选项 A、context
B、range
C、scope
D、territory
答案 A
解析 语义搭配题。选项A)context意为“上下文”，也可译为“背景，环境”(situation)。原句又是一个强调句 型，所填空格的后面是一个定语从句，意为“我们所生活的……”，而与空格相对应的是information society(信息社会)，可以判定空格的意思应与society相近，故A)是正确答案。选项B)range意为“(气温、价格等浮动的)幅度”；选项C)scope意为“(能力、理解等的)范围”；选项D)territory意为“领土”。本题说明考生不仅要注意单词的基本意思，还应加强对单词引申义的理解。
