问答：

A. Reconciling two different points of view about how art reflects

B. Criticizing a traditional method of interpretation

C. Tracing the development of an innovative scholarly approach

D. Describing and evaluating a recent critical approach

E. Describing a long-standing controversy and how it was resolved

选 D

描述以及评估一种近期出现的批评方法。

以前人们认为荷兰绘画的特点是写实，后来发现其中有很多象征意义，后者就是 recent critial approach，代表人物是 Eddy de Jongh 以及后面出现的 Brown 。

2. The author of the passage mentions bridles in the highlighted portion of the passage most likely in order to

A. Suggest that restraint was only one of the many symbolic meanings attached to bridles

B. Provide an example of an everyday, physical object that was not endowed with symbolic meaning

C. Provide an example of an object that modern critics have endowed with symbolic meaning different from the meaning assigned it by seventeenth-century Dutch artists

D. Provide an example of an object with symbolic meaning that was not always used as a symbol

E. Provide an example of an everyday object that appears in a significant number of seventeenth century Dutch paintings

选 D

句 9：not every bridle is an emblem of restraint (though many were indeed just that)

3. Which of the following best describes the function of the last paragraph(句 10 - 13) of the passage?

A. It provides specific applications of the critical approach introduced in the preceding paragraph

B. It present a caveat about the critical approach discussed in the preceding paragraph

C. It presents the research on which a theory presented in the preceding paragraph is based

D. It refutes a theory presented in the preceding paragraph and advocates a return to a more traditional approach

E. It provides further information about the unusual phenomenon described in the preceding paragraph

选 B

句 8 - 9 出现的三个 not every … 已经提示我们，把画上出现的所有元素都视为象征是不可取的，进入第三段，作者进一步明确指出，这样看待作品可能产生的后果，… fail to understand that the painting has a variety of possible meanings, …(句 10)。

可以认为这是一种 caveat 警告，告诫。

所以选 B 。

4. The passage suggests which of the following about emblem books in seventeenth-century Holland?

A. They confirm that seventeenth century Dutch painting depict some objects and scenes rarely found in daily life.

B. They are more useful than vernacular literature in providing information about the symbolic content of seventeenth-century Dutch painting.

C. They have been misinterpreted by art critics, such as de Jongh, who claim seventeenth century Dutch paintings contain symbolic meaning

D. They are not useful in interpreting seventeenth-century Dutch landscape painting.

E. They contain material that challenges the assumptions of the nineteenth-century critics about seventeenth-century Dutch painting.

选 E

其实它是一道细节题。题目所问的 emblem books 寓意画册，第一次出现在句 4：

How explicit and consistent the symbolizing process was intended to be is a much thornier matter, but anyone who has more familiarity than a passing acquaintance with Dutch literature or with the kinds of images used in illustrated books (above all emblem books) will know how much less pervasive was the habit of investing ordinary objects than of investing scenes with meaning that go beyond their surface and outward appearance.

只要对荷兰文学和图书(包括 emblem books)中所采用的图片有基本的熟悉，就知道多数是象征性的，而不是写实的。

In the late nineteenth century, art critics regarded seventeenth-century Dutch paintings as direct reflections of reality.

十九世纪的评论家认为荷兰画是对现实的直接反映，即写实的。

综合两部分，可以确定 E 正确。
