Rio De Janeiro is infamous for its high crime rate. As it prepares to 【C1】______ the 2014 World Cup and 2016 Olympic Games, the city is bracing for a flood of international 【C2】______. Given its crime-ridden (犯罪猖獗的) reputation, how well are its 【C3】______ doing in tackling the problem? But wait a moment before cancelling your flights. There are two reasons for caution.
Firstly, Brazil’s population is young, and 【C4】______ very rapidly. So you would expect the number of recorded crimes to be increasing too. What’s more meaningful is the crime rate—the number of recorded 【C5】______ per person. The crime rate in Rio seems to be increasing at a 【C6】______ rate than its population—in spite of the massive security crackdown (镇压). But despite all this, things may not be as bad as they 【C7】______. No, really. The second, and perhaps more interesting, reason for caution; it’s all about that little word "recorded".
My colleague in the FT’s Brazil bureau, Samantha Pearson, comments: "Since 2008 the authorities have started to move into the city’s poor areas and set up police posts there. Before, these areas were completely 【C8】______—if a crime happened, it would 【C9】______ be reported to the police. The rise in recorded incidents could just be because the authorities are 【C10】______ back the more dangerous areas of the city, and people are now reporting these crimes.
【C8】
选项
答案
G
解析
根据空格前的系动词were可推断此处缺少形容词作表语。空格处上一句的句意为“......自从2008年以来,里约热内卢当局就开始把办公地点搬迁到城市的贫民窟里,并在那里建立了警察局。”由此可推知空格处的句意为“在那之前,这些地方完全无法律可言”,因此G项lawless“无法律的”符合句意,为答案。
