问题     Geography is the study of the relationship between people and the land. Geographers(地理学家)compare and contrast【C1】______ places on the earth. But they also go beyond the individual places and consider the earth as a【C2】______ , The world geography come from two Greek words, ge, the Greek word for "earth" and graphein,【C3】______ means "to write. " The English word geography means "to describe the earth. " Some geography books focus on a small area【C4】______ a town or city. Others deal with a state, a region, a nation, or an【C5】______ continent. Many geography books deal with the whole earth. Another way to divide the study of【C6】______ is to distinguish between physical geography and cultural geography. The former focuses on the natural world; the【C7】______ starts with human beings and studies how human beings and their environment act【C8】______ each other. But when geography is considered as a single subject,【C9】______ branch can neglect the other. A geographer might be described as one who observes, records, and explains the difference between places. If all places【C10】______ alike, there would be little need for geographers. We know, however, that no two places are exactly the same. Geography, then, is a point of view, a special way of looking at places.
【C2】
选项 A、whole
B、unit
C、part
D、total
答案A
解析 本题所在句子的前半句是说地理学家并不仅仅局限于研究一个一个的地区(indi—vidual places)，后半句显然是表达应该把地球作为整体来加以考虑这一层意思。四个选项中，只有A项whole表示"整体，整个"的意思，因而应选A。B项unit的意思是"单位"，我们不能把地球称为一个单位，因而B项不是答案。D项total的意思是"总数"，很明显我们也不能把地球称为一个总数。C项part的意思是"部分"，与句子所要求的意思正好相反。
