To get a sense of how women have progressed in science, take a quick tour of the physics department at the University of California, Berkeley. This is a storied place, the【C1】______of some of the most important discoveries in modern science-starting with Ernest Lawrence’ s invention of the cyclotron(回旋加速器)in 1931. A generation ago, female faces were【C2】______and, even today, visitors walking through the first floor of LeConte Hall will see a full corridor of exhibits【C3】______the many distinguished physicists who made history here,【C4】______all of them white males.
But climb up to the third floor and you’ 11 see a【C5】______display. There, among the photos of current faculty members and students, are portraits of the【C6】______head of the department, Marjorie Shapiro, and four other women whose research【C7】______everything from the mechanics of the universe to the smallest particles of matter. A sixth woman was hired just two weeks ago. Although they’ re still only about 10 percent of the physics faculty, women are clearly a presence here. And the real【C8】______may be in the smaller photos to the right; graduate and undergraduate students, about 20 percent of them female. Every year Berkeley sends its fresh female physics PhDs to the country’ s top universities. That makes Shapiro optimistic, but also【C9】______" I believe things are getting better," she says," but they’ re not getting better as【C10】______as I would like."
[A]circumstance[B]confidence
[C]covers[D]current
[E]deals[F]different
[G]exposing[H]fast
[I]honoring[J]hope
[K]presently[L]rare
[M]realistic[N]site
[O]virtually
【C2】
选项
答案
L
解析
所填词位于句子的表语位置,因此此空应填入形容词或者名词作表语。根据句意“在上一代的时候,女性的面孔还是——。”可知,L项rare(罕见的)最合适。根据and后面分句中的and of them white males可进一步确定,女性面孔在上一代人中间比较罕见。
