What does the future hold for the problem of housing? A good (1)_____ depends, of course, on the meaning of" future". If one is thinking in (2)_____ of science fiction and the space age (3)_____ at least possible to assume that man will have solved such trivial and earthly problems as housing. Writers of science fiction have (4)_____ the suggestion that men will live in great comfort, with every (5)_____ device to make life smooth, healthy and easy, (6)_____ not happy. But they have not said what his house will be made of.
The problems of the next generation or two can more readily be imagined. Scientists have already pointed out that (7)_____ something is done either to restrict the world’s rapid growth in population or to discover and develop new sources of food (or both), millions of people will be dying of starvation or, (8)_____, suffering from under feeding before this (9)_____ is out. But nobody has worked out any plan for housing these growing populations. Admittedly the worse situations will occur in the (10)_____ parts of the world, where housing can be of light structure, or in backward areas where standards are (11)_____ low. But even the minimum shelter requires materials of (12)_____ kind, and in the crowded, bulging towns the low-standard" housing" of flattened petrol mans and dirty canvas is far more wasteful (13)_____ ground space than can be tolerated.
Since the war, Hong Kong has suffered the kind of crisis which is likely to (14)_____ in many other places during the next generation. (15)_____ millions of refugees arrived to (16)_____ the already growing population and emergency steps had to be taken to prevent squalor and disease and the (17)_____ of crime. Hong Kong is only one small part of what will certainly become a vast problem and not (18)_____ a housing problem, because when population grows at this rate there are (19)_____ problems of education, transport, water supply and so on. Not every area may have the same resources as Hong Kong to (20)_____ and the search for quicker and cheaper methods of construction must never cease.
选项
A、for the better
B、in the least
C、at the most
D、at the best
答案
D
解析
固定搭配题。吃不饱或营养不良(under-feeding)总比饿死(dying of starvation)强;故for the better(好转),in the least(毫不)与at the most(至少)都不适用,只有at the best(至多,充其量不过)符合逻辑。
