When the German cruise ship Wilhelm Gustloff was hit by torpedoes fired from a Russian submarine in the final winter of World War II, more than 10,000 people—mostly women, children and old people【C2】______the final Red Army push into Nazi Germany—were packed aboard. 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. "I’ll never forget the screams," says Christa Ntitzmann, 87, one of the 1,200 survivors. She recalls watching the ship, brightly lit, slipping into its dark grave and into seeming【C5】______, rarely mentioned for more than half a century.
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】______. As Grass put it in a recent interview with the weekly Die Woche: "Because the crimes we Germans are responsible for were and are so【C10】______, we didn’t have the energy left to tell of our own sufferings."
A. dominant B. maritime C. obvious D. nothingness
E. marine F. out G. sliding H. claw
I. emptiness J. by K. revived L. dwell
M. relived N. slipping O. fleeing [br] 【C1】
选项
答案
B
解析
maritime,词义辨析题。根据词性,此处应当填入形容词。根据上下文:不难推断出此处意为航海史上最大的海难,可选范围为“maritime,marine”,marine“船只的;海上贸易的;海军的”;maritime“海的;海上的;航海的;海事的”。此处是指航海史上最惨烈的一次海难,故maritime比marine更恰当。
