问题     The West has begun to take more notice of the East.
    The fifth【C1】______of an enormous【C2】______reassessing the Chinese contribution to science and technology is to be published next year. The first volume,【C3】______was published twenty years ago,【C4】______the tone of the whole work. In it, evidence was given to show that many inventions which【C5】______, western historians had claimed for Europe, were made【C6】______in China. The attempt to rewrite the intellectual history of the world was not received【C7】______protest by some reputable historians.【C8】______, the evidence that has been presented so far in the first four volumes has persuaded many historians who were【C9】______at first. China’s invention of paper, printing, the magnetic compass and gunpowder【C10】______disputed, but this new history has added【C11】______bridge design, mechanical clocks, paddleboats and many【C12】______inventions to the list.
    In the four volumes published so far no attempt has been made to explain【C13】______China has not kept up with the West in science and technology in modern【C14】______. It is probable that the answer【C15】______in the social and economic history of China, where a static society【C16】______a relatively benevolent regime of scholar-gentry【C17】______the potentially revolutionary and dynamic society of the West at the end of the Middle Ages. In recent years, the Chinese government has been making every effort to【C18】______the West again, and there is【C19】______doubt that the gap is being【C20】______year by year. But will China avoid the West’s mistake?
【C2】
选项 A、work
B、works
C、working
D、worked
答案A
解析 语法题。本句的主谓语(为系表结构)分别为空格中的词汇和is，因此，选项应为单数或不可数名词。另外，volume限制了其意为书籍类，选项work可作“著作”讲，常用复数形式works，但也可用a work。本句中出现an(enoitnous)，因此只能选work。works“著作”，指作家、画家等被收集为或看作一个整体的作品，如：the works of Shakespeare莎士比亚的作品。worked为动词work“工作”的过去式，working为现在分词，它们的含义都与书籍无关，因此不能选。
