In September, more than a dozen whales beached themselves in the Canary Islands. Rescuers tried to water down the whales and keep them cool. But all of them【C1】______ died.
Nearby, NATO naval forces were testing echo sounding devices meant to【C2】______ an enemy’s submarines, and public knowledge of the deaths ultimately came to strengthen suspicions of a link between whale distress and loud ocean noises.
The theory is that the mammals seek to escape the roar of the【C3】______, rush toward the surface and in some cases end up going ashore.
For decades, environmentalists have worked to reduce the undersea noise—usually with【C4】______ success, given the growing industrialization and militarization of the oceans. They have filed suits and waged letter-writing campaigns, including a recent petition that asks the United States Navy to【C5】______ its testing of underwater sound equipment.
The discovery by biologists in Hawaii that whales can decrease the sensitivity of their hearing to protect their ears from loud noise【C6】______ another dimension to the debate.
Michael Jasny, a senior policy analyst, called the research fascinating and said he hoped it would prove【C7】______ in protecting whale hearing from these threats.
But he characterized the finding as a work in progress that posed many【C8】______ questions.

"It’s important to understand that it’s【C10】______," he said of the proposed method. "It won’t be a silver bullet."
【C10】
选项
答案
O
解析
此处填入形容词作表语。下文的silver bullet字面意思是“银色子弹”,在文中指“良方”。空格处应与silver bullet语义相反,故填入limited“有限的”。useless“无用的”过于绝对,可排除。
