  (A) synoptic

  (B) abridged

  (C) sensational

  (D) copious

  (E) lurid

  (F) understand

  KEY: AB

  关键字:given表示因果,the only way特殊否定空格中应该填入一个形容词,用来修饰accounts。前后两句话之间通过given来连接,表示“鉴于……”,构成因果同义关系。但后半句中有the only way作为特殊否定词存在,因而应该选择与对应词语相反意思的词语填入空格中。前面说现今的信息很多,那后面所应该填入的就是一种“少”的信息,这样才能够让人们能够有足够精力去“keep abreast of the new”。词语解释:

  [1].(A) synoptic:(概要的)affording a general view of a whole

  [2].(B) abridged:(删减的)shortened in duration or extent

  [3]. (C) sensational:(轰动的)exceedingly or unexpectedly excellent or great
