SARS — Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome — was【C1】______for the first time in February 2003 in Hanoi, 【C2】______since then has infected more than 1, 600 people in 15 countries, killing 63. At this【C3】______there are more questions than answers surrounding the disease.
Symptoms start【C4】______a fever over 100. 4 degrees F, chills, headache or body【C5】______Within a week, the patient has a dry cough, which might【C6】______to shortness of breath. In 10% to 20% of cases, patients require【C7】______ventilation to breathe. About 3.5% die from the disease. Symptoms【C8】______begin in two to seven days, but some reports suggest it【C9】______take as long as 10 days. Scientists are close to【C10】______a lab test to diagnose SARS.

选项
A、process
B、advance
C、progress
D、convert
答案
C
解析
语义衔接题。观察上下文,上文的a dry cough与下文的shortness of breath在表示疾病的程度上,有明显的先后关系。根据常识,由干咳到呼吸短促,是疾病恶化的一个症状。那么,现在需要的,就是一个能表示“恶化”意思的词。选项中,[B]advance“发展,向前”和[C]progress“发展,前进”可以表示“发展”。而[B]advance多表示“进步”,属于积极意义,疾病恶化显然不能用advance来说明,故只能选[C]progress.
