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.

参考答案

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befavor-ablefor意为“有利于……,适合于……”。
