The cowboy had to 【S2】______ his herd from the dangers of 【S3】______ animals and thieves, from snowstorms, tornadoes(龙卷风), and desert sunstroke(中暑). He 【S4】______ broken bones and being kicked or dragged to death. He often had no companion but his horse during days and nights of lonely keeping 【S5】______ of his herd. And yet his principle of living, which permitted a kind of rough and tough manner, allowed no complaining. The cowboy was 【S6】______ a person who had great self-control, who could 【S7】______ pain and discomfort without complaint and was very proud, "an aristocrat(贵族) among the working men of the Old West." Today’s cowboy has been modernized. His faithful companion and most valuable tool, 【S8】______, has been replaced by the automobile, the jeep, even the airplane; his way of 【S9】______ has been simplified, replaced by blue jeans and nylon shirts. But his traditional 【S10】______ is still being preserved. In folk festivals throughout the west, adventure-seekers can still thrill to the spectacle and dangers of saddling wild horses, riding bareback, roping and wrestling bulls.
Word Bank:
A. risked I. preserve
B. bitterly J. wild
C. notice K. strangely
D. seldom L. protect
E. horse M. watch
F. dressing N. always
G. bear O. living
H. image
选项
答案
B
解析
hard是形容词,前面要用副词来修饰,D、K两项均为副词,那么从句意上判断,牛仔的生活并不像好莱坞电影展现的那样浪漫,他们的生活通常是相当辛苦的,bitterly苦涩地,非常,修饰hard贴切。strangely奇怪的,不符合应排除。
