Some historian say that the most important contribution of Dwight Eisenhower’s presidency (总统任期) in the 1950s was the U.S. interstate highway system. It was a【C1】________project, easily surpassing the scale of such previous human【C2】________as the Panama Canal.

The Pentagon built the network for military contractors and universities doing military research to【C8】________information. In 1983 the National Science Foundation (NSF), whose mission is to promote science, took over.
This new NSF network【C9】________more and more institutional users, many of which had their own internal networks. For example, most universities that joined the NSF network had intra-campus computer networks. The NSF network then became a connector for thousands of other networks. As a backbone system that interconnects networks, internet was a name that fit.
So we can see that the Internet is the wired infrastructure (基础设施) on which web messages move. It began as a military communication system, which expanded into a government-funded【C10】________research network.
Today, the Internet is a user-financed system tying intuitions of many sorts together into an "information superhighway."
A) bound E) unifies I) connects M) exchange
B) personalities F) exclusive J) origins N) individuals
C) comparatively G) civilian K) attracted O) massive
D) endeavors H) radically L) concise [br] 【C2】
选项
答案
D
解析
名词辨义题。根据空格前的such precious human和空格后的as the Panama Canal可知,此处需要填入一个名词。和human一起构成一个名词短语,用于such…as…的句型中。备选词汇中只有endeavors符合此处语境。such previous human endeavors as the Panama Canal表示“像之前修建巴拿马运河一样所付出的努力”,故选D。
