Every novel invites us to enter a world that is initially strange; our gradual and selective orientation to its manners --------- the infant's --------- to their environment.
(A) imitates ... welcome
(B) completes ... introduction
(C) resembles ... adjustment
(D) alters ... blindness
(E) reinforces ... resistance
〖解答〗
空格Ⅱ:观其语法结构,需在所有格(infant's)和介词(to)之间代入一名词,这可从语法结构相似的该句主语,即介于所有格(out)和介词(to)之间的名词orientation获取线索,求得同义词(C) adjustment。空格Ⅰ:在主语和宾语为同义词的情况下,代入的动词(C) resembles就完美地体现出两者间的并列关系。本题的主题是:成人之于小说,就如婴儿之于他们的环境,都会有某种陌生感,需逐渐地予以调整适应。
