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] 【C8】
选项
答案
K
解析
空格出现在不定冠词a和形容词common之后,故应填入名词。这句话如果把不定冠词a和空格去掉,语法依然正确,句意也依然通顺,由此推测,空格处填入的名词应该是没有太多实际意义的抽象名词,具有这种功能的名词只有K)occurrence“发生,发生的事情”,一般代指前面出现的名词。这里是指“五个世纪以前,饥荒是很常见的事情”。
