It was the worst tragedy in【C1】______history, six times more deadly than the Titanic.
When the German cruise ship Wilhelm Gustloff was hit by torpedoes【C2】______from a Russian submarine in the final winter of World War II, more than 10,000 people—mostly women, children and old people【C3】______the final Red Army【C4】______into Nazi Germany—were【C5】______aboard. An ice storm had turned the decks into frozen sheets that sent hundreds of families【C6】______into the sea as the ship【C7】______and began to go down. Others desperately tried to put lifeboats down. Some, who succeeded, fought【C8】______those in the water【C9】______had the strength to try to【C10】______their way aboard. Most people froze immediately. "I’ll never forget the screams," says Christa Ntitzmann, 87, one of the 1,200 survivors. She recalls【C11】______the ship, brightly lit, slipping into its dark grave— and into seeming【C12】______, rarely mentioned for more than half a century.
Now Germany’s Nobel Prize-winning author Gtinter Grass has【C13】______the memory of the 9,000 dead, including more than 4,000 children【C14】______his latest novel Crab Walk, published last month.

The reason was obvious. As Grass【C17】______it in a recent interview with the weekly Die Woche: "Because the crimes we Germans are responsible for were and are so【C18】______, we didn’t have the energy left to【C19】______our own【C20】______." [br] 【C20】
选项

B、sufferings
C、anguish
D、pains
答案
B
解析
词义辨析题 agony[U,C]“(精神或肉体的)极大痛苦”;suffering[U]“(肉体或内心的)痛苦”,[pl.]“苦恼,折磨;引起这种感觉的事或物”;anguish[U]“(肉体的或精神的)极度痛苦”;pain[C]“令人厌烦的人或事物,[U](肉体上的)疼,痛,疼痛”。文章意思为“无暇谈及我们自己的痛苦”,此处是指令他们痛苦的事,如本文提及的海难,故选B。
