Looking back on my childhood, I am convinced that naturalists are born and not made. Al though we were all brought up in the same way, my brothers and sisters soon【S1】______their pressed flowers and insects. Unlike them, I had no ear for music and languages. I was not an【S2】______reader and I could not do mental arithmetic.
Before World War I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary. I have only the【S3】______memory of the house we lived in and of my room and my toys. But I do have a crystal-clear memory of the dogs, the farm animals, the local birds, and above all, the insects.
I am a naturalist, not a scientist. I have a strong love of the natural world and my【S4】______had led me into varied investigations. I love discussing my【S5】______topics and enjoy burning the mid night oil while reading about other people’s observations and【S6】______Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind. Suddenly you fancy you see the answer to the riddle, because it all seems to fit【S7】______together. This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books, which some might【S8】______with the title of scientific research.
But curiosity, a keen eye, a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist. A scientist requires not only【S9】______but hard training, determination and a goal. A scientist, up to a point, can be made. A naturalist is born. If you can【S10】______the two, you get the best of both worlds.
A)combine I)abandoned
B)connect J)honor
C)self-discipline K)disposed
D)enthusiasm L)modest
E)regulations M)favorite
F)discoveries N)early
G)dim O)perfectly
H)eventually
【S3】
选项
答案
G
解析
此处需要一个形容词作定语。根据下文But后的内容,可知空白处应与crystal-clear(一清二楚的)形成反义关系,所以答案应该是dim。dim memory意为“模糊的记忆”。
