Our ape-men forefathers had no obvious natural weapons in the struggle【C1】________ survival in the open. They had neither the powerful teeth nor the strong claws of the big cats. They could not【C2】________ with the bear, whose strength, speed and claws provided an impressive "small-fire" weaponry. They could not even defend themselves【C3】________ running swiftly like the horses, zebras or small animals. If the ape-men had attempted to compete on those terms in the open, they would have been doomed to【C4】________ and extinction. But they were endowed with enormous concealed advantages of a kind not possessed by any of their competitors.
In the search for the pickings of the forest, the ape-men had【C5】________efficient stereoscopic vision and a sense of colour that the animals of the grasslands did not possess. The ability to see clearly at close range permitted the ape-men to study practical problems in a way that lay far beyond the reach of the original inhabitants of the grassland. Good long-distance sight was【C6】________ another matter.

Out in the open, however, this simple solution was not available. Climbing a hill would have helped, but in many places the ground was【C8】________. The ape-men adopted the only possible solution. They reared up as high as possible on their hind limbs and began to walk upright.

However, they persevered and their bone structure gradually became adapted to the new, unstable position that【C10】________ them the name Homo Erectus, upright man.

答案
J
解析
空格前的was提示空格处应填入形容词或动词分词。本句中提到“爬上小山应该能起一定作用,但是许多地方的地面是________”。but提示此处要表达的意思是没有山可以爬,即地势平坦,故选J项flat“平坦的”。mountainous“多山的”代入,与空格前的分句并不存在语义上转折,故可排除。
