Organic farmers had fought to prevent genetically-engineered crops from being【C1】______organic, and it could【C2】______for them. Plants genetically【C3】______to resist insects and other pests【C4】______about 15-percent of United States crop production, but it has become a【C5】______15-percent. Several European countries are refusing to【C6】______genetically-engineered crops from the United States. Jim Skiff, president of the Illinois-based company US Soy, says his company will not grow crops with genetically modified organisms, known as GMO for short.
But the biotechnology industry is fighting back. Here’s an advertisement produced by the Washington-based Council for Biotechnology Information. The biotech industry received a(n)【C7】______in April,【C8】______a National Academy of Sciences report【C9】______that GMO crops appear to be safe. GMO supporters called the report proof【C10】______fears of these crops are【C11】______, while critics called the report proof that the【C12】______risk of GMO crops are not【C13】______known.

选项
A、unfounded
B、unnoticed
C、untouched
D、unexpected
答案
A
解析
词汇辨析。因为主句的主语为supporters,所表达的内容应该支持转基因食品。由此判断,unfounded意为“无事实根据的”,符合前后逻辑,故是答案。 unnoticed意为“没有被注意到的”;untouched意为“没有被吃过的(食物)”; unexpected意为“未料到的”。
