Hollywood has a way of ____________ reality, thereby completely altering not only past events but our perception of these events. To take but one example, after watching Milos Forman’s Oscar-Winning Picture, Amadeus, audiences smugly walk away “knowing” the Italian composer Antonio Salieri sordidly did away with the divine genius Mozart. That such a story is at best a ____________ is, to them, not even a(n) ____________.
可以从smugly(沾沾自喜地)和“knowing”的双引号里看出来:
To take but one example, after watching Milos Forman’s Oscar-Winning Picture, Amadeus, audiences smugly walk away “knowing” the Italian composer Antonio Salieri sordidly did away with the divine genius Mozart.
另一方面,这句承接着首句completely altering not only past events but our perception of these events,是个example,也能帮助判断。
