When my wife, who is a Spanish spent her first winter in London a few years ago, she used to ask me time and again, "Where’s the fog?" Almost all foreigners【C1】______to find the city wreathed in yellow-gray mist for most of the year. Dickens, who was.【C2】______responsible for painting this【C3】______in people’s minds, certainly wasn’t exaggerating in those days, People【C4】______in the nineteenth century that when someone.【C5】______suicide by jumping into the Thames he has chocked by the fog and poisoned by the terrible【C6】______of the river before he had time to drown himself. In fact, the situation【C7】______in recent years. When I was a boy in London city 30 years ago I was often unable to see【C8】______of the road when I left home on winter mornings.
The decisive steps that have turned London into one of the【C9】______cities in the world【C10】______taken at the end of the 1950s. But Londoners still【C11】______that fog【C12】______returns. The change took place as a result of two main improvements.

A、fume
B、smell
C、smoke
D、gas
答案
B
解析
词义辨析题。空格所在句的意思是:“人们过去常常说在19世纪的时候,当有人跳到泰晤士河想自杀时,在他被河水淹死之前,就被浓雾窒息,被泰晤士河可怕的气味毒死了。”因为要填的词是“被泰晤士河可怕的气味毒死了”,所以应填smell,而不应填flime“烟气”、 smoke“烟”或gas“气体”,因为河水不能发出这些东西。
