In the years prior to the Civil War, Philadelphia’s African American press encourage readers to be vaccinated against smallpox. This journalistic campaign was initially (i)_____, appealing to readers sense of communal duty, and became even more (ii)_____ once the war started, as smallpox outbreaks began to occur on Philadelphia’s outskirts.
答案:
AE
解析:
even more能看出前后兩個(gè)空格有遞進(jìn)關(guān)系,appearing to說(shuō)明剛開(kāi)始只是一種勸告,吸引大家做這件事,后來(lái)變得緊急了。
So,符合這個(gè)遞進(jìn)關(guān)系的是AE選項(xiàng)。hortatory勸告的,urgent緊迫的。
其他選項(xiàng):ineffective無(wú)效的,widespread廣泛傳播的,controversial有爭(zhēng)議的,inopportune不合適的。
翻譯:
在內(nèi)戰(zhàn)開(kāi)始的前幾年,美國(guó)費(fèi)城非裔美國(guó)人新聞社鼓勵(lì)讀者們接種天花疫苗。這項(xiàng)宣傳運(yùn)動(dòng)本來(lái)是為了激起人們的公眾責(zé)任感知,后來(lái)戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)開(kāi)始后甚至變得更加緊迫起來(lái),因?yàn)橘M(fèi)城的郊區(qū)已經(jīng)出現(xiàn)了天花感染病例。
