问题     Increasingly, the development of tourism is seen to have an effect on the environment. Erosion(磨损)is one problem. The steps and stones of major popular【C1】______like Shakespeare’s birthplace or Stonehenge(巨石阵)are literally being worn away by millions of foreign feet. The【C2】______in the case of Britain’s best known prehistoric monument has been to use railings to keep visitors at a distance. Such measures can hardly be【C3】______in the house of the Bard, however, where tourists want to enter the actual building.

【C1】

选项 A、residence
B、dwellings
C、monuments
D、sites

答案D

解析 四个选项的意思有点相近。A项residence指“住处,住所”;B项dwelling指“住宅,寓所”;C项monument指“纪念馆;碑”;D项site指“旧址,遗址”。从此句所举的例句Shakespeare’s birthplace or Stonehenge(莎士比亚出生地或巨石阵)看,正确答案显然应为D。
