For the last fifteen or twenty years the fashion in criticism or appreciation of the arts have been to deny the existence of any valid criteria and to make the __1__words “good” or “bad” irrelevant, immaterial, and inapplicable. There is no such thing, we are told, like a set of standards first acquired through experience and __2__knowledge and late imposed on the subject under discussion. This has been a __3__popular approach, for it relieves the critic of the responsibility of judgment and the public by the necessity of knowledge. It pleases those resentful of disciplines, it __4__flatters the empty-minded by calling him open-minded, it comforts the __5__confused. Under the banner of democracy and the kind of quality which our forefathers did no mean, it says, in effect, “Who are you to tell us what is good or bad?” This is same cry used so long and so effectively by the producers of mass __6__media who insist that it is the public, not they, who decide what it wants to hear __7__and to see, and that for a critic to say that this program is bad and that program is good is pure a reflection of personal taste. Nobody recently has expressed this __8__　　philosophy most succinctly than Dr. Frank Stanton, the highly intelligent __9__president of CBS television. At a hearing before the Federal Communications Commission, this phrase escaped from him under questioning: “One man’s mediocrity __10__is another man’s good program”.

參考答案：

1 將have改為has。該句的主語 the fashion是單數.

2 將like改為as。such as 是固定搭配.

3 將late改為later。later和上文first對應.

4 將by改為of或者from。　relieve sb of/ from sth 是固定搭配, 意思為 “減輕某人(的負擔等)”

5 將him改為them。因為其先行詞為 the empty-minded,而 “the+adj/p.p” 表示一類人時,通常表示復數概念.

6 在same前加the。the same 表示 “唯一,獨一無二”的概念,因此必須加定冠詞.

7 將decide改為decides。該句的主語 the public 表示的是單數概念.,這一點從后面的代詞it 可以看得出來.

8 將pure改為purely。在這里purely作狀語,修飾謂語動詞,因此應使用副詞.

9 將most改為more。more than 搭配,引導出比較狀語從句.

10 將from去掉。escape在作 “被某人情不自禁地說出來”講時,是及物動詞,而只在作 “逃跑”講時,才時不及物動詞.
