解析

本题为英语完形填空，主要考查词汇在语境中的准确运用。需要根据上下文逻辑和语法结构，选择恰当的单词形式。解题关键点：

  1. 语境理解：袁隆平院士的生平与贡献，需关注描述其成就、性格、工作状态的关键词；
  2. 词性匹配：注意形容词、动词、名词等词性的灵活转换（如第1、3、5空）；
  3. 固定搭配：如"be named after"（第2空）、"devote oneself to"（第3空）等常用短语；
  4. 逻辑关系：通过上下文对比（如第6空"extremely humble"与后文"never sought fame"的呼应）。

第1空

widely
句意：他广为人知为杂交水稻之父。
分析：修饰动词短语"known as"，需用副词；"widely"强调范围广，符合袁隆平的国际知名度。

第2空

named
句意：甚至有一颗小行星以他命名。
分析：固定短语"be named after"表示"以...命名"，此处省略关系代词，直接用动词过去分词形式。

第3空

devoted
句意：他选择远离聚光灯，投身于水稻研究。
分析：固定短语"devote oneself to"表示"致力于"，此处用过去式与上下文时态一致。

第4空

tanned
句意：他的脸被太阳晒得黝黑。
分析：描述肤色变化，"tanned"是形容词，表示"被晒黑的"，符合语境。

第5空

calloused
句意：他粗糙的大手整天在泥里"玩耍"。
分析："calloused"指因劳动摩擦而粗糙的皮肤，与前文"playing in the mud"形成生动对比。

第6空

extremely
句意：袁教授非常谦逊。
分析：修饰形容词"humble"，需用程度副词；"extremely"强调程度深，与后文"never sought fame"呼应。

第7空

alleviate
句意：帮助减轻贫困、消除饥饿。
分析：动词作宾补，"alleviate"意为"减轻、缓解"，与"lift people out of hunger"构成递进关系。

第8空

outdoors
句意：袁隆平出生在北京，但他喜欢户外活动。
分析：名词作宾语，"outdoors"表示抽象概念"户外生活"，与前文"short-sleeved work shirts"形成呼应。
