问题    If someone says you are smart, what do they mean? Is it a good thing or something bad? The answer is not as easy as you might think. This is because the word "smart" has many meanings.【C1】______, someone could say you look smart or are dressed smartly. That means they like【C2】______you are wearing and your physical【C3】______. To use a slang(俚语) expression, they could say, "You look【C4】______cool!"
   But if something smarts, it can be【C5】______or hurtful, either physically or mentally. If you accidentally trip over a chair and【C6】______, you might shout, "Wow! That smarts!" Or if a friend says something that【C7】______your feelings, you can say you are smarting from the upsetting【C8】______.
   If you are standing too close to a campfire, you could say your eyes are smarting from the smoke of the fire. Here the word "smarting" means a sharp【C9】______. But the most common meaning of smart is to be intelligent. If someone is smart as a whip(鞭子) , they have the【C10】______to think very quickly.
   People have【C11】______ways of being smart. Some people are considered street smart. They may not have a strong education. But they are【C12】______in dealing with people and problems in the real world. Other people might be book smart. This means they have spent many years in school. But when dealing with people or problems【C13】______existing in our world they may not be so smart.
   And then there is another【C14】______of smart that means talking or behaving disrespectfully. If you say something disrespectful to your parents, they might【C15】______, " Don’ t get smart with me!" Here, "smart" means showing a lack of respect by saying something mean.
【C12】
选项 A、involved
B、interested
C、fortunate
D、expert
答案D
解析 involved：有关的，涉及的；interested：感兴趣的；fortunate：幸运的；expert： 熟练的，内行的。由本句中的But可知，前后两句为转折关系，因此这里表达的是“被 认为有街头智慧的人也许没受过好的教育，但他们很擅长与现实生活中的人打交道 和处理现实中的问题”。故选D。
