A Wonderful Chip
It is tiny, only about a quarter of an inch square, and quite flat. Under a microscope, it resembles a stylized Navaho rug or the aerial view of a railroad (51) yard. Like the (52) of sand on a beach, it is made mostly of silicon, (53) oxygen, the most abundant element on the surface of the earth.
Yet this inert fleck (小片), still unfamiliar to the (54) majority of Americans, has astonishing power. It is cheap to (55) produce, fast, infinitely versatile and convenient.
The miracle chip represents a quantum(重大的) (56) in the technology of mankind, a development that (57) the past few years has acquired the force and significance associated with the development of hand tools or the discovery of the steam engine. Just as the Industrial Revolution (58) an immense (59) of tasks from men’s (60) and enormously expanded productivity, (61) the microcomputer is rapidly assuming huge burdens of drudgery from the human brain and (62) expanding the mind’s capacities (63) that man has only begun to grasp. (64) the chip amazing feats of (65) become possible in everything from automobile engines to university laboratories and hospitals, from farms to banks and corporate offices, from outerspace to a baby’s nursery.
选项
A、like
B、next to
C、in the neighborhood of
D、same as
答案
B
解析
此题属于语义搭配题。next to意为“仅次于……”,根据句子意思,此处需一个介词说明silicon和oxygen的关系。前半句谈到芯片主要成分是silicon(硅),后半句谈oxygen(氧)是地壳中含量最丰富的元素,因此,next to(仅次于)才能说明硅和氧的关系。故选项B next to正确。选项A like意为“与……一样”,与题意不符;选项C in the neighborhood of意为“大约”,体现不出二者含量的差别;选项D same as意为“与……一样”。
