I’m told that during an international game of chess (国际象棋), many beautiful moves could bc made on a chessboard. In a decisive【C1】______in which he was evenly matched with a Russian master【C2】______, Marshall found his queen under serious attack. There were several ways of【C3】______, and since the queen is the most【C4】______piece, spectators (观众) thought Marshall would naturally move his queen to【C5】______.
Deep in thought, Marshall used all his time to consider the【C6】______. He picked up his queen, paused, and placed it down on the most【C7】______square of all--a square from which the queen could be【C8】______by any one of three enemy pieces.
Marshall had sacrificed (牺牲) his queen--an unthinkable move. Everyone else was【C9】______.
Then the Russian, and the【C10】______, realized that Marshall had actually made a【C11】______move. It was clear that no matter how the【C12】______was taken, the Russian would soon be in a【C13】______position. Seeing this, the Russian admitted his defeat.
When spectators recovered from the【C14】______of Marshall’s dating, they showered the chessboard with money. Marshall had achieved【C15】______a very unusual and dating fashion--he had【C16】______by sacrificing the queen.
To me, it’s not【C17】______that he won. What counts is that Marshall had broken with standard【C18】______to make such a move. He had looked【C19】______the usual patterns of play and had been willing to consider an imaginative risk on the basis of his judgment and his judgment alone. No matter how the game【C20】______, Marshall was the winner.
【C14】
选项
A、cause
B、blow
C、accident
D、shock
答案
D
解析
本题考查的是对上下文的理解。cause意为“原因”,blow意为“打击”,accident意为“事故”,shock意为“惊讶”。由上文可知,观众们看到马休牺牲了他的王后都感到很失望,很惊讶。由此可以推测,人们慢慢地从惊讶中恢复过来。故D正确。
