问题 Human beings are animals．We breathe，eat and digest，and reproduce the same life【1】common to all  animals．In a biological laboratory，rats，monkeys，and humans seem very much the same．
  However，biological understanding is not enough：【2】itself，it can never tell us what human beings are．【3】to our physical equipment—the naked human body—we are not【4】animal．We are tropical creatures，【5】hairless and sensitive to cold．We are not fast and have neither claws nor sharp teeth to defend ourselves．We need a lot of food but have almost no physical equipment to help us get it．In the purely physical【6】，our species seems a poor【7】for survival．
  But we have survived—survived and multiplied and【8】the earth．Some day we will have a 【9】 living  on the moon，a place with neither air nor water and with temperatures that turn gases into solids．How can  we have done all these things．Part of the answer is physical．【10】its limitations，our physical equipment  has some Important【11】，We have excellent vision and hands that can 【12】 objects with a precision  unmatched by any other 【13】，Most importantly，we have a large brain with an almost 【14】 number of  neural【15】，
  We have used this physical equipment to create culture，the key to our survival and success．If we livein the Arctic，we supply the warmth our tropical bodies need 【16】clothing，shelter，and 【17】heat．If a million people want to live in a desert that supplies natural food for only a few hundred，we find water to grow food and【18】deficits by transporting supplies from distant places．Inhabitants of our evenmal moon colony will bring their own food and oxygen and then create an artificial earth environment to supply necessities．With culture，we can overcome our natural limitations．
  It was not always【19】Our distant ancestors were just animals，faced with the limits of their phvsical equipment．They had no【20】and lacked the physical capacity to use it．

选项 A、intelligent
B、impressive
C、influential
D、incentive

答案B

解析考查上下文语义及形容词辨析。这句话的意思是“当人类处于赤裸状态时，看起来比别的动物并不优越多少，给人的印象并不深刻”。impressive“令人印象深刻的”，符合句意，为正确答案。Intelligent “聪明的，有智力的”，influential“有影响力的”，incentive“刺激的，诱发的”，均不符合题意。
