Serious-looking businessmen and women sit reading their newspapers or dozing in a corner; no one speaks. In fact, to do so would seem most usual.【C4】______ , there is here an unwritten but clearly understood code of behavior which,【C5】______ broken, makes the person immediately the object of【C6】______
It is a well-known fact that the English have a【C7】______ for the discussion of their weather and that, given half a chance, they will talk about it【C8】______ . Some people argue that it is because English weather【C9】 ______ forecast and hence is a source of interest and【C10】______ to everyone.
This may be so.【C11】______ Englishmen cannot have much【C12】______ in the weathermen, who, after promising fine, sunny weather for the following day, are often proved wrong【C13】______ a cloud over the Atlantic brings rainy weather to all districts!

【C1】
选项
A、entertained
B、relaxed
C、amused
D、enlightened
答案
B
解析
因为前文指出了“英国人安静、羞涩、保守”,这里要讲,“他们仅仅在熟悉的人中间才…”,显然,选用relaxed(vi放松)符合文意。所以答案为B。entertain vt.娱乐;amuse vt.使发笑,使愉快;enlighten vt.启发,启蒙,教导等都不符合题意。
