问题     Geography is the study of the relationship between people and the land. Geographers(地理学家)compare and contrast【C1】______ places on the earth. But they also go beyond the individual places and consider the earth as a【C2】______ , The world geography come from two Greek words, ge, the Greek word for "earth" and graphein,【C3】______ means "to write. " The English word geography means "to describe the earth. " Some geography books focus on a small area【C4】______ a town or city. Others deal with a state, a region, a nation, or an【C5】______ continent. Many geography books deal with the whole earth. Another way to divide the study of【C6】______ is to distinguish between physical geography and cultural geography. The former focuses on the natural world; the【C7】______ starts with human beings and studies how human beings and their environment act【C8】______ each other. But when geography is considered as a single subject,【C9】______ branch can neglect the other. A geographer might be described as one who observes, records, and explains the difference between places. If all places【C10】______ alike, there would be little need for geographers. We know, however, that no two places are exactly the same. Geography, then, is a point of view, a special way of looking at places.
【C1】
选项 A、similar
B、various
C、distant
D、famous
答案B
解析 本题要求根据上下文选择合适的形容词。所在的句子中用了compare(比较)和contrast(对照)两个动词。什么样的东西才需要进行比较和对照呢?很明显是"各种"或"不同的"的东西，因而只有B项various(各种)是答案。
