It is a paradox that the snow, coming【C1】______ gently, blowing gleefully in a high wind, all the while【C2】______ down a treacherous carpet, freezes the windows,【C3】______ the view. The might of automated man is【C4】______ .The horses, the powerful electrical systems, the deep-tread tires, all go【C5】______ nothing. One minute the road feels【C6】______ , and the next the driver is sliding over it, light as a【C7】______ , in a panic, wondering what the heavy trailer trucks coming up【C8】______ the rear are going to do. The trucks are like【C9】______ when you have to pass them, not at sixty or seventy【C10】______ you do when the road is dry, but at twenty-five and thirty.【C11】______ their engines sound unnaturally loud. Snow, slush and 【C12】______ of ice spray from beneath the wheels, obscure the windshield, and rattle【C13】______ your car. Beneath the wheels there is plenty of【C14】______for you to slide and get mashed to a pulp. Inch【C15】______ inch you move up, past the rear wheels, the center wheels, the cab, the front wheels, all【C16】______ too slowly by. Straight ahead you continue,【C17】______ to cut over sharply would send you into a slip,【C18】______ in front of the vehicle. At last, there is【C19】______ enough, and you creep back over, in front of the truck now, but【C20】______ the sound of its engine still thundering in your ears.
【C15】
选项
A、by
B、after
C、for
D、with
答案
A
解析
英语成语。英语讲究对称美,其表现之一为成语排列形式上的对称美,即以介词、连词(and或or)或动词为“对称轴”,构成相同词、同词性的词、反义词或同类词的对称。本题inch by inch就是以介词by为“对称轴”构成的相同词(inch)的对称,意为“一点一点地”。类似结构的成语还有:head to head(交头接耳),word for word(逐词地),like for like(以牙还牙)。A项为正确答案。
