"The old verities" labeled by William Faulkner (Line 2, Para. 4) must refer to ______ .
A.the past ways for ruling a society
B.the society"s established virtues
C.the traditional doctrines and justice
D.the out-of-date moral conducts

参考答案

正确答案:B
解析:语义理解题。根据第四段的“the old verities”,“the words that construct and implement the daily moral grind”,以及第五段第一句话“These are words like duty,honor,service,integrity,pity,pride,compassion and sacrifice,plus the clear demonstration that violence is wrong”可知福克纳指的是社会公认的美德。选项A 不合题意;选项C 是干扰项,后面提到了justice,但是选项中的传统教义不合适;虽然说是古老的真理教诲,但也不是过时的道德准则,所以排除选项D 。
