Clark felt that his ______ in one of the most dramatic medical experiments of all time was worth the suffering he underwent.
A. appreciation
B. participation
C. presentation
D. apprehension
题目解答
答案
B. participation
解析
本题考查名词辨析,需要根据语境选择最合适的词。关键点在于理解句子中Clark的行为与实验的关系。空格处需填入一个表示“参与”或“加入”的名词,强调Clark在实验中的主动角色。
选项分析
A. appreciation
appreciation意为“感激、欣赏”,通常指对某物或某人的感谢或赏识。例如:“I expressed my appreciation for their help.”(我表达了对他们帮助的感激。)
语境不符:题目中Clark是实验的参与者,而非表达感激的一方。
B. participation
participation意为“参与、参加”,强调主动加入某项活动。例如:“Her participation in the project was crucial.”(她在项目中的参与至关重要。)
符合语境:题目中Clark主动参与实验,并认为值得承受痛苦,与“参与”意义一致。
C. presentation
presentation意为“展示、呈现”,通常指展示某物或演讲。例如:“The presentation of the report was clear.”(报告的展示很清晰。)
语境不符:实验中Clark的角色是参与者而非展示者。
D. apprehension
apprehension意为“理解”或“焦虑”,前者指“理解概念”,后者指“不安”。例如:“He had an apprehension of the risks.”(他对风险有所顾虑。)
语境不符:题目中Clark的态度是正面的“值得”,而非负面的“焦虑”。
