Water
From the beginning, water has furnished man with a source of food and a highway to travel upon. The first civilizations arose(51)water was a dominant element in the environment, a challenge(52)man’s ingenuity. The Egyptians invented the 365-day calendar in response to the Nile’s annual flooding. The Babylonians,(53)were among the most famous law-makers in ancient times, invented laws(54)water usage. Water inspired the Chinese to build a 1,000-(55)canal, a complex system which, after nearly 2,500 years, remains still practically(56)and still commands the astonishment of engineers. But(57)never found complete solutions to their water problems. The Yellow River is also known as "China’s Sorrow"; it is so unpredictable and dangerous(58)in a single flood it has caused a million(59). Floods slowed the great(60)of the Indus River Valley, and inadequate drainage ruined(61)of its land. Today water dominates man(62)it always has done. Its presence continues to(63)the location of his homes and cities; its violent variability can(64)man or his herds or his crops; its routes links him(65)his fellows; its immense value may add to already dangerous political conflicts. There are many examples of this in our own time.
选项
A、cause
B、violate
C、kill
D、damage
答案
C
解析
中所说,cause是使役动词,只说“...can cause man. or his herbs or his crops”句子不完整。violate一词的后面可以跟a rule,a law,但不能是man。damage一词的后面常跟物质的东西,如a house,a village,crops等,也不能接man。所以只有kill一词是正确的选择。注意kill可以跟“活着的东西”,所以kill his crops在语义上完全成立。又如:The cold weather has killed the flowers.
