The beast’s【C2】______ is an object lesson in the dangers of giving idiots money. But it is not only our friends in the animal kingdom who are being destroyed by economic forces beyond their control. The world’s thinkers are now also a gravely【C3】______ species. And yet,【C4】______ the conceited creatures who share their fate, there is not even the most hasty plan in place to protect them.

选项
答案
D
解析
此处需填介词,跟空格后的名词组成介词短语作状语。连词yet表示一种对比转折关系,主句部分说“对于这些思想家,我们甚至连一个草率的保护计划都没有”,而人类起码对和思想家有相同命运的动物(即上文说的濒危动物)还会予以保护,词库中的unlike“与……不同”代入,能表示这种转折对比关系。
