问题     Faces, like fingerprints, are【C1】______Did you ever wonder how it is possible for us to recognize people? Even a【C2】______writer probably could not describe all the features that make one face different from another. Yet a very young child— or even an animal,【C3】______a pigeon — can learn to【C4】______faces. We all take this【C5】______for granted.
    We also tell people apart by【C6】______they behave. When we talk about someone’s person-ality, we mean the ways【C7】______which he or she acts, speaks, thinks and feels【C8】______make that individual different from others.
    【C9】______the human face, human personality is very complex. But describing someone’s 【C10】______in words is somewhat easier than describing his face. If you were asked to describe what a "nice face" looked like, you probably would have a【C11】______time doing so. But if you were asked to describe a "nice【C12】______", you might begin to think about someone who was kind, considerate, friendly, warm, and so forth.
    There are many words to describe how a person thinks, feels and acts. Gordon Allports, an American psychologist, found nearly 18,000 English words【C13】______differences in people’s behavior. And many of us use this information as a basis for describing, or typing, his personality. Bookworms, conservatives, military types—people【C14】______with such terms.
    People have always tried to "type" each other. Actors in early Greek drama wore【C15】______to show the audience【C16】______they played the villain’s or the hero’s role.【C17】______the words "person" and "personality" come from the Latin persona, meaning "mask". Today, most television and movie actors do not wear masks. But we can【C18】______tell the "good guys"【C19】______the "bad guys" because the two types differ in【C20】______as well as in actions.
【C2】

选项 A、skillful
B、skilled
C、good
D、gifted

答案B

解析 形容词辨析题。skillful和skilled都是“熟练的,有技能的”意思,但通常用法为be skillful in/at sth.,不用来修饰人;而skilled用来修饰人,通常用法为a skilled worker;good是“好的”,意思太宽泛,gifted表示“有天赋的”。句子的意思是“即使技巧娴熟的作家多半也无法描绘出一张与众不同的面孔的所有特征”,所以选择skilled。
