问题
The proposal to lay a telegraph cable from Europe to America made oceanographic studies take on a(n) ______.
"Defied" in the 5th paragraph probably means" ______".
选项
A、doubted
B、gave proof to
C、challenged
D、agreed to
答案
C
解析
defied是defy的过去式。要准确地推测它的词义,必须完全读懂defied前后部分的意思:前一部分是说“从海底捞出的电缆上覆盖着各种各样的生物”,后一部分是说“当时的科学观点认为海洋深处是没有生命的”。由此可见,前一部分的“事实”(...,a fact which...)是“批驳”后一部分的“观点”。所以答案是C.challenged(向……挑战,指责)。
