The outbreak of swine flu that was first detected in Mexico was declared a global epidemic on June 11, 2009. It is the first worldwide epidemic【C1】________by the World Health Organization in 41 years.
The heightened alert【C2】________an emergency meeting with flu experts in Geneva that convened after a sharp rise in cases in Australia, and rising【C3】________in Britain, Japan, Chile and elsewhere.
But the epidemic is "【C4】________" in severity, according to Margaret Chan, the organization’s director general,【C5】________the overwhelming majority of patients experiencing only mild symptoms and a full recovery, often in the【C6】________of any medical treatment.
The outbreak came to global【C7】________in late April 2009, when Mexican authorities noticed an unusually large number of hospitalizations and deaths【C8】________healthy adults. As much of Mexico City shut down at the height of a panic, cases began to【C9】________in New York City, the southwestern United States and around the world.
In the United States, new cases seemed to fade【C10】________warmer weather arrived. But in late September 2009, officials reported there was【C11】________flu activity in almost every state and that virtually all the【C12】________ tested are the new swine flu, also known as (A) H1N1, not seasonal flu. In the U.S., it has【C13】________more than one million people, and caused more than 600 deaths and more than 6,000 hospitalizations.
Federal health officials【C14】________Tamiflu for children from the national stockpile and began【C15】________ orders from the states for the new swine flu vaccine. The new vaccine, which is different from the annual flu vaccine, is【C16】________ahead of expectations. More than three million doses were to be made available in early October 2009, though most of those【C17】________doses were of the FluMist nasal spray type, which is not 【C18】________for pregnant women, people over 50 or those with breathing difficulties, heart disease or several other【C19】________. But it was still possible to vaccinate people in other high-risk group: health care workers, people【C20】________infants and healthy young people.
【C4】
选项
A、moderate
B、normal
C、unusual
D、extreme
答案
A
解析
本填空考查形容词辨析。此形容词处于表语的位置,其被修饰成分是主语the epidemic,同时根据之后的in severity可判断出本题应选择一个形容词对疫情的严重程度进行定义。此后的原文信息中已经明确说明了疫情的严重程度,即:the overwhelming majority of patients experiencing only mild symptoms and a full recovery,mild(温和的)说明了疫情的严重程度不高。因此本填空的形容词就是选择一个与mild(温和的)意思差不多的复现词汇,最佳答案是A项moderate(温和的)。其他选项例如C项unusual(不寻常的)和D项extreme(极端的,极度的)是错误的。B项normal的意思是“正常的”,这个意思表达得不如moderate明确和准确,因为“正常的”并不同于“温和的”,比如有的疫情很严重才是正常的。
