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【C3】________by novels.【C4】________their heyday in the early 20th century, short stories are mostly viewed as trials or experiments before an author【C5】________with the real thing.
John Burnside, a Scottish poet and novelist,【C6】________, this fixed idea in his latest collection, "Something Like Happy". Over 13 stories, Mr Burnside shows the versatility of the condensed【C7】________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,【C8】________men drink "sweet, milky coffee"【C9】________waiting for the results of the races.

Happiness is the subject that【C13】________the collection together. In other hands, this could become sentimental.【C14】________Mr Burnside, with only a few【C15】________, never allows that to happen.

【C9】
选项
A、like
B、while
C、once
D、for
答案
B
解析
根据文中信息,男人喝“加奶的甜咖啡”和等待比赛结果这两个动作是同时进行的,并不冲突,故答案选B项while,表示在喝咖啡时等待比赛结果。空格后为现在分词短语,故可首先排除词后需接从句的连词once;另外空格后的“等待比赛结果”与前面的“喝甜牛奶咖啡”不构成列举(like)或因果关系(for),而应该是在等待赛果期间喝咖啡,故排除A项和D项。
