This was the capital’s most anxious week since September 11th.
On Monday the government issued a red alert that terrorist attacks
were likely in next week, either at home or against American【M1】______
interests abroad. John Ashcroft, the attorney - general, put the
security force who guard nuclear power stations and other bits【M2】______
of critical infrastructure on high alert.
The warning was grim because it was not issued seriously. Mr.【M3】______
Ashcroft’s people are reluctant to worry about an already tense【M4】______
population unnecessarily, particularly as they have no answers to the
three main questions: what, when and where They also fret about crying
wolf too rarely. Two things persuaded them to go public: an unusual【M5】______
volume of talk about a forthcoming "big event" emanated from various【M6】______
terrorist enclaves, and the consistent use of an unrevealed codeword.
The warning came amid yet more dire news about anthrax. A
swathe of federal buildings and the Supreme Court have now infected【M7】______
with the stuff. On October 31, a New York hospital worker died for【M8】______
inhalation anthrax, bringing the number of deaths to four. She had had
no contact with government or media post-rooms, so the disease seems
to have infected the general mail. Anthrax has turned out in two local【M9】______
post offices in Washington. People have taken to tape up their letter【M10】______
boxes and asking postal workers to leave the letters outside.
Add in the frustrating news from Afghanistan, and the
exhilaration that swept through the capital after America’s decision to
"strike back at terror" has now evaporated. Of course, reverses in
any war are inevitable.
【M9】
选项
答案
out→up
解析
词汇错误。turn out意为“生产;关掉”,均不合句意,而turn up意为“出现”。此句意思显然是“炭疽病毒在华盛顿两个当地邮局出现”。
