问题      A fine piece of music, a masterpiece of painting, or a first-rate play has the power to capture and hold out fullest and most concentrated attention.  We are completely wrapped up in it, and everything works out right. The music comes to the right close at the right time and in the right way. The play ends, not necessarily on a happy note, but in a way that seems inevitable (不可避免的) and appropriate. As we grow more and more aware of the painting, its parts seem to belong together and to be made for each other. We perceive harmony (和谐) in the object and feel harmony within ourselves.
    When the aesthetic (美学的) experience has ended, we often feel uplifted and refreshed. Our eyes and ears, our insight into other persons, or our understanding of moral values may be sharpened and refined. We may feel more at home with ourselves. Works of art have value for use in all these.
    It is this value that marks the difference between great art and simple entertainment. A work that is fairly easy to understand and appreciate takes little effort on our part. It may give us pleasure. But it does not involve our emotions or our attention at a deep level. It may take our minds off our troubles for a time, but it does not give us the spiritually enriching experience of vital and orderly design.
    To enjoy the value of works of art, we must be ready to give a great deal to them. The greatest works of music and poetry often present difficulties. We cannot expect to master them all at once, and we cannot always find what is worthy in them at a glance. It is possible to get some satisfaction out of music while reading a newspaper or peeling (削皮) potatoes. But we must listen with full attention before we can find the riches in great works of music.
Which of the following is true about the difference between great art and simple entertainment according the author?
选项 A、Great art is easy to understand while simple entertainment is not.
B、Simple entertainment gives us pleasure while great art never does.
C、Great art can sharpen ones’ insight into life and other people while simple entertainment can not.
D、Simple entertainment can make a person forget his trouble while great art can not.
答案C
解析 本题为细节推理题。第三段讲的是伟大的艺术作品和普通的文艺作品的区别。第一句“It is this value that marks the difference between great an and simple entertainment．”即：艺术杰作正是具有这样的价值才使它不同于一般的文艺作品。句中的 this value就是上文提到的特点，所以只有选项 C 在上文中提到。
