问题 It is strange how words shape our thoughts and trap us at the bottom of deeply (i)____ canyons of thinking, their imprisoning sides carved out by the (ii)____ of past usage.

选项 A、cleaved…eruptions
B、rooted…flood
C、incised…river
D、ridged…ocean
E、notched…mountains

答案C

解析 空格(i):
- 方程等号:逗号,同义重复。
- 强词和对应:their指代canyons,后文说峡谷禁锢的内壁被雕刻而成,carved out指向空格,根据逗号取同,体现峡谷具有“被雕刻的”特征。cleaved劈开的,rooted根深蒂固的,incised被切开的,ridged隆起的,notched有凹口的。选项A、C和E合适。
空格(ii):
- 方程等号:by表示方式,前后取同。
-强词和对应:canyon的释义是a deep valley with steep rock sides and often a stream or river flowing through it。因此空格(ii)体现峡谷的内壁是被“和水有关的东西”雕刻而成。eruption喷发(错),flood洪水(对),river河流(对),ocean海洋(错),mountain山丘(错)。综合空格(i),答案选C。
