【C15】
选项
A、serious
B、infectious
C、unsafe
D、apparent
答案
B
解析
本填空考查形容词,被修饰成分为diseases。To prevent outbreaks of________diseases in plants, animals and human表达了一个目的,即“为了阻止……疾病在植物、动物和人类中的爆发”,后面的信息就是为了这个目的需要做的事情,即more study is needed on how parasites and disease-carrying species—as________as humans and other species they________—are affected by changes in the environment. 这里的线索词parasites(寄生虫)、disease. carrying species(携带疾病的生物)、affected是几个关键信息,既然研究的是这些事物,就说明这种diseases最大的特点是“传染的”,四个选项中最佳答案为B项infectious(传染性的),其他的都是无关词汇。
