B. fail
解析
本题考查对形似单词词义的辨析。解题的关键在于理解每个选项单词的含义,并结合句子的语境来判断哪个单词能使句子逻辑通顺。
- A选项“fell”:“fell”是“fall”的过去式,“fall”常见的意思是“落下;跌倒” ,例如 “Leaves fall in autumn.(秋天树叶落下。)” ,将其代入句子 “Scientists could see many things that most people would fell to see.” ,句子逻辑不通,所以A选项不符合。
- B选项“fail”:“fail”有“未能;失败”的意思,“fail to do sth.” 是固定用法,表示“未能做某事”。把 “fail” 代入句子 “Scientists could see many things that most people would fail to see.” ,句子意思为“科学家们能看到很多大多数人看不到的东西”,逻辑合理,所以B选项正确。
- C选项“fall”:如前面所述,“fall”意为“落下;跌倒”,代入句子 “Scientists could see many things that most people would fall to see.” ,句子无法表达合理的意思,所以C选项不正确。
- D选项“fill”:“fill”的意思是“装满;填满”,常见搭配是 “fill...with...” ,例如 “Fill the bottle with water.(把瓶子装满水。)” ,代入句子 “Scientists could see many things that most people would fill to see.” ,句子逻辑混乱,所以D选项不合适。
