题目解答
答案
1)Imagination。该句意为:____不是在做梦。本文主要描述了imagination (想象力) 的重要性,且下文提到 imagination is being creative,和本句中的 is not形成对比。故此空答案为 imagination。
2)However。此句意为:_____,想象力是创造力。"being creative" 和 "dreaming" 是对比转折的关系,应填表示然而的连接词。此空位于句首且用逗号与句子其他成分隔开,故应用however。
3)credit。此句意为:我们完全可以______我们所有的发明和创新。下文提到Without imagination, we would still be cavemen (如果没有想象力,我们现在还是穴居人),说明imagination对我们有很大的帮助。因此空缺的词应表达我们把所有的发明和创新都归功于imagination。故答案为credit。
4)source。此句意为:知识是想象力的____。下文提到Backed by knowledge accumulated (积累) in the past (在过去知识积累的支持下),可知imagination来源于知识的积累。换言之,知识是想象力的来源。故此空应用source。
5)learning。此句意为:在过去积累的知识的支持下,天赋异禀的____和坚定的工作,天才科学家能够......。此空应填入一个动词与working形成并列关系。根据knowledge accumulated 可知知识的积累是一个学习的过程。介词with后接动词-ing形式,故答案为learning。
6)huge/great。此句意为:有才华的科学家能够在他们的研究中取得_____的飞跃。固定搭配make huge/great leaps, 意为 "做出巨大的飞跃"。
7)mess。此句意为:在清理人类因全球变暖而造成的_____时,想象力是非常必要的。根据 as well as可知后半句与前半句形成并列关系。固定搭配clean up the mess 意为 "收拾残局"。故此空答案为mess。
8)outbreak。此句意为:以及应对致命疾病频繁______的问题。根据句意可知此空应表达突然发生的意思,故答案为outbreak。
9)strained。此句意为:以及在处理诸如频繁_____的致命疾病、_____贫富关系等问题上。富人和穷人之间财富差距较大,两者的社会地位处于对立,因此此空应表达紧张的意思,故答案为strained。
