1．【中文释义】尽管很多十九世纪的俄罗斯作曲家支持新出现的民族风格，但其他作曲家并不放弃传统的俄罗斯音乐风格，相反扩增了传统西欧浪漫音乐语言的数量。

【解题分析】many Russian composers和other composers构成对比，故上句为 contributed to emerging national style 简单理解为“支持新事物”，而下句为idiomatic Russian musical elements 简单理解为"传统的老的事物“，与上句对比，可以选c,d。第二空格是分隔结构，重复前文的”不反对老事物“，又由于它的宾语是”traditional musical vocabulary"故应该填“支持老事物”以重复前文，答案选d。请注意原文中的emerging ,idiomatic,traditimal的三次转换。

【重点词条】idiomatic 1: of, relating to, or conforming to idiom 2: peculiar to a particular group, individual, or style —— id.i.o.mat.i.cal.ly adv —— id.i.o.mat.ic.ness n

2．【中文释义】因为画家阿尔伯特.皮郝姆.雷达沉浸在他对完美的追求中，所以他很少对一幅画满意，总是在同一张帆布上创作出同一个场景的无休无止的不同表达，一个覆盖着另外一个。

【解题分析】第二空格后为分隔结构，重复第二空格的内容，意为一次又一次地重新画一个场景，可以得出他对刚完成的画立刻不满意，又重新画一遍这个推论，故选a。

【重点词条】obsess obsessus, pp. of obsidere to frequent, besiege, fr. ob- against + sedere to sit——more at ob-, sit] vt (1531): to haunt or excessively preoccupy the mind of ~ vi: to engage in obsessive thinking: become obsessed with an idea

3.【中文释义】客观公正的标准可以起到对医生的保护伞的作用，为他们提供当遭受不公正的误诊控告时的保护措施。

【解题分析】providing是分隔结构，重复前文它的逻辑主语是objectively set standards 故可以理解为“客观的衡量标准为医生提供了一个”。请注意空格动词的宾语是unjustified malpractice.正好出现了“unjustified”这个objective的反义词。故问题迎刃而解，客观公正的标准当然反对不公正的指控，故选e。

【重点词条】claim 1 a: to ask for esp. as a right <~ed the inheritance> b: to call for: require c: take 16b 2: to take as the rightful owner 3 a: to assert in the face of possible contradiction: maintain <~ed that he'd been cheated> b: to claim to have c: to assert to be rightfully one's own <~ed responsibility for the attack>

4．【中文释义】尽管报纸的评论无精打采，这次戏剧演出却被热情的观众们从被人遗忘中拯救出来，这些观众的洞察力总是强于那些评论家。

【解题分析】第二个空格的by 短语是一个常见的解题点，热情的听众永远热情，当然不会淡忘这部分作品，故可选a,c,e。后半句的比较结构实际上就在提示着评论家和观众是对立的，所以第一空格填评论家们的态度，当然应该填不好的态度，c正确。

【重点词条】acumen n [L acumin-, acumen, lit., point, fr. acuere] (ca. 1580): keenness and depth of perception, discernment, or discrimination esp. in practical matters: shrewdness syn see discernment

lukewarm 1: moderately warm: tepid 2: lacking conviction: halfhearted —— luke.warm.ly adv —— luke.warm.ness n

5.【中文释义】爱和傲慢的情绪通常会在同一人身上发现，但却毫无共同之处。即使不是相互摧毁，它们通常也是相互削弱的。

【解题分析】having little in common是其后句子的句首状语，应该修饰谓语动词，故选d ，答案b错在和紧随其后的分隔相冲突。

【重点词条】embrase 1 a: to clasp in the arms: hug b: cherish, love 2: encircle, enclose 3 a: to take up esp. readily or gladly <~ a cause> b: to avail oneself of: welcome 4 a: to take in or include as a part, item, or element of a more inclusive whole b: to be equal or equivalent to ~ vi: to participate in an embrace syn see adopt, include —— embrace.able adj —— em.brace.ment n —— em.brac.er n —— em.brac.ing.ly adv 2embrace n (1592) 1: a close encircling with the arms and pressure to the bosom esp. as a sign of affection: hug 2: grip, encirclement 3: acceptance
