When he came to (1)_____ people into his system, he put them into a group called Homo and Linne’s hairless fellow humans are still known biologically as Homo sapiens. (2)_____ the group originally had a second member, Homo troglodytes. It lived in Africa, and the pictures show it to be covered (3)_____ hair.
Modern (4)_____ are not as generous as Linne in welcoming other species into Man’s lofty (5)_____, and the chimpanzee is now referred to (6)_____ Pan troglodytes.

One half of the puzzle has been (11)_____ for several years: the human genome was published in 2001.

A、instant
B、instinctive
C、constant
D、intuitive
答案
A
解析
本题是一道句子间语意逻辑推导题。本题的所在句和它后面的句子实际是因果关系。后面的句子是原因,前面的句子是结果。后面句子的含义是:"没有即刻就可以发现的基因"。这就暗示:就很久以来的问题而言,没有马上可以得到的(instant)答案。由此可以推导本题的正确答案应该是"instant"(立即的)。
