问题     Most people hate rock music. While I am not an (1)_____ or biased person by nature, two (2)_____ and striking personal experiences of rock music (3)_____ the past two weeks have persuaded me that it has become a duty for those of us with enough common (4)_____ to see its potential dangers to point them out. My first experience—perhaps a (5)_____ one, but highly symptomatic—was the realization that if I spoke to my teenage son when he was listening to rock music through headphones, he replied in an (6)_____ loud voice, as if there was something wrong with his hearing. The second (7)_____ when I went with him to a "concert" and witnessed for myself what these affairs are like.
    (8)_____ I went to that concert, my first and assuredly my last, I had always (9)_____ the "live-and-let-live" attitude that rock music was simply not my (10)_____ but that other people had every fight to enjoy it if it was theirs. But what I saw and heard (11)_____ me that we are allowing something very powerful to take (12)_____ of the younger generation today. (13)_____, I noticed such collective madness, brought about by the noise (14)_____. But secondly, and far more dangerously, I observed that after a time everyone was (15)_____ by the noise, and gave up his/her individuality. In the end I was in the middle of a (16)_____ crowd who clapped and stamped and (17)_____ around like monkeys. It was the most degrading human spectacle (18)_____ I have ever had the (19)_____ to witness, and I seriously believe that in time to come our present younger generation would thank us if we managed to put a (20)_____ to it now.


选项 A、lifeless
B、vivid
C、energetic
D、lively

答案B

解析 词汇辨析题。从原文可以看出,这里作者是想表达"过去两周与摇滚乐的接触让自己有了何种看法"之意。personal experiences前的一个修饰词是striking(引人注目的),本题处要求填入一个与 striking并列,且能够修饰experiences的形容词。vivid意为"生动的,栩栩如生的",vivid personal experiences表达"生动的个人经历"之意,与striking可以构成并列关系,表示这种经历使人印象深刻,历历在目。lifeless意为"无生气的,乏味的",从语义关系上来看,lifeless与striking是对比关系,不能构成并列关系;energetic意为"精力旺盛的,有力的",通常用于修饰人,不修饰物,不能用作experiences的定语;lively意为"活泼的,生气勃勃的",也不能修饰experiences。
