Asked to name their favorite city, many Americans would select San Francisco. San Francisco began as a【S1】______Spanish outpost located on a magnificent bay. The town was little more than a village serving ranchers when the United States took【S2】______of it in 1846 during the war with Mexico.
San Francisco【S3】______into a city overnight because of the nearby discovery of gold in 1848. A【S4】______rush to California took place. Wagon trains plodded their【S5】______way across 2,000 miles of prairie and mountains, while hundreds of sailing vessels made the【S6】______hazardous trip around the Horn. The vessels disgorged thousands of passengers then the crews【S7】______their ships and hundreds of vessels were left to rot in the Bay. Within two years, California had enough population to become a【S8】______and San Francisco was for many years the hub of that newly-arrived population.
The city’s present【S9】______is due to an excellent climate, an easy style of living, good food, and numerous tourist attractions. The city is famous for its cable cars which "clang and bang" up the【S10】______hills, and for its excellent seafood stalls along the wharf. Most visitors arriving from nations in the Pacific Basin spend several days getting to know the town.
[A] deserted [F] sprang [K] steep
[B] popularity [G] pollution [L] state
[C] shrank [H] dangerous [M] hopefully
[D] small [I] seized [N] flat
[E] possession [J] equally [O] great [br] 【S6】
选项
答案
J
解析
空格处应填入副词用来修饰hazardous,while表明前后两句是对比关系,前半句是说乘坐马车是危险的,后半句是说乘坐帆船的旅程,句中“around the Horn”说明该过程也是危险的,要想表达与上句同样肯定的语气,选项中只有equally符合题意。而hopefully表示“充满希望地”,不符合文意。
