    Some years ago I was offered a writing assignment that would require three months of travel through Europe. I had been abroad a couple of times, but I could hardly【C1】________ to know my way around the continent. Moreover, my knowledge of foreign languages was【C2】________ to a little college French.
    I hesitated. How would I, unable to speak the language,【C3】________ unfamiliar with local geography or transportation systems, set up interviews and do research? It seemed impossible, and with considerable【C4】________ I sat down to write a letter begging off. Halfway through, a thought ran through my mind: you can’t learn if you don’t try. So I accepted the assignment.
    There were some bad moments,【C5】________ by the time I had finished the trip I was an experienced traveler. And ever since, I have never【C6】________ to head for even the most remote of places, without guides or even【C7】________ bookings, confident that somehow I will manage. The point is that the new, the different, is almost by definition【C8】________. But each time you try something, you learn, and as the learning【C9】________, the world opens to you.
    I’ve learned to ski at 40, and flown up the Rhine River in a balloon. And I know I’ll go on doing such things. It’s not because I’m braver or more daring than others. I’m not. But I’ll accept anxiety as another name for【C10】________ and I believe I can accomplish wonders. [br] 【C8】
选项
答案 N
解析 空白处缺形容词、分词或名词，作表语。根据后一句中的转折词But及try something，you learn可知，这一句说的是人们通常所持的、不那么好的观点，因此选scary“吓人的”。注意句中短语by definition意为“显然地”。
