网考网参考答案：B
网考网解析：
[解析] It’s a trick that time and memory play on us: Comedy—like glamour or courage, is never what it used to be. The present may sometimes make us laugh the hardest, but we like to tell ourselves that the past makes us laugh the best. Today’s emphasis on physical comedy is perhaps a natural reaction to the more cerebral comedy of the past two decades. [分析] 对比表达的识别和判断。 原文将喜剧的过去和现在加以对比，听者可发现“The present…laugh the hardest, the past…laugh the best. Today…physical comedy, cerebral comedy of the past"。由此可判断，人们对喜剧的看法是有变化，而非一成不变的。因此，选项B的说法符合题意，是正确答案。 [解题关键] 掌握表示对立概念的表达结构和词语有助于迅速解题。如本文中使用的the present和the past；today和the past。 document.getElementById("warp").style.display="none"; document.getElementById("content").style.display="block"; 查看试题解析出处>>
