Rio De Janeiro is infamous for its high crime rate. As it prepares to【C1】______the 2014 World Cup and 2016 Olympic Games, the city is bracing for a flood of international【C2】______. Given its crime-ridden(犯罪猖獗的)reputation, how well are its【C3】______doing in tackling the problem? But wait a moment before cancelling your flights. There are two reasons for caution.
Firstly, Brazil’s population is young, and【C4】______very rapidly. So you would expect the number of recorded crimes to be increasing too. What’s more meaningful is the crime rate—the number of recorded【C5】______per person. The crime rate in Rio seems to be increasing at a【C6】______rate than its population—in spite of the massive security crackdown(镇压). But despite all this, things may not be as bad as they【C7】______. No, really. The second, and perhaps more interesting, reason for caution: it’s all about that little word "recorded".
My colleague in the FTs Brazil bureau, Samantha Pearson, comments: "Since 2008 the authorities have started to move into the city’s poor areas and set up police posts there. Before, these areas were completely【C8】______—if a crime happened, it would【C9】______be reported to the police. The rise in recorded incidents could just be because the authorities are【C10】______back the more dangerous areas of the city, and people are now reporting these crimes. "
【C8】
选项
答案
O
解析
根据空格前的系动词were可推断此处缺少形容词作表语。空格处上一句的句意为:自从2008年以来,里约热内卢当局就开始把办公地点搬迁到城市的贫民窟里,并在那里建立了警察局。由此可推知空格处的句意为“在那之前,这些地方完全无法律可言”,因此[O]lawless“无法律的”符合句意,为答案。
