As the world excitedly greeted Snuppy, the first cloned(克隆)dog, commentators celebrated our cleverness. Many feel proud that our age is marked by technological【C1】______.
But an article in British newspaper The Observer recently said true innovation has【C2】______from our society.
The writer was Peter Watson, author of the book Ideas-A History from Fire to Freud. Watson began: "The year 2005 can’t begin to compete with 1905 in terms of【C3】______innovations."
"Writing a history of ideas over the past three years, I have been【C4】______time and again by the fact that, contrary to what we tell ourselves all the time—on TV, in newspapers and magazines, in【C5】______and in government propaganda—our present world is nowhere near as【C6】______and innovative as it thinks it is, certainly in comparison with past ages.
"Yes, we are dazzled by mobile phones, cameras, digital TV, and the www, by laser-guided surgery and bombs, by DNA fingerprinting, and now by cloning. These are not【C7】______things but do they change the way we think in important—in fundamental—directions?"
Watson quotes Richard Southern, Oxford University historian, who died last year: "Southern thought the most interesting times in history were 1050-1250 and 1750-1950."
"Each of these periods transformed our understanding of ourselves【C8】______".
"But what great ideas or transformations have been【C9】______in the half-century since 1950?" Watson asked, pointing out that except for a few innovations such as the Internet, most scientific research【C10】______modifies previous studies.
A)rarely B)introduced C)merely D)intimate
E)distributed F)important G)advances H)statistics
I)radically J)struck K)disappeared L)small
M)interesting N)advertising O)pessimistic
【C1】
选项
答案
G
解析
此处需要名词,作介词by的宾语。根据上文的“感到自豪”,可知此处需要一个积极意义的名词,所以答案为advances。technological advances意为“科技上的进步”。
