Most people have typewriters and can type well prefer to type 【M1】______
their letters nowadays. There was a feeling a generation ago that
typewriting was not quite proper in social correspondence, but, in the
United States at least, the prejudice of typewriting much social 【M2】______
correspondence has disappeared. Many people, as a matter of fact,
prefer that letters written to them to be prepared on the typewriter, 【M3】______
since it makes them easier to read.
Typewriting becomes fashionable with the development of
social patterns. Mark Twain is reputed to being the world’s first 【M4】______
author to use a typewriter. His manuscript for Life on the Mississippi
arrived at the publisher neatly set down in typewritten form. On the 【M5】______
other hand, the objections to the typewriter are that it is less personal
and that it suggests that the writer was too much of a hurry to sit 【M6】______
down and write in longhand. One’s handwriting is in some ways as
much an expression of his personality like his voice, and in 【M7】______
correspondence between friends a great deal of the writer is missing
if he uses a typewriter. Therefore, the typewriter is often avoided in
letters which express friend and personal sentiments. 【M8】______
However, the typewriter had become so popular that the
Remington Company received a letter from Mark Twain, which today
seems most ironic: "I have stopped using the Type-Writer, for the
reason that I never could write a letter with it to anybody with 【M9】______
receiving a request by return mail that I would not describe the 【M10】______
machine but also state what progress I had made in using it, etc. I
don’t like to write letters, so I don’t want people to know that I own
this curiosity breeding little joker."
【M5】
选项
答案
publisher—publisher’s
解析
搭配错误。介词at和名词构成的词组通常用来表示地点、时间等,在本句中,the publisher指人,不能和at搭配,所以我们改用名词所有格,表示地点,thepublisher’s。类似的还有the barber’s,thebutcher’s等。
