As the world excitedly greeted Snuppy, the first cloned dog, commentators celebrated our cleverness. Many feel proud that our age is marked by technological【S1】______. But an article in British newspaper The Observer recently said true innovation has【S2】______from our society.
The writer was Peter Watson, author of the book Ideas — A History from Fire to Freud. Watson began: "The year 2005 can’t begin to compete with 1905 in terms of【S3】______innovations."
"Writing a history of ideas over the past three ears, I have been【S4】______time and again by the fact that, contrary to what we tell ourselves all the time-on TV, in newspapers and magazines, in【S5】______and in government propaganda — our present world is nowhere near as【S6】______and innovative as it thinks it is, certainly in comparison with past ages."
"Yes, we are dazzled by mobile phones, cameras, digital TV, and the www, by laser- guided surgery and bombs, by DNA fingerprinting, and now by cloning. These are not【S7】______things but do they change the way we think in important — in fundamental — directions?"
Watson quoted Richard Southern, Oxford University historian, who died last year: "Southern thought the most interesting times in history were 1050—1250 and 1750—1950."
"Each of these periods transformed our understanding of ourselves【S8】______."
"But what great ideas or transformations have been【S9】______in the half-century since19507" Watson asked, pointing out that except for a few innovations such as the Internet, most scientific research【S10】______modifies previous studies.
A)rarely B)introduced C)merely D)intimate E)distributed
F)important G)advances H)statistics I)radically J)struck
K)disappeared L)small M)interesting N)advertising O)pessimistic [br] 【S9】
选项
答案
B
解析
此处需要一个动词的过去分词。根据其搭配的宾语“ideas or transformations”,可确定答案为introduced。“what great ideas or transformations have been introduced"意为“引入了什么重大的思想成果和变革。”本句意为:但是自1950年以来的半个世纪引入了什么重大的思想成果和变革?
