Later called the Turners, these groups developed (49)______ organized outings of picnics, games, gymnastics, and celebrations of German culture.
Catherine Beecher promoted physical fitness for women, and felt that tight clothes not only made such exercise impossible, but actually (50)______ the natural form of women’s bodies, and could even be passed on to future generations and (51)______ the race.

答案
D
解析
本句中的not only…but…句型表明,此处应填动词的过去式与前面的made并列;再结合 made such exercise impossible推断,后半句也应表示否定意义。D. spoiled意为“破坏,损坏”,强调破坏完整性、完美性或整体感等,后接the natural form of women’s bodies时指破坏女性自然的身形,因此D项正确。J. shaped意为“塑造,使…有形”,与空后的内容搭配会造成语义矛盾(只能说塑造身形,不能说塑造自然身形),而且也不含否定意义,因此应排除J。
