问题    By the time I finished high school, my interest in animals had grown, and I enrolled at a university to study biology. I learned soon enough that studying animals at this level was not in the animals’ best【C1】______ . I remember one midterm exam in【C2】______  each student was handed a large, freshly-killed frog and instructed to dissect (解剖) and mark a set of body parts. I looked at the【C3】______frog in front of me and was saddened that her life was【C4】______  away for such a slight reason.
   A year later, in the same lab where I dissected the frog, I performed a small act of animal operation.

The flies were then spread onto a piece of white paper【C7】______and counted. When the data collection was complete, the flies had no further use, and our instructions were to put them into a small glass dish of oil at the center of each desk, which was to be their final resting【C8】______.
   Once my little pile of flies had been counted, I pushed them off the edge of the paper. As we recorded our data, I kept one eye【C9】______  them. Within minutes the pile was humming (嗡嗡叫) as tiny legs and wings beat their way out of the ether fog. I was extremely excited as they took flight. That was my first step in refusing to conduct scientific research that treated nonhuman life in a (n)【C10】______way.
【C7】

选项 A、being examined
B、to be examined
C、being operated
D、to be operated

答案B

解析 考查非谓语动词和语义理解。果蝇被散布在一张白纸上被检查和计数。不定式表示将来,而且表示被动关系,所以用to be done。examine“检查”,符合句意,故选B。
