问题 Animals, even the highest apes are unable to pronounce words because they have a brain comparatively __________ to that of man.
In the author’s opinion, technical progress such as inventions of gunpowder and the mariner’s compass during the civilized process cannot be __________ to the power of speech, writing and agriculture.

选项

答案comparable

解析 文章末尾提到,火药和航海指南针都不能与口头语言、书面语言及农业相提并论(gunpowder and the mariner’s compass—but neither of these can be compared...to such things as speech and writing and agriculture)。本题题干的主要结构是progress cannot be to the power,即将progress 与 power两个抽象事物进行比较,二者不属于同类事物,不能作为比较的两方,因此空中不能填compared,而只能用形容词comparable说明之间二者之间是否具有可比性。
