高考英语二轮复习专题限时集训9词义猜测之推测单词短语句子的含义含解析
展开Nt all awards are as nble as the Nbel Prize,which is wrld-famus fr giving prizes t peple wh made prgress in literature,science,ecnmics and—perhaps mst imprtantly—peace,even thugh mst cuntries have a system fr recgnizing,hnring and rewarding peple wh have dne smething gd in their cuntries,there are nw hundreds f awards and awards ceremnies fr all kinds f things.
The Oscars are prbably the mst famus,a time fr the film industry t tell itself hw gd it is.The awards are nt nly fr films—nw there are als Grammies,Brits,the Mercury Prize and the MTV and Q awards fr music.In Britain,a writer wh wins the Bker prize,can expect t see their difficult,literary nvel hit the bestseller lists and cmpete with The Da Vinci Cde fr ppularity.The Turner Prize is an award fr a British cntemprary artist — each year it causes cntrversy by apparently giving lts f mney t artists wh d things like displaying their beds,putting animals in glass cases r—this year—building a garden shed.
Awards dn't nly exist fr the arts.There are nw awards fr Sprts Persnality f the Year,fr Eurpean Ftballer f the Year and Wrld Ftballer f the Year.This seems very strange — smetimes awards can be gd t give recgnitin t peple wh deserve it,r t help peple wh are n tight budget carry n their wrk withut wrrying abut finances,but prfessinal sccer players these days are nt shy f fund!
Why have all these awards and ceremnies appeared recently? Shakespeare never wn a prize,nr did Lenard Da Vinci.
Mst awards ceremnies are nw spnsred by big rganizatins r cmpanies.This means that nt nly the persn wh wins the award benefits frm it — but als the spnsrs.The MTV awards,fr example,are great fr publicizing nt nly music,but als MTV itself!
On the surface,it seems t be a “win-win” situatin,with everyne being happy,but let me ask yu a questin — hw far d yu think that publicity and marketing are winning here,and hw much genuine recgnitin f achievement is taking place?

Basically,hygge invlves creating a warm,csy atmsphere and enjying it with yur lved nes.Danish winters are lng and dark,s achieving hygge is particularly relevant during this seasn.A typical hygge activity during winter culd be enjying delicius hmemade fd and light-hearted cnversatin with friends — preferably in the warm glw f candlelight,r maybe sipping a glass f wine in the ht tub after a day spent skiing.
