阅读36套中exercise3的第五题求解答

laoo

L5:”one impulse often surrendered to a fresher one and, unfortunately,instead of exacting a compromise, simple disappeared.”
这句话是讲one impulse以一种simple disappeared而不是exacting compromise的方式屈从于a fresher one.作者也暗含和对此屈从的态度即unfortunately.
接着作者给出L7:”A desire to … a flower.”解释上面L5。L7是一个长难句不懂可以查阅杨鹏难句教程。
然后又说”the new impulse was at least an energeticone, and thus its indulgence did not result in a relaxed style.”（注意作者的态度）
L13:”on the other occasions Hardy abandoned a perilous, risky, and highlyenergizing impulse in favor of what was for him the fatally relaxing impulse toclassify and schematize abstractly.”
作者又提出Hardy在某些场合abandoned 这种new impulse(即a perilous, risky, and highly energizing impulse)
大体思路是one impulse屈从new impulse,然后又放弃new impulse.
