Modern (4)_____ are not as generous as Linne in welcoming other species into Man’s lofty (5)_____, and the chimpanzee is now referred to (6)_____ Pan troglodytes.

选项
A、duplicated
B、dwarfed
C、made
D、over lapped
答案
C
解析
duplicated使加倍;复制;重复、dwarfed使相形见绌;胜过、made做出;做、overlapped互搭,复叠。本题是一道词汇题,考查动词"make"的正确搭配使用。make通常与固定的名词连用,构成动宾关系。本题空白处前面的"comparison"(比较)一词暗示本题的正确答案应该是"made",因为"make comparison"(做比较)是一固定的搭配形式。
