The West has begun to take more notice of the East.
The fifth【C1】______of an enormous【C2】______reassessing the Chinese contribution to science and technology is to be published next year. The first volume,【C3】______was published twenty years ago,【C4】______the tone of the whole work. In it, evidence was given to show that many inventions which【C5】______, western historians had claimed for Europe, were made【C6】______in China. The attempt to rewrite the intellectual history of the world was not received【C7】______protest by some reputable historians.【C8】______, the evidence that has been presented so far in the first four volumes has persuaded many historians who were【C9】______at first. China’s invention of paper, printing, the magnetic compass and gunpowder【C10】______disputed, but this new history has added【C11】______bridge design, mechanical clocks, paddleboats and many【C12】______inventions to the list.
In the four volumes published so far no attempt has been made to explain【C13】______China has not kept up with the West in science and technology in modern【C14】______. It is probable that the answer【C15】______in the social and economic history of China, where a static society【C16】______a relatively benevolent regime of scholar-gentry【C17】______the potentially revolutionary and dynamic society of the West at the end of the Middle Ages. In recent years, the Chinese government has been making every effort to【C18】______the West again, and there is【C19】______doubt that the gap is being【C20】______year by year. But will China avoid the West’s mistake?
【C12】
选项
A、other
B、important
C、famous
D、ingenious
答案
A
解析
篇章题。上下文理解题。此处列举了书中所归为中国的发明创造。具体发明创造如与某一类的发明创造用表并列关系的词and连接,将导致外延混乱。假设本句说书中加进了“机械钟表的发明和许多重要的发明”,那么显然,机械钟表的发明可以包含在重要发明之内,二者之间的外延有重合部分,不能用并列关系连接。因此,选项必须排除对前面例子的外延覆盖,选项中只有other符合条件,为正确答案。其他各项important(重要的),famous(著名的),ingenious(有独创性的)均会覆盖或部分覆盖前面的例子的外延,因此,不能选择。
