Valentine’ s Day may come from the ancient Roman feast of Lupercalia. 【C1】______the fierce wolves roamed nearby, the old Romans called【C2】______the god Lupercus to help them. A festival in his【C3】______was held on February 15th. On the eve of the festival the【C4】______of the girls were written on 【C5】______ of paper and placed in jars. Each young man 【C6】______ a slip. The girl whose name was 【C7】______ was to be his sweetheart for the year.
Legend 【C8】______ it that the holiday became Valentine’s Day 【C9】______ a Roman priest named Valentine. Emperor Claudius II【C10】______the Roman soldiers NOT to marry or become engaged. Claudius felt married soldiers would【C11】______stay home than fight.

选项
A、goat
B、saint
C、model
D、weapon
答案
B
解析
考查名词辨析。由下文可知,牧师们设定了一个专门的节日来纪念瓦伦丁,而不再纪念牧神。可见瓦伦丁变成了一个“圣人”,而不是“山羊(goat)”,“模范(model)”或“武器(weapon)”。故B.saint正确。
