The problem with today’s housing crisis, politically, is that it is just not all that visible. At the end of the Second World War, families with kids【C1】________into shared houses. In 1946, more than 46,000 families took over military camps, empty hotels and flats. That was a(n)【C2】________housing crisis. Today’s does not come【C3】________: most people still have somewhere to live.
It is nonetheless【C4】________, and worthy of political attention. But the question of exactly why our expensive homes【C5】________a crisis is more subtly depicted than it can appear. Since 1973 at least, the total number of "dwellings" has climbed far faster than the population. How is this possible,【C6】________that building rates have【C7】________? And doesn’t it mean that there isn’t really a housing crisis?
First, in the 1960s and 1970s, while councils happily knocked【C8】________new estates, they were also busy pulling down lots of old "【C9】________" houses too. Social housing helped people move from broken old crowded houses into【C10】________new flats or houses, typically with much more【C11】________.
Meanwhile, new homes were built on green fields. Average household sizes【C12】________dramatically, even as the average house got bigger. Though the housing stock【C13】________by less than the rate of building,【C14】________got a lot more space in which to live.
In recent decades,【C15】________, everyone has got a lot less space. We have had【C16】________little new building, but【C17】________we have magically created lots of new housing. Essentially, so far, the housing crisis has been【C18】________by subdividing our homes to【C19】________the extra population growth.【C20】________what new homes we do build are the smallest in the developed world.
【C10】
选项
A、comfortable
B、luxurious
C、shiny
D、common
答案
C
解析
本空需填入一个形容词来修饰flats和houses,此空后已经有一个形容同new,那本空填入的是和new并列的形容词,从上下文看文章没有具体描述新房子是否豪华或舒适,因此只需填入描述新房子普遍特征的形容词,C项shiny“光亮的”符合要求。文章只是讲述普遍的新房子,没有涉及新房子是否comfortable“舒服的”(A项)或luxurious“奢侈的”(B项)。空格处的词与new并列.所以应为表积极感情色彩的词,common“普通的”(D项)为中性词,也排除。
