Rio De Janeiro is infamous for its high crime rate. As it prepares to 【C1】______ the 2014 World Cup and 2016 Olympic Games, the city is bracing for a flood of international 【C2】______. Given its crime-ridden (犯罪猖獗的) reputation, how well are its 【C3】______ doing in tackling the problem? But wait a moment before cancelling your flights. There are two reasons for caution.
Firstly, Brazil’s population is young, and 【C4】______ very rapidly. So you would expect the number of recorded crimes to be increasing too. What’s more meaningful is the crime rate—the number of recorded 【C5】______ per person. The crime rate in Rio seems to be increasing at a 【C6】______ rate than its population—in spite of the massive security crackdown (镇压). But despite all this, things may not be as bad as they 【C7】______. No, really. The second, and perhaps more interesting, reason for caution; it’s all about that little word "recorded".
My colleague in the FT’s Brazil bureau, Samantha Pearson, comments: "Since 2008 the authorities have started to move into the city’s poor areas and set up police posts there. Before, these areas were completely 【C8】______—if a crime happened, it would 【C9】______ be reported to the police. The rise in recorded incidents could just be because the authorities are 【C10】______ back the more dangerous areas of the city, and people are now reporting these crimes. [br] 【C4】
选项
答案
E
解析
根据句子结构可知,该空应填入动词的现在分词形式,与前面的is构成现在进行时。由空格处后一句“So you would expect the number of recorded crimes to be increasing too.”可知,巴西有记录的犯罪数量不断增加是因为“巴西人口年轻化,且______迅速。”由此推断,正是由于巴西人口的低龄化且增长快速,才导致这个国家的犯罪数量增加。E项growing“增长”与后面一句话中的。increasing相呼应,符合句意,故为答案。
