They could not even defend themselves by running swiftly like the horses, zebras or small animals. If the ape-men had attempted to compete on those terms in the open, they would have been【C2】______to failure and extinction.

选项
答案
H
解析
此处要填一个动词,此处原文意为“类人猿一 —一种唯一有可能解决的办法”。句子缺一动词,而“解决办法”一般搭配的谓语动词是“采取,采用”,选项中,adopt意为“采用,采纳,采取”。因此,正确答案是H。
