问题 The uniquely human ability to rethink and revise our social arrangements is a weird blessing, allowing us to create systems that are as likely to_________us as to liberate us.
A. cheer
B. shackle
C. admonish
D. educate
E. stifle
F. enliven

选项

答案B,E

解析 注意weird(奇怪的)这个词的用法,作为一般规律,当句子中出现surprising,startling,remarkable,curious,weird等词汇时,很有可能句子中存在对立的两个方面。通读句子:人类独有的能够重新思考和修改我们的社会制度的能力是一个奇怪的恩赐,这个恩赐允许我们创造出来的系统既可能________我们,又可能解放我们。显然这两个矛盾的对象是________us与liberate us(解放我们)。空格填入“解放,使自由”的反面,即“束缚”,所以选B项shackle,E项stifle(束缚)。
