Aphrodite loved Adonis more than she did to heaven, for he was
a brisk, lovely young hunter. She abandoned her residence
at Olympus and took to the woods, where she dressed
herself up like a huntress and kept the youth companion all day 【M1】 ______
long. With him she roved through bushy grounds and groves and
over hills and dales, cheering hounds and pursuing game of a
harmless sort. They had a great time together. So, she 【M2】 ______
warned him many times to chase wild beasts like lions and 【M3】 ______
wolves, but the young man just laughed at the idea.
One day, after warning him thus, she left to Olympus in 【M4】 ______
her chariot. Quite by chance Adonis’ hounds found a boar, that 【M5】 ______
roused Adonis to enthusiasm. He hit the beast with a dart, and 【M6】 ______
the boar, turning on him ,buried its white tusk deep into his
tender side and trampled him to death.
When Aphrodite came back to find her lover cold in death,
she burst into a passion of tears: Unable to wrest him back from
the low world, she sprinkled nectar on Adonis’ blood and 【M7】 ______
turned it into anemone, a delicate purple flower.
Aphrodite was, therefore, still inconsolable. In grief and 【M8】 ______
despair she flew to Zeus and implored him to restore Adonis to
her. Though she had Zeus’ sympathy, Hades was by no means
prepared to comply with her request. After the much dispute a 【M9】 ______
compromise was worked out under which Adonis was to spend
half the year above ground with Aphrodite, but the rest six 【M10】 ______
months in the Elysian Fields. Therefore, in spring time Adonis
came back to the loving embrace of Aphrodite, but when winter
came he had to return most reluctantly to Hades.
【M8】
选项
答案
therefore 改成 however
解析
上下文说Aphrodite把死去的Adonis变成了一种美丽的花,但仍不感到安慰,又向宙斯求助要他向冥王把Adonis讨回。因此,这里如果用therefore则隐含“感到安慰”之意,如果是however,则表转折,意为“仍不满足”。
