二、完形填空(共12小题;每小题1分,满分12分)
The RPS exam was supposed to start ten minutes ago. Persephone would be the first to face such a one-time-only pass-or-fail test. ____11____ meant becoming a Decider, a member of the Global Legislature (立法机关). Failure meant a ____12____ role, who could lead, but couldn’t decide. It would be a good enough life, but it wasn’t for Persephone. She wanted to ____13____ the world. The only way to do that was to pass this test.
A quick turn and a tangled (杂乱 ) foot sent her into the Proctor’s (考官) office. “Number one?” Persephone ____14____. “We’ve been waiting for you. Take your place. The test can finally begin.”
“In this test, there are three ____15____ answers. The first is stone, the second paper, and the third scissors. Stone breaks scissors but is caught by paper. Paper catches stone but is cut by scissors. And scissors can cut paper but are broken by stone. I will choose one from the three, and so will you. The students who ____16____ the wisest answer will become Deciders.”
Persephone’s mind raced. All her years of work climbing to the top of her class would come down to this a game of chance? In the end the whole world was all up to chance? No. Nothing in her twelve years on the road here had been that ____17____. Persephone took a deep breath and made her ____18____ carefully.
Later, each student sat down with the Proctor to ____19____ the result. Persephone was the last to enter the room. The Proctor sat at a red table. “During the RPS, you chose Stone. You saw what I had. You knew that paper would beat me. But why did you choose to tie (平局)?” “The game is a test. I knew that I could beat you, but you didn’t ask me to beat you. You asked me to choose wisely. It is not wise to want to destroy (摧毁) your competitor. It is also not correct to ____20____. One must stand up for what one knows is right. The wise answer is to meet on an even (公平的) field, stone on stone. And only this can create ____21____ for all.”
