【C6】

选项 A、abundance
B、incidence
C、prevalence
D、recurrence

答案C

解析 本题考查名词辨析。空格处填入的名词说明“暴力”的特点。A项abundance是褒义词,指“大量,丰富,充裕”,它不和violence搭配。B项incidence指“发生率,影响范围或程度”,是中性词,常常由形容词修饰后表示褒贬,如an area with a high incidence of crime(犯罪率高的地区)。C项prevalence指“普遍,盛行”,放入文中指“媒体里暴力的盛行”。D项recurrence表示“重现,复发”。由上下文可知,美国人应担忧媒体中暴力的“盛行”,而非“发生率”或“重现”,因此,C项是正确答案。
