically dependent on the countries which absorb their exports and provide their essential imports.
Since, under modern conditions, a rapid rise in population is a phenomenon closely associated with underdevelopment. This cause alone can subject the economy to severe and continuous stress.
44) ______ In the first place, to set up modern industries necessitates capital on a large scale, which only industrialized regions are able to provide; secondly, they lack the necessary trained manpower; thirdly, their industries -- when established -- are usually not efficient enough to compete with foreign imports, and any restriction on these imports is likely to lead to counter-action against their own exports.
From another point of view, it is necessary to bear in mind that there are invariably political, educational, social and psychological obstacles which tend to interfere seriously with any measures taken to deal with the economic difficulties outlined above. 45) ______
To conclude, it seems clear that if we are to succeed in solving the many inter-related problems of underdevelopment, only the fullest and most intelligent use of the resources of all branches of science will enable us to do so.
[A] For example, the economies of such countries are orientated primarily toward the production of raw materials, i. e. agricultural and mineral products; these are then exported to the industrialized countries.
[B] Given these conditions, it is easy to see that any permanent economic or political instability in one area is bound to have an increasingly serious effect upon the rest of the world. Since the main source of such instability is underdevelopment, it is clear that this now constitutes a problem of international dimensions.
[C] As far as "necessities of life" are concerned, they represent a concept which is continually being enlarged through the mass media of communication such as newspapers, films, the radio and advertising.
[D] Although it is obvious that industrialization is the key to development, it is usually very difficult for emerging countries to carry out plans of this nature.
[E] Being under-industrialized, these countries are largely dependent on imports to supply the equipment needed to produce the raw materials they export.
[F] To consider only one point: it is obviously useless to devote great efforts and expense to education, technical training and planning if, for psychological reasons, the population as a whole fails to turn theory into effective action.
[G] This sudden increase in the population of the underdeveloped countries has come at a difficult time. Even if their population had not grown so fast they would have been facing a desperate struggle to bring the standard of living of their people up.

填空题In the 1960s and 1970s there appeared 10 that explicitly concerns itself with the process of narration, writing, and composition.
填空题A. You may have to impress the company HR representatives as well. HR reps are typically trained to ask very specific and personal questions, like what salary you expect and what you"ve made in the past. They might ask you about your impressions of the company and the people who interviewed you. They might also ask if you have other offers. If so, chances are good that they are willing to compete for you. But if you say that you have other offers, be prepared to back it up with the who, what and when, because they might challenge you. The HR reps are also the people who will conduct or arrange reference and background checks. They might have the final say.
B. Besides management, you might also interview with one or more of your future coworkers. Regardless of the questions they ask, what they most really want to know is how well you"ll fit into the team, if you"ll cause them more work instead of less, and if they should feel threatened by you. When answering, be eager enough to show that you are a good team player and will pull your load, but not so eager as to appear to be a back-stabbing ladder climber!
C. Always research a company before you interview, and remember that attire, body language and manners count, big time. Try to avoid common mistakes. You may think that this is common sense, but crazy stuff really happens!
D. Job interviewing is one of the most popular career topics on the Web. But no career advisor can tell you exactly what to say during a job interview. Interviews are just too up-close and personal for that. About the best that career advisors can do, is to give you some tips about the typical questions to expect, so you can practice answering them ahead of time. But, while there are many canned interview questions, there are few canned answers. The rest is up to you.
E. Be prepared to attend a second interview at the same company, and maybe even a third or fourth. If you"re called back for more interviews, it means that they"re interested in you. But, it doesn"t mean you"re a shoo-in. Most likely, they are narrowing the competition, so keep up the good work!
F. To put you somewhat at ease, many interviewers really don"t know how to interview effectively. Frontline interviewers are typically managers and supervisors who have never been or are barely trained in interviewing techniques. They"re a little nervous too, just like you. Some don"t even prepare in advance. This makes it easier for you to take control of the interview, if you have prepared. But in controlling an interview, it"s not a good idea to try to dominate. Instead, try to steer it toward landing the job.
G. After interviewing, immediately send a thank you letter to each of your interviewers. It"s professional and expected, and might even be the deciding factor in your favor.
H. Remember, it"s a two-way street. It"s the employer"s chance to judge you, but it"s also very much your chance to judge the employer. In fact, if you handle yourself well and ask the right questions, you"ll put the interviewer in the position of selling the company to you. If this happens, you"re probably doing well.
