问题     Geography is the study of the relationship between people and the land. Geographers compare and contrast various places on the earth. But they also【C1】______beyond the individual places and consider the earth as a whole. The English word geography means "to describe the earth. "【C2】______geography books focus on a small area like a town or city. Others deal with a state, a region, a nation, or an【C3】______continent. Many geography books deal with the whole earth. Another【C4】______to divide the study of geography is to distinguish between physical geography and cultural geography. The former focuses on the natural world; the【C5】______starts with human beings and studies how human beings and their environment act【C6】______each other. But when geography is considered as a single subject, 【C7】______branch can neglect the other. A geographer might be described as one who observes, records, and explains the【C8】______between places. If all places【C9】______alike, there would be little need for geographers. We know, however, that no two places are exactly the same. Geography, 【C10】______is a point of view, a special way of looking at place.
【C3】
选项 A、extensive
B、entire
C、overall
D、enormous
答案B
解析 根据上下文意义来看，本句讲的是另一些书描述的是一个州、一个地区、一个国家或者整个大陆，与上句的small area“小片地区”相对。entire意思是“整个的，全部的”，用来修饰continent，符合句子的意义，因而是答案。A项extensive“广泛的”和D项enormous“巨大的”用在此处不符合句子的意义。C意为overall“总的；全面的”，常用于修饰抽象名词，不用于修饰具体事物，如：an overall impression“总的印象”，the overall situation“总的局势”，此处也不能选用。
