Even the Saudis—or rather, the small number of men who actually rule their troubled country—are giving ground in the struggle for women’s rights. For sure, the recommendations (1)_____ this week to Crown Prince Abdullah at the end of an (2)_____ round of "national dialogue" concentrating on the role of women were fairly tame. In the reformers-versus-reactionaries (3)_____ test of whether women should be allowed to drive cars (at present they cannot do so in the kingdom, nor can they travel unaccompanied, by whatever (4)_____ of motion), the king was merely asked to" (5)_____ a body to study a public transport system for women to facilitate mobility". (6)_____ mention, of course, of the right to vote—but then that has been (7)_____ to men too, though local elections, on an apparently universal franchise, are supposed to be held in October.

It is not just in Saudi Arabia that more rights for women are being demanded (9)_____ across the whole of the Arab and Muslim world. The pushy Americans have made women’s rights part of their appeal for greater democracy in (10)_____ they now officially call the "broader Middle East", to include non-Arab Muslim countries such as Iran, Turkey and even Afghanistan.

选项
A、lonely
B、solo
C、alone
D、logo
答案
C
解析
lonely孤独的;寂寞的、solo独奏;独唱;单飞、alone仅仅;只有、logo标识。本题是一道语意逻辑推导题。本题所在句的前一句(即尾段倒数第二句)是一个倒装句(由"never"一词引导),该句的大意是:"阿拉伯世界的女权以前从未如此激烈地争论过"。本题所在句(即尾段尾句)是对其上一句(尾段倒数第二句)的总论,其大意是:"仅仅这一点就是欣喜的理由"。由此可以推导出本题的正确答案应该是"alone"(仅仅)。在解题时一定要注意上下句之间的语意连接。
