pp2第一套一个阅读题求解~

In Hardy‘s novels, various impulses were sacrificed to each other inevitably and often. Inevitably, because Hardy did not care in the way that novelists such as Flaubert or James cared, and therefore took paths of least resistance. Thus, one impulse often surrendered to a fresher one and, unfortunately, instead of exacting a compromise, simply disappeared. A desire to throw over reality a light that never was might give way abruptly to the desire on the part of what we might consider a novelist-scientist to record exactly and concretely the structure and texture of a flower. In this instance, the new impulse was at least an energetic one, and thus its indulgence did not result in a relaxed style. But on other occasions Hardy abandoned a perilous, risky, and highly energizing impulse in favor of what was for him the fatally relaxing impulse to classify and schematize abstractly. When a relaxing impulse was indulged, the style—that sure index of an author‘s literary worth—was certain to become verbose. (167 words) 5. Which of the following statements best describes the organization of the passage (―Thus…abstractly‖)? (A) The author makes a disapproving observation and then presents two cases, one of which leads to a qualification of his disapproval and the other of which does not. (B) The author draws a conclusion from a previous statement, explains his conclusion in detail, and then gives a series of examples that have the effect of resolving an inconsistency. (C) The author concedes a point and then makes a counterargument, using an extended comparison and contrast that qualifies his original concession. (D) The author makes a judgment, points out an exception to his judgment, and then contradicts his original assertion. (E) The author summarizes and explains an argument and then advances a brief history of opposing arguments. 首先是高亮的那个句子不是很明白在文中起什么作用。。（其实就是没看懂句子= =） 还有就是上面这道题。。 答案选A 我不明白为嘛是disapproving abservation 。。难道整篇文章都是负评价。。= =？ 那个lead to a qualification of his disapproval 也不是很懂。。和文章怎么对应的哎= =求解。。 先多谢各位！！

A desire （to throw over reality a light） that never was might give way abruptly to the desire （on the part of what we might consider a novelist-scientist to record exactly and concretely the structure and texture of a flower.)
括号里面形容的是两种desire
这句话 give way有两种解释，一种是 yield to, 杨鹏老版本长难句给的解释是 replace，取代，我感觉应该是第一种解释。

Thus, one impulse often surrendered to a fresher one and, unfortunately, instead of exacting a compromise, simply disappeared.

这是一个conclusion
你标亮的这句话的desire说的形容这种 impluse的。
下文用了两种情况来说明这种impluse

第一种

In this instance, the new impulse was at least an energetic one, and thus its indulgence did not result in a relaxed style.

第二种

But on other occasions Hardy abandoned a perilous, risky, and highly energizing impulse in favor of what was for him the fatally relaxing impulse to classify and schematize abstractly. When a relaxing impulse was indulged, the style—that sure index of an author‘s literary worth—was certain to become verbose.

第二种情况证明了作者所说的
one impulse often surrendered to a fresher one, and the old impulse disappeared.

Lead to a qualification of disapproval的意思是 support this disapproval or lend credence on this disapproval.

我这篇阅读也是这道题选错了

同问了

那句难句前两天的帖子还有人问的

长难句解析有的

zhouyu123031UID: 3181463

句子的主语是a desire,
谓语是give way to，宾语是the desire，
后面的on the part of...是修饰the desire，作状语从句。

give way to 让步的意思  throw over sth a light 阐明的意思

整句：一种从不曾得以实现的揭示现实的欲望，很有可能会突如其来地让位于另一种欲望，这就是一个我们可不妨将其视作小说家兼科学家的那种欲望，去精确无误地和具体地记录一朵花的结构和构造特征。

这几个点解题 unfortunately, instead of…… In this instance……But on other occasions……

第3句的unfortunately, simply
就说明disapprove的态度了

可是在give way to the desire 前面有一个 was

这个如何理解？give way to 已经是谓语动词

长难句翻译为 ＂不会取代后面的那个desire＂

was是因为全篇文章都是过去时态。
我觉得翻译成不会取代是不合适的。
give way to 应该是 yield to， 让步的意思。
这句话的意思是这两种desire并不能共存

我理解的就是让步的意思...
那个was...具体语法嘛，这题语法貌似有争议，有些人说杨鹏分析错了....whatever 召唤 @robin

弱弱地问 was give way to 是不是被动语态？:mad

是被动语态啊
主语是 desire
desire never was gave way to desire.
怎么也不可能是取代

yorkewooUID: 2496340

crazyrobin 发表于 2013-2-19 18:42
是被动语态啊
主语是 desire
desire never was gave way to desire.

如果这句话是前面那句＂thus...＂的具体解释的话

肯定应该翻译为  很可能会让位于另一种欲望

而不是 不会取代
