It’s easy to scare people about what’s in their food, but the danger is almost never real. And the【C1】________itself kills.
Take the panic【C2】________genetically modified organisms, or GMOs. Ninety percent of all corn grown in America is genetically modified now. That means it grew from a seed that scientists【C3】________by playing with its genes. The new genes may make corn grow faster, or they may make it less【C4】________to bugs so farmers can use【C5】________pest-killing chemicals.
This【C6】________some people. GMOs are "unnatural," they say. A【C7】________from the movie "Seeds of Death" warns that eating GMOs "causes multiple organ system【C8】________."
Michael Hansen of Consumer Reports sounds al-most as【C9】________when he talks about GMOs. He says, "You can’t control【C10】________you’re inserting that genetic information; it can have different effects【C11】________on the location."
Jon Entine of Genetic Literacy Project responds: "We’ve eaten about 7 trillion meals in the 18 years【C12】________GMOs first came on the market. There’s not one documented instance of someone getting so【C13】________as a cough."
Given all the fear from【C14】________and activists, you might be surprised to learn that most serious scientists【C15】________with him. "There have been about 2,000 studies," says Entine, and "there is no【C16】________of human harm in a major peer-reviewed journal."
That might be enough to reassure people if they knew how widespread and familiar GMOs really are—but【C17】________they think of GMOs as something strange and new, they think more tests are needed.
【C18】________people don’t worry about crops bred in【C19】________varieties for centuries without farmers having any idea exactly what genetic changes【C20】________
【C19】
选项
A、identical
B、random
C、adequate
D、scarce
答案
B
解析
本句的大概意思是:人们却并没有去担心那些用________品种培育出来的玉米和农作物。从逻辑上来说,人们该担心的是那些用“随机的”品种培育出来的作物。所以选B项random“随机的”。A项identical“相同的”、C项adequate“足够的”与D项scarce“稀有的”代入空格,分别表示“相同的品种”、“足够的品种”和“稀有的品种”,从常识看,均不会让人担忧。
