As the world excitedly greeted Snuppy, the first cloned(克隆)dog, commentators celebrated our cleverness. Many feel proud that our age is marked by technological【S1】______.
But an article in British newspaper The Observer recently said true innovation has【S2】______from our society.
The writer was Peter Watson, author of the book "Ideas—A History from Fire to Freud". Watson began: "The year 2005 can’t begin to compete with 1905 in terms of【S3】______innovations."
"Writing a history of ideas over the past three years, I have been【S4】______time and again by the fact that, contrary to what we tell ourselves all the time—on TV, in newspapers and magazines, in【S5】______and in government propaganda—our present world is nowhere near as【S6】______and innovative as it thinks it is, certainly in comparison with past ages.
"Yes, we are dazzled by mobile phones, cameras, digital TV, and the www, by laser-guided surgery and bombs, by DNA fingerprinting, and now by cloning. These are not【S7】______things but do they change the way we think in important—in fundamental—directions?"
Watson quotes Richard Southern, Oxford University historian, who died last year: "Southern thought the most interesting times in history were 1050-1250 and 1750-1950."
"Each of these periods transformed our understanding of ourselves【S8】______"
"But what great ideas or transformations have been【S9】______in the half-century since 19507" Watson asked, pointing out that except for a few innovations such as the Internet, most scientific research【S10】______modifies previous studies.
A)rarely I)radically
B)introduced J)struck
C)merely K)disappeared
D)intimate L)small
E)distributed M)interesting
F)important N)advertising
G)advances O)pessimistic
H)statistics
【S3】
选项
答案
F
解析
此处需要一个形容词,而且是一个积极意义的形容词,作定语修饰名词innovations。能够修饰innovations的以important最为合适。in terms of important innovations意为“就重大革新而言”。
