问题 Despite the abundance and importance of maize, its biological origin has been a long-running mystery. The bright yellow, mouth-watering treat does not grow in the wild anywhere on the planet, so its (i)________ is not at all (ii)________.
Blank (i)                Blank (ii)
A. utility               D. helpful
B. popularity            E. important
C. ancestry              F. obvious

选项

答案C,F

解析 空格(i):
- 方程等号:句号,同义重复。
- 强词和对应:第一句话说玉米的起源是个谜,根据句号同义重复,第二句话应同义重复玉米的起源是个谜。空格(i)前面有its,同义重复maize,所以空格(i)应填入“起源”含义的单词。utility实用,popularity流行,ancestry起源。答案选C。
空格(ii):
- 方程等号:not at all一点也不,取反。
- 强词和对应:空格(i)填入了起源,根据not at all取反,not at all+空格(ii)的意思应该是“谜”。helpful有希望的,important重要的,obvious明显的,所以答案选F,不是明显的即是一个谜。
