It was the worst tragedy in【C1】______history, six times more deadly than the Titanic.
When the German cruise ship Wilhelm Gustloff was hit by torpedoes【C2】______from a Russian submarine in the final winter of World War II, more than 10,000 people—mostly women, children and old people【C3】______the final Red Army【C4】______into Nazi Germany—were【C5】______aboard. An ice storm had turned the decks into frozen sheets that sent hundreds of families【C6】______into the sea as the ship【C7】______and began to go down. Others desperately tried to put lifeboats down. Some, who succeeded, fought【C8】______those in the water【C9】______had the strength to try to【C10】______their way aboard. Most people froze immediately. "I’ll never forget the screams," says Christa Ntitzmann, 87, one of the 1,200 survivors. She recalls【C11】______the ship, brightly lit, slipping into its dark grave— and into seeming【C12】______, rarely mentioned for more than half a century.
Now Germany’s Nobel Prize-winning author Gtinter Grass has【C13】______the memory of the 9,000 dead, including more than 4,000 children【C14】______his latest novel Crab Walk, published last month. The book, which will【C15】______in English next year, doesn’t【C16】______the sinking; its heroine is a pregnant young woman who survives the catastrophe only to say later: "Nobody wanted to hear about it, not here in the West (of Germany) and not at all in the East." The reason was obvious. As Grass【C17】______it in a recent interview with the weekly Die Woche: "Because the crimes we Germans are responsible for were and are so【C18】______, we didn’t have the energy left to【C19】______our own【C20】______."
【C12】
选项
A、nothing
B、empty
C、emptiness
D、nothingness
答案
D
解析
上下文及词义辨析题根据后文可知此处强调如同没有发生过一般,鲜少有人提及。nothing否定代词:没什么,没什么东西,无物,一个也没有;nothingness名词:(状态)不存在,无,空;empty形容词:空的;emptiness名词:空虚,空洞。nothingness与emptiness的区别在于前者强调“不存在”的状态,没有发生过一般,而后者强调空无一物,没有内容。此处原文意为这艘船沉人了黑色的坟墓,湮没于历史之中。故选D。
