That sounds like a fun dinner-party【C3】______but not exactly a good way to【C4】______your carbon emission. What\’s more, using water and electricity to run a load without【C5】______cleaning anything sounds like a waste of time and money.
But a recent survey suggested the technique could be making a【C6】______It may have a little something to do with the change to the original cooking technique that could prove to be【C7】______to a new, eco-friendly, convenience-focused generation in the kitchen.
Lisa Casali, an Italian author, wrote a book on dishwasher cooking that\’s actually meant to save energy. The book, \\
1.【C1】
G
解析:空格前的动词cook提示空格处应为名词作其宾语。句末的mainly fish提示该名词应该是一种食物,据此在词库中选用protein。
2.【C2】
L
解析:根据空格前的不定式标记to判断空格应为动词原形。空格所在句描述用洗碗机烹煮三文鱼的方法,foil提示三文鱼是用锡纸“包”起来的,词库中动词wrap符合语义。
3.【C3】
A
解析:a fun dinner-party…作sounds like的宾语,宾语部分缺少中心名词。“用洗碗机烹煮三文鱼”算是一种烹调技巧,因此选用trick一词,a fun dinner-party trick意为“让宴会变得有趣的小花招”。
4.【C4】
D
解析:根据空格前的不定式to判断空格应为动词原形。a good way提示不定式短语应该是说具体的好处,故从词库中选取decrease一词,表示“减少二氧化碳的排放量”。
5.【C5】
K
解析:空格所在句不缺少主谓宾成分,由此推断此处可能填入副词,用以强调without cleaning anything。词库中actually符合语义。
6.【C6】
F
解析:空格前的a提示此处填入名词。上一段讲到使用洗碗机煮食费时费钱,本段开头的but提示,此处讲的是现在人们对于这一煮食方法的不同看法。名词库中的come back符合语义,表示“洗碗机煮食的做法再次流行起来”。
7.【C7】
E
解析:prove to be后可接名词、形容词或分词。洗碗机煮食方法改良后,更可能博得注重eco—friendly,convenience-focused的一代人的好感,题库中attractive符合句意。
8.【C8】
C
解析:空格位于形容词airtight和名词jars之间,据此推断应填入名词、形容词或分词,与airtight并列修饰jars。词库中sealed与airtight近义,填入文中表示“密封的罐子”,符合语义。
9.【C9】
B
解析:空格需要一个形容词,与副词词组all that“到那种地步”一起跟在动词doesn’t sound后作表语。根据该句的主语“紧挨昨晚的脏碗碟煮熟的三文鱼”,可推知这样煮熟的三文鱼让人没胃口。因此选用appetizing。
10.【C10】
J
解析:空格位于系动词feel之后,应填入名词、形容词或分词。前半句讲人们刚开始对用洗碗机煮鱼的感受,后半句指出,对于那些繁忙的父母或想节省时间的大学生而言,这种做法是明智的。but前后内容形成对比,词库中的shocked符合文中语境。
Electronic cigarettes are handheld nicotine-delivery devices that, despite a devoted following, are currently swirling in controversy. New York is pushing to become the first state to ban the devices, which so far remain【C1】______and mostly unstudied. With cute colors, fruity flavors, clever designs and other options, e-cigarettes may hold too much【C2】______for young people, critics warn, offering an easy gateway to nicotine addiction. But those criticisms clash with【C3】______strong arguments for the value of e-cigarettes. The devices, which are tobacco-free, may be a safer【C4】______to cigarettes, say advocates, who point to thousands of smokers who say they have used e-cigarettes to help them quit.
Electronic cigarettes【C5】______use a rechargeable battery-operated heating element to vaporize the nicotine in a replaceable pipe.
