Short stories are due a revival. In recent years, there have been critically【C1】______ collections by American writers such as Lydia Davis and Junot Diaz. But few others manage to【C2】______ the bestseller lists, and they are all too often overshadowed by novels. In contrast to their heyday in the early 20th century, short stories are mostly viewed as trials or experiments before an author【C3】______ with the real thing.
John Burnside, a Scottish poet and novelist,【C4】______ this fixed idea in his latest collection, "Something Like Happy". Over 13 stories, Mr. Burnside shows the versatility of the condensed form. His stories take place mostly in Scotland, in flats "high up on the third floor of an apartment block in the middle of Dundee" or in the back room of a hardware shop,【C5】______ men drink "sweet, milky coffee" while waiting for the results of the races. His men carry knives or conduct extramarital【C6】______; his women are often lonely housewives who drink, take up bell-ringing in their local church or fantasise about younger men as a way of filling in time.
Happiness is the subject that【C7】______ the collection together. In other hands, this could become sentimental. But Mr. Burnside, with only a few【C8】______, never allows that to happen.
Instead, happiness frequently stays away from these figures; so much so that they have almost ceased to【C9】______ it. Rooted in the bleaker aspects of Scotland’s landscapes, it is something that his characters continually search for, in these concise and poetic tales—yet【C10】______ to find.
【C7】
选项
答案
K
解析
空格应填入动词作定语从句的谓语,表明主语the subject与宾语collection的关系。空格后的together“一起”,表明“这一主题是贯穿整个短篇集”的,词库中的ties“把……绑一起”代入空格,能表达这种意思,故为答案。
