问题     Although we already know a great deal about influenza, it is difficult for epidemiologists(流行病学家), who study infectious disease, to【C1】______when and where the next flu epidemic will occur, and how【C2】______it will be. There are three kinds of influenza virus, known as A, B and C. Influenza C virus is relatively stable and causes mild【C3】______that do not spread far through the population. The A and B types are【C4】______, and are responsible for the epidemics that cause frequent concern. Following any virus attack, the human body builds up antibodies which confer(给予)immunity to that strain of virus, but a virus with the capacity to change its character is able to bypass this【C5】______. Variability is less developed in the influenza B virus, which affects only human beings. An influenza B virus may cause a widespread epidemic but will have little effect if【C6】______into the same community soon afterwards, since nearly everyone will have built up antibodies and will be immune. The influenza A virus, which【C7】______affects animals, is extremely unstable and is responsible for some of the worst outbreaks of the disease, such as the unparalleled pandemic, or world epidemic. Accurate prediction is difficult because of the complication of the【C8】______. A particular virus may be related to one to which some of the population have【C9】______involved immunity. The extent to which it will spread will depend on factors such as its own strength, or virulence, the ease with which it can be【C10】______and the strength of the opposition it encounters. Scientists, however, have a reliable general picture of the world situation, according to which we may take some precautions.
A)partially I)epidemics
B)guess J)also
C)factors K)attacks
D)equally L)introduced
E)generally M)unstable
F)protection N)infections
G)transmitted 0)predict
H)severe
【C10】
选项
答案G
解析 此处应填动词。由can be可确定应填过去分词。本句描述的是决定病毒扩散范围的各种因素，从病毒自身的力量(strength)，毒性(virulence)，被【C10】______的容易程度，最后到人体对其抵抗情况。空处所填词应对应句子主干中的spread，也即病毒被“传染”开的容易程度，只有选G)transmitted才能使句意通顺。
