问题     The difference between a liquid and a gas is obvious【C1】______the conditions of temperature and pressure commonly found【C2】______of the Earth. A liquid can be kept in an open container and【C3】______it to the level of a free surface. A gas forms no free surface but【C4】______to diffuse throughout the space available; it must【C5】______be kept in a closed container, as【C6】______a planet’s atmosphere. The distinction was a【C7】______feature of early theories【C8】______the phases of matter. In the nineteenth century, for example, one theory maintained that a liquid could be "dissolved" in a vapor without losing its identity, and another theory held that the two phases are【C9】______different kinds of molecules(分子). The theories now prevailing【C10】______a quite different approach by emphasizing【C11】______liquids and gases have in common. They are both forms of matter that have no permanent structure, and they both【C12】______easily. They are fluids.
    The【C13】______similarity of liquids and gases becomes clearly apparent when the temperature and pressure are raised somewhat.【C14】______a closed container partially filled with a liquid is heated. The liquid expands, or【C15】______, becomes less dense; some of it evaporates.【C16】______, the vapor above the liquid surface becomes denser as the evaporated molecules are【C17】______it. The combination of temperature and pressure【C18】______the densities become equal is【C19】______the critical point. Above the critical point the liquid and the gas can no longer be【C20】______; there is a single, undifferentiated fluid phase of uniform density.
【C16】

选项 A、Similarly
B、In contrast
C、Furthermore
D、Instead

答案B

解析 考查篇章分析能力。根据上下文,液体变得稀薄,而蒸汽变得稠密,因此这里应该填一个表示转折关系的词。 In contrast(相反),故选项B正确。Similarly(同样地),意思不对。Furthermore(进一步,此外),不合题意。 Instead(反而,却)虽然表示转折,但指同一主语情况下发生的转折,而本句中前后两句的主语不一致,故不选。
