Humans are unique in the extent to which they can reflect on themselves and others. Humans are able to 【C1】______ , to think in abstract terms, to reflect on the future. A meaningless, 【C2】______ world is an insecure world. We do not like extensive insecurity. When it 【C3】______ to human behavior we infer meaning and 【C4】______ to make the behavior understandable. 【C5】______ all this means is that people develop "quasi theories" of human behavior, that is, theories that are not developed in a/an 【C6】______ scientific manner. When doing so, people believe they know 【C7】______ humans do the things they do.
Let’s consider an example. In the United States people have been 【C8】______ with tile increasing a mount of crime for several years. The extent of crime bothers us; we ourselves could be victims. But it 【C9】______ bothers us that people behave in such ways. Why can such things happen? We develop quasi theories. We 【C10】______ concerned about the high crime rate, but we now believe we 【C11】______ it: our criminal justice system is 【C12】______ ; people have grown selfish and inconsiderate as our moral values weaken 【C13】______ the influence of liberal ideas; too many people are 【C14】______ drugs. These explanations suggest possible solutions. 【C15】______ the courts; out more people in jails as examples to other lawbreaker. There is now hope that the problem of crime can be solved if only we 【C16】______ these solutions. Again, tile world is no longer meaningless nor 【C17】______ so threatening.
These quasi theories 【C18】______ serve a very important function for us. But how accurate are they? How 【C19】______ will the suggested solutions be? These questions must be answered with 【C20】______ to how people normally go about developing or attaining their quasi theories of human behavior. [br] 【C10】
选项
A、retain
B、remain
C、maintain
D、refrain
答案
D
解析
动词语义题。句意为:我们继续关注居高不下的犯罪率。选项A retain意思是“占有,保留”,通常指的是保持或维持在一个特殊的场所、条件或位置;选项B remain意思是“保持不变”,指的是继续保持同一种状态或情况,选项C maintain表示“维持,维修,”通常指对某些东西进行维护,使其不遭到损坏;而选项D refrain则表示“节制,避免,制止”,指的是克制或抑制某些东西,使其不发生。在这里只有remain可以作系动词,后面跟名词、形容词或者动名词作表语,表示继续处于某种状态。
