    Reality is always a mutually agreed-upon social construct, a more or less common consensus about what is out there and what it all means to most people. Our shared ideas of truth, beauty, morality, politics, and the【C1】________we interpret the world and make decisions on how we act in it are determined by a complex process of education,【C2】________, acculturation, and assent that begins at birth. It is a cliche that human beings are out of touch with nature, and that more than a few of us are out of touch with reality. The fact is,【C3】________when we are in touch, it’s not with some given natural world or some【C4】________existing reality. Being in touch with nature means acting【C5】________learned response to the natural world. As a matter of fact, responding with awe in the【C6】________of natural beauty dates back only to the eighteenth century and became a major cultural event only in the nineteenth century. Before the late seventeenth century, people in Western Europe did not pay much attention to nature’s grandeur. A mountain range was something in the way. A complex shift in sociological and【C7】________responses occurred in the early eighteenth century and can be traced in its development through travel literature and then in poetry, fiction, and philosophy. By the mid-eighteenth century, wild, mountainous landscapes became the site of grand,【C8】________emotional response. The mountains had not, themselves, changed; cultural response had. The " Sublime", the effect of【C9】________transported before nature’s wildness and in front of representations of that wildness in painting and poetry, was born. With it came the nineteenth-century romanticism and attitudes toward the natural world that【C10】________remain with us. Reality is not an objective, geophysical phenomenon like a mountain. Reality is always something said or understood about the world.
【C8】
选项
答案H
解析 形容词辨析题。空格前为形容词grand，空格后为中心词emotional response“情感反应”，因此，空格处可能填入形容词与grand共同作emotional response的定语。备选形容词中，能够修饰 “情感反应”的词为overwhelming“难以抗拒的；压倒性的”，故H项为答案。该句意为：到了18世纪中叶，荒凉的山地景观成为宏大的、难以抗拒的情感反应的场所。
