【解析】

本篇文章難度適中，主要講述卡蒂布曼通過不懈的努力成功拍攝到了黑洞的照片。

【1】句意“這幅畫立刻變得出名了”。

根據(jù)系動詞become可知，后跟形容詞。根據(jù)For the first time in history“歷史上第一次”可知，表示“出名的”。famous出名的，故答案是famous。

【2】句意“沒有她的努力，具有歷史意義的圖象是不可能的”。

根據(jù)空后名詞effort可知，空處用形容詞性物主代詞，根據(jù)前文a computer scientist，Katie Bouman可知，填her，她的，故答案是her。

【3】句意“拍攝這樣的一個照片是不容易的”。

根據(jù)It is +adj +to do sth可知，空處用be動詞，且根據(jù)上下文可知，用一般現(xiàn)在時is，根據(jù)Black holes are very far away可知，黑洞太遠(yuǎn)，所以拍攝黑洞的照片不容易，用否定形式，故答案是isn't。

【4】句意“然而，他們當(dāng)中沒有人成功”。

根據(jù)句式可知，空處用謂語。根據(jù)Many scientists had tried“許多科學(xué)家嘗試”以及however可知，表示“沒有人成功”。succeed動詞，成功，根據(jù)句意可知，用一般過去時，故答案是succeeded。

【5】句意“這些年來，她已經(jīng)不斷改進(jìn)這個項(xiàng)目”。根據(jù)空前the可知，空處用名詞。根據(jù)the scientist started working on a special computer programme“科學(xué)家開始從事一個特殊的計(jì)算機(jī)程序”可知，她已經(jīng)改進(jìn)了這個項(xiàng)目。programme名詞，項(xiàng)目，故答案是programme。

【6】句意“我們誰也不能一個人做這件事”。根據(jù)She says the efforts of her colleagues（同事）were important，too“她說她的同事的努力也很重要”可知，表示“不能一個人做這件事”。alone副詞，獨(dú)自地，故答案是alone。
