问题     Aesthetics is that region in the land of science whose borders of
investigation are known as experiences of beauty, and whose soil is
particularly favorite for the production of a crop called art works. This【M1】______
land of beauty and art has been visited numerous times by intrepid
explorers, the aestheticians, who have given accounts more or less
details, but always enthusiastic, of their discoveries. In most instances,【M2】______
however, the explorers met a cold reception on their returning home,【M3】______
while the reports of their findings were neither scorned or severely【M4】______
criticized. Now since we are about to venture into this apparently
hazard region, it will be most advisable that we acquaint ourselves【M5】______
with that has been and is being said about the aestheticians and their【M6】______
findings, examine the charges, and see who is in fault, the explorers【M7】______
or their critics. There must be a misunderstanding somewhere, for
among the explorers are some of the greatest minds of the ages, while
their critics are men whose serious interest in art is beyond the【M8】______
question. We must take this step at the very outset of our own
adventure in order to fortify ourselves for several risks and hazards【M9】______
that a mental journey of this sort entails. Our purpose, then, in
examining the charges of the critics against the aestheticians is
simply find out the better what the aestheticians are truly trying to do【M10】______
for us. An examination of the charges will reveal to us the nature and
objectives of aesthetics as a field of study and investigation.
【M1】
选项
答案favorite→favorable
解析 词汇错误，易混词误用。favorite意为“最喜爱的”；favorable意思是“合适的，有帮助的”。根据此句意思，favorite应改为favorable，短语be favor-able for意为“有利于……，适合于……”。
