I’m told that during an international game of chess (国际象棋), many beautiful moves could bc made on a chessboard. In a decisive【C1】______in which he was evenly matched with a Russian master【C2】______, Marshall found his queen under serious attack. There were several ways of【C3】______, and since the queen is the most【C4】______piece, spectators (观众) thought Marshall would naturally move his queen to【C5】______.
Deep in thought, Marshall used all his time to consider the【C6】______. He picked up his queen, paused, and placed it down on the most【C7】______square of all--a square from which the queen could be【C8】______by any one of three enemy pieces.
Marshall had sacrificed (牺牲) his queen--an unthinkable move. Everyone else was【C9】______.
Then the Russian, and the【C10】______, realized that Marshall had actually made a【C11】______move. It was clear that no matter how the【C12】______was taken, the Russian would soon be in a【C13】______position. Seeing this, the Russian admitted his defeat.
When spectators recovered from the【C14】______of Marshall’s dating, they showered the chessboard with money. Marshall had achieved【C15】______a very unusual and dating fashion--he had【C16】______by sacrificing the queen.
To me, it’s not【C17】______that he won. What counts is that Marshall had broken with standard【C18】______to make such a move. He had looked【C19】______the usual patterns of play and had been willing to consider an imaginative risk on the basis of his judgment and his judgment alone. No matter how the game【C20】______, Marshall was the winner.
【C3】
选项
A、support
B、attack
C、advance
D、escape
答案
D
解析
本题考查的是对上下文的理解。support意为“支持”,attack意为“攻击”,advance意为“前进”,escape意为“逃离”。上文提到马休发现他的王后处于被攻击的危险中,后文提到由于王后是最重要的一个棋子,由此可以推测,此处表示“躲避,逃脱”。故D正确。
