Aged 17, I developed anorexia(厌食症). I didn’t realize it at the time; it was something that __17__, rather than “began”. When I was 23, I was diagnosed(诊断) as __18__ anorexic. I had fasttracked __19__ at the Maudsley Hospital in South London and __20__ 2.5 years of therapy(心理治疗). People are always __21__ to know what helped me recover and among many things, it was simple: comedy.
I’m a __22__ standup comic. Comedy, for me, began as a __23__ and has unbelievably progressed into a job. One of the things that __24__ attracted me about standup is how it plays with pain. Let me explain.
The word “comedy” is believed to __25__ the Ancient Greek “kōmos” meaning “to reveal things”. It is comedy’s __26__ to “reveal” things, to analyze, explain and understand things. This was something I turned to when I was in __27__ from anorexia. I’d never been able to explain what was going on inside my head. So, humor became a way of __28__ things.

A
come from
B
turn into
C

D

正确答案 :A
解析
根据空后的the Ancient Greek “kōmos” meaning “to reveal things”可知,古希腊词“kōmos”正是“comedy”这个词的来源,故此处应表示“comedy(喜剧)”这个词源自古希腊词“kōmos”。come from来自;turn into变成;make up构成;give up放弃,故本题答案为A。
