Discussion
Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blanks.
In the history of Western aesthetics, the subject ________ that received attention ranged from natural objects and phenomena, built structures, utilitarian objects and human actions, to what is ________ regarded as the fine arts. However, beginning with the 19th century, the discourse has become increasingly focused on the fine arts. This narrowing ________ occurred despite the prominence of the aesthetic attitude theory in modern aesthetics, according to which there is virtually no ________ to what can become a source of aesthetic experience.
Answer: C
'Matters', 'today', 'attention' and 'limit' are the best fit. The 'subject matters' that received attention covers natural objects to the arts, 'what is regarded today as the fine arts' sets the earlier broad range against the present, the narrowing of 'attention' to the fine arts is what happened, and the theory says there is no 'limit' to what can become a source of aesthetic experience.
'Experts', 'tomorrow', 'intention', 'down' and 'wall' do not fit these slots in meaning or in grammar.
