    Probably the most popular mirage picture is one of a lake in a【C2】______desert. There may even be the appearance of【C3】______breaking on the shore.

    A similarly B. supposedly C. puzzling D. waves

    I. breaking J. waterless K. liberty L. picture
    M. object N. approaches O. humble [br] 【C3】
选项
答案 D
解析 此处应为名词。本句是对上一句提到的海市蜃楼现象的进一步说明，表明不但能在沙漠中看到湖，甚至连湖里的东西都能看清楚，联系breaking on the shore，可以推断waves为本题答案。
