To get a sense of how women have progressed in science, take a quick tour of the physics department at the University of California, Berkeley. This is a storied place, the【C1】______of some of the most important discoveries in modern science-starting with Ernest Lawrence’ s invention of the cyclotron(回旋加速器)in 1931. A generation ago, female faces were【C2】______and, even today, visitors walking through the first floor of LeConte Hall will see a full corridor of exhibits【C3】______the many distinguished physicists who made history here,【C4】______all of them white males.
But climb up to the third floor and you’ 11 see a【C5】______display. There, among the photos of current faculty members and students, are portraits of the【C6】______head of the department, Marjorie Shapiro, and four other women whose research【C7】______everything from the mechanics of the universe to the smallest particles of matter. A sixth woman was hired just two weeks ago. Although they’ re still only about 10 percent of the physics faculty, women are clearly a presence here. And the real【C8】______may be in the smaller photos to the right; graduate and undergraduate students, about 20 percent of them female. Every year Berkeley sends its fresh female physics PhDs to the country’ s top universities. That makes Shapiro optimistic, but also【C9】______" I believe things are getting better," she says," but they’ re not getting better as【C10】______as I would like."
[A]circumstance[B]confidence

[E]deals[F]different
[G]exposing[H]fast
[I]honoring[J]hope
[K]presently[L]rare
[M]realistic[N]site
[O]virtually
【C4】
选项
答案
O
解析
空格前的句子结构完整,空格后是all of them white males,由此可以推断空格处应填入副词,结合上下文可知,这里说的是女性物理学家人数少,男性人数多,再结合备选项可知virtually(几乎,差不多)符合句意。
