The human nose is an underrated tool. Humans are often thought to be insensitive smellers compared with animals, 【C1】______this is largely because, 【C2】______animals, we stand upright. This means that our noses are【C3】______to perceiving those smells which float through the air,【C4】______the majority of smells which stick to surfaces. In fact,【C5】______, we are extremely sensitive to smells, 【C6】______we do not generally realize it. Our noses are capable of 【C7】______human smells even when these are【C8】______to far below one part in one million.
Strangely, some people find that they can smell one type of flower but not another, 【C9】______others are sensitive to the smells of both flowers. This may be because some people do not have the genes necessary to generate【C10】______smell receptors in the nose. These receptors are the cells which sense smells and send【C11】______to the brain. However, it has been found that even people insensitive to a certain smell【C12】______can suddenly become sensitive to it when【C13】______to it often enough.
The explanation for insensitivity to smell seems to be that the brain finds it【C14】______to keep all smell receptors working all the time but can【C15】______new receptors if necessary. This may【C16】______explain why we are not usually sensitive to our own smells—we simply do not need to be. We are not【C17】______of the usual smell of our own house, but we【C18】______new smells when we visit someone else’ s. The brain finds it best to keep smell receptors【C19】______for unfamiliar and emergency signals【C20】______the smell of smoke, which might indicate the danger of fire.
【C14】
选项
A、ineffective
B、incompetent
C、inefficient
D、insufficient
答案
C
解析
考查形容词辨析。空格所在部分讲“嗅觉不敏感的原因可能是因为大脑发现,让所有嗅觉感受器一直工作______”,下一步便是分析“所有嗅觉感受器一直工作”的后果。C.inefficient“效率低的”,符合文意,即“所有嗅觉感受器一直工作效率不高”。incompetent“无能力的,不胜任的”,主语一般是人,不符合语法和文意。另外,所有嗅觉感受器一直工作也不会ineffective“没效果”或insufficient“不充分”,故排除。
