单选题 Their society has found a biological trigger to shut down human feeling, creating cold,_____, orderly communities where the people resemble mildly judgmental robots.
A.tortuous
B.credulous
C.placid
D.arrogant
正确答案: C
答案解析: 本题考查形容词语义搭配。tortuous意为“弯弯曲曲的”,credulous意为“轻信的”,placid意为“温和的,平静的”,arrogant意为“傲慢的”。根据题干,此处应填入一个恰当的形容词来修饰communities (社区),并与下文the people resemble mildly judgemental robots在语义上相搭配,选项中只有placid (平静的)最为符合,故C选项符合题意。
