When the planet Mars was first【C14】______through a telescope, people saw that the round disk of the planet was crises-crossed by a【C15】______of strange blue- green lines.

【C5】
选项 A、revealed
B、exposed
C、opened
D、shown
答案B
解析 词义辨析题。expose意为“使暴露、面临”，常与介词to连用，表示“暴露于…之中”，符合句意，所以 B正确oreveal意为“显示，揭露”，常用于表示秘密、真相等被揭露；show意为“展示”；open意为“打开”，均排除。
