问题     The orangutan of Sumatra and Borneo shares 96.4 percentage of the (1)______
same genetic make-up as humans. These peaceful, red-hair primates spend (2)______
their days chowing down fruit, leaves and flowers from trees, along with (3)______

orangs keep busy grooming each other. Because they’re larger, the older

Mari is a very able orangutan. In fact, we don’t consider her handicapped,
but rather "handi-capable". She uses her chin to hoist herself up, uses her
feet as we would our hands, and she walks upright (or rolls when she wants
to get somewhere quickly). Initially, we were concerned that she might have (8)______
had difficulty maneuvering in a new environment, but she quickly proved us
wrong. She moves with such easiness and grace that sometimes we forget (9)______

选项
答案agitating — agitated
解析 -ing分词与-ed分词作定语的主要区别是前者带有主动意义，后者带有被动意义，那么an agitating state的意思就是“令人激动的状态”，an agitated state的意思是Mari的妈妈本身处在“激动的状态”中，所以应当用-ed分词。试比较：an excited look／an excit-ing look；a terrifying voice／a terrified girl。
