Mona Lisa’s painting is a work of art that has fascinated people around the world for decades. Many have often wondered about the features of this painting and now it seems that the mystery behind her lopsided smile may have finally been【C1】______.
An Indian physician named Mandeep Mehra believes that Lisa Gherardini, or the muse to Da Vinci’s timeless creation, was sick. Mehra’s study that reveals the medical diagnosis of the reasons behind the【C2】______of Mona Lisa has been published in the journal of Mayo Clinic Proceedings. As【C3】______by Dr. Mehra, "I don’t know how to appreciate art, but I sure do know how to make a clinical diagnosis. " She suffered from a(n)【C4】______condition of hypothyroidism or an underactive thyroid gland (甲状腺), say Mehra and his co-author. Due to this condition, she had a very evident lump in her neck, a(n)【C5】______hairline, a yellowish tint to her skin and a half-lopsided smile on her face. She also had【C6】______swollen hands, argue the authors. All of these symptoms point to one condition—hypothyroidism that is caused by an underactive thyroid gland. It is basically a severe【C7】______of iodine (碘) in the daily diet, an element which is commonly found in seafood, eggs, bread, and dairy products.
The results of the study expose that famine was a common【C8】______five centuries ago and seafood was an uncommon product. This resulted in diets that primarily【C9】______of fruit and vegetables, without any livestock or dairy components. In addition to that, it is believed that her lopsided smile can be【C10】______to a significant disability that is the result of muscle weakness.
A) acute I) exposed
B) appearance J) indispensable
C) attributed K) occurrence
D) challenged L) receding
E) claimed M) seemingly
F) consisted N) surplus
G) cracked O) visibly
H) deficiency [br] 【C3】
选项
答案
E
解析
as当连词使用时可引导非限制性定语从句,代指前面或后面的一整句话,这种从句中通常会把it和系动词省略,而直接写成“as+过去分词”的形式,故空格处应填入动词的过去分词。空格后面出现了梅拉医生所说的话,由此可知这里的as代指的是引号里的内容,故填入E)claimed。这句话的完整形式是“As it was claimed by Dr.Mehra…”,意为“正如梅拉医生所说的那样……”。
