An ice storm had turned the decks into frozen sheets that sent hundreds of families【C3】________ into the sea as the ship tilted and began to go down. Others desperately tried to put lifeboats down. Some, who succeeded, fought off those in the water who had the strength to try to【C4】________ their way aboard. Most people froze immediately.

Now Germany’s Nobel Prize-winning author Gtinter Grass has【C6】________ the memory of the 9,000 dead, including more than 4,000 children—with his latest novel "Crab Walk" , published last month. The book, which will come【C7】________ in English next year, doesn’t【C8】________ on the sinking; its heroine is a pregnant young woman who survives the catastrophe only to say later: "Nobody wanted to hear about it, not here in the West (of Germany) and not at all in the East." The reason was【C9】________ .

M. relived N. slipping O. fleeing [br] 【C10】
选项
答案
A
解析
上下文题。根据词性,此处应当填入形容词。下文指出“我们没有精力哀悼自己的遭遇”,因此这里强调的是德国的罪行重大,以至于为此赎罪已占据了他们大部分的精力,故选dominant“最重要的;最突出的;占支配地位的”。
