Virtually every activity that entails or facilitates in-person human interaction seems to be in the midst of a total meltdown as the coronavirus (冠状病毒) outbreak erases Americans’ desire to travel. Amtrak says bookings are down 50 precent and cancelations are up 300 percent. Hotels in San Francisco are experiencing【C1】______rates between 70 and 80 percent. Broadway goes dark on Thursday night. Universities, now emptying their campuses, have never tried online learning on this【C2】______.White-collar companies like Amazon, Apple, and the New York Times are asking employees to work from home for the【C3】______future.
But what happens after the coronavirus?
In some ways, the answer is: All the old normal stuff. The pandemic (大流行病) will take lives,【C4】______economies and destroy routines, but it will pass. Americans will never stop going to basketball games. They won’t stop going on vacation. They’ll meet to do business. No decentralizing technology so far—not telephones, not television, and not the internet—has dented that human desire to shake hands, despite technologists’【C5】______to the contrary.
Yet there are real reasons to think that things will not return to the way they were last week. Small【C6】______create small societal shifts; big ones change things for good. The New York transit strike of 1980 is【C7】______with prompting several long-term changes in the city, including bus and bike lanes, and women wearing sports shoes to work. The Spanish flu pandemic of 1918 prompted the development of national health care in Europe.
Here and now, this might not even be a question of【C8】______It’s not clear that the cruise industry will【C9】______Or that public transit won’t go broke without【C10】______assistance. The infrastructure might not even be in place to do what we were doing in 2019.
A) credentials F) foreseeable K) subtle
B) credited G) predictions L) summoned
C) cumulative H) preference M) survive
D) disruptions I) scale N) vacancy
E) federal J) strangle O) wedge [br] 【C6】
选项
答案
D
解析
[语法判断]空格前为形容词Small,后为动词create,因此空格处应填入名词的复数形式作主语。[语义判断]从后文的strike“罢工”和flu pandemic“流感大流行”可知,空格处应填入一个表示对社会造成危害的贬义词。复数名词的备选项中只有disruptions“扰乱,打乱”符合语境,因此D)disruptions为本题答案。
