He is that 【C2】______bird, a scientist who works independently【C3】______any institution. He helped popularize the idea that some diseases not【C4】______thought to have a bacterial cause were actually infections, which aroused much controversy when it was first suggested.
【C5】______he, however, might tremble at the【C6】______of what he is about to do.

A、missions
B、fortunes
C、interests
D、careers
答案
D
解析
考查名词辨析。本句大意为“正如他们中的精英,包括一些世界知名的科学家的______所______的”。贡献不可能仅仅是财富等物质的东西,在这里精英人物一定是通过比较深远的东西为世界做贡献,因此答案选D.careers“事业”。missions“使命,任务”,fortunes“财富,运气”,interests“利益,兴趣”,均不符合题意。
