The whole world put attention to the South Asia where the tsunami happened. Before, musicians produced a "sonic tsunami”, Wall Street analysts【C1】______ "tsunamis" of bad earnings news and Japanese restaurants served "tsunami" sushi rolls. The word was used in dozens of different【C2】______ , but now it likely will appear with just one tragic meaning.
Because of the South Asian tsunami disaster that has killed more than 150,000 people, the word assumes a(n)【C3】______ solemn use, much the way "Ground Zero", for the site of the World Trade Canter, had its meaning【C4】______ from "starting point" to the canter of the Sept. 11 tragedy, said Paul Payack, head of Global Language Monitor. Payack said that since the Dec. 26 tsunami, the【C5】______ word has appeared more than 18.5 million times and been the subject of 88,000 articles in major media.
"Before Sept. 11, 2001, the term ground zero was a business cliche meaning starting point, especially when【C6】______ a project over again as in ’going back to ground zero’. That term now represents what many consider to be hallowed ground end its old usage is rarely【C7】______ ," he said.
"In the same manner, we envision that the word tsunami will be the subject of considerable discretion before being used in anything other than a most【C8】______ manner," he said. Payack said thousands of【C9】______ teams around the world use tsunami into their names, like the Tsunami Aquatics Swim team of Livermore, California.
He said there am also some 10,000 products called tsunami, like Tsunami Point-to-Point Wireless Bridges, Tsunami Multimedia Speakers and Tsunami Image Processors. Newspaper headline writers also liked the【C10】______ word, as the Detroit News’ "Ford Releases a Tsunami of New Products" and "Heading for the presidency on a tsunami of visions" in London’s The Times.
[A] colorful [I] foolish
[B] concerts [J] solely

[E] pursuing [M] employed
[F] contexts [N] foresaw
[G] usably [O] sports
[H] beginning [br] 【C6】
选项
答案
H
解析
该空格前为引导时间状语的连词when,因此空格处应选动词现在分词与后面的project构成动宾搭配。原句意为“在2001年9月11日之前,归零地是个商业套语,意为起点,特别是当就像‘回到归零地’所描述的那样重新______一个项目时”,因此所选单词应意为“开始”,H(开始)最适合。选项E虽然也为现在分词形式,但pursue意为“(继续)从事或忙于”,与原文不符,故排除。
