Discussion
Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blanks.
The most famous shipwreck in ______ is probably the Titanic, which lies on the seafloor in the North Atlantic Ocean. But shipwrecks are as old as sea voyages, and ______ ships have been found at the seafloor all over the world.
Answer: D
History, sunken fits both blanks. "The most famous shipwreck in history is probably the Titanic" is natural, and "sunken ships have been found at the seafloor all over the world" fits the sentence. Geography, science and literature do not fit the first blank, and banned, lost and drowned do not fit the second: ships are sunken, not drowned or banned. The sentence structure helps: "The most famous shipwreck in history is probably the Titanic" is followed by "But shipwrecks are as old as sea voyages", where But signals a contrast with the single famous example.
