问题     A few months ago, I was down with a terrible cold which ended in a persistent bad cough. No matter how many different【C1】______I tried, I still couldn’ t get rid of the cough. Not only did it【C2】______my teaching but also my life as a whole. Then one day after class, a student came up to me and【C3】______traditional Chinese medicine. From her description, Chinese medicine sounded as if it had magic power that worked wonders. I was【C4】______because I knew so little about it and have never tried it before. Eventually, my cough got so much【C5】______that I couldn’ t sleep at night, so I decided to give it a try. The Chinese doctor took my pulse and asked to see my tongue, both of which were new【C6】______to me because they are both nonexistent in Western medicine. Then the doctor gave me a scraping (刮) treatment known as " Gua Sha". I was a little【C7】______at first because he used a smooth edged tool to scrape the skin on my neck and shoulders. A few minutes later, the【C8】______strokes started to produce a relieving effect and my body and mind began to【C9】______deeper into relaxation. I didn’ t feel any improvement in my condition in the first couple of days, but after a few more regular visits to the doctor, my cough started to【C10】______Then, within a matter of weeks, it was completely gone!
A) deepen I) remedies
B) experiences J) scared
C) hesitant K) sensitive
D) inconvenience L) sink
E) lessen M) temporary
F) licenses N) tremble
G) pressured O) worse
H) recommended [br] 【C8】
选项
答案 G
解析 空格前是定冠词the，空格后是名词复数strokes，因此空格处应填入形容词作定语。strokes作名词，可表示“一下，一划，一笔”。本句意为“几分钟后，那些刮擦开始产生缓解的效果”。根据常识可知，刮痧疗法是用特制的刮痧器具和相应的手法，以一定的力道对皮肤进行反复刮动、摩擦，从而达到治愈的目的。备选项中只有pressured(紧迫的，有压力的)可以与strokes搭配，表示“用力的刮擦”，符合句意，故答案为G。
