Where Have All Our Visitors Gone?
Sixty years ago, a man named Kenneth Arnold saw something that people are still【C1】______today—something that changed popular culture forever.
Flying his plane over mountains in the US state of Washington, he saw a line of strange objects, either crescent-shaped or disc-like, flying【C2】______the motion of a saucer skimming on water.
The media soon picked up on the story—the Flying Saucers were here! Was the earth being【C3】______by creatures from another planet? Soon, so many sightings were made that the US military began to【C4】______. It called these strange objects UFOs—Unidentified Flying Objects, and that is how they are【C5】______today.
Military investigations found no evidence of visitors from outer space. But that did not stop the true【C6】______. The military were【C7】______up, they said. Or【C8】______it was because the travelers from space were of such superior intelligence that they could hide from the most sophisticated military analysts.
People have always seen strange lights in the sky. In the past these were explained in【C9】______ways. In a world where religion was less influential and science fiction was popular, signs from god were replaced by visitors from other【C10】______.
The date of the first UFO signings was also significant. In 1947, World War II had just ended and the【C11】______war was just beginning. Humanity seemed locked in endless conflicts. Like generations before them, people looked【C12】______the skies for help. But instead of seeking God, they looked for help from super-intelligent aliens with【C13】______technology. Belief in UFOs became the first religion of science.
However, even people who believe in UFOs are not quite sure why they visit the earth. The universe is a big place and it is【C14】______to assume that there is life somewhere out there. It is possible that aliens have worked out how to travel through space. Yet some people report that they have been taken by aliens and have had experiments【C15】______on them. Why would anyone travel across half the universe to conduct medical experiments on people living in small towns in the United States?
【C1】
选项
A、looking
B、seeing
C、seeking
D、feeling
答案
B
解析
see和look,seek这三个词的根本区别在于see有一个终点(endpoint),而look和seek是没有终点的。句子相关部分说的是某物人们今天仍然看得见,注意“看得见”和“看见”是有终点的,但“看”没有。因此用seeing而不用looking和seeking。
