Many executives have【C1】______that this tool is beyond their grasp, available only to the charismatic(有超凡魅力的)and the eloquent(有口才的).

Their research shows that【C3】______is governed by several principles that can be taught and applied.

Second, people are more willing to【C5】______with those who are not only like them but who like them, as well. So it’s【C6】______the time to uncover real similarities and offer genuine praise.
    Third, experiments confirm the【C7】______that people tend to treat you the way you treat them. It’s sound policy to do a favor before seeking one. Fourth, individuals are more【C8】______to keep promises they make voluntarily and explicitly. The message for managers here is to get commitments in writing. Fifth, studies show that people【C9】______do defer to(尊重,顺从)experts. Finally, people want more of a commodity when it’s scarce; it follows, then, that【C10】______information is more persuasive than widely available data.

选项

答案J

解析 分析句子结构,由空格后的系动词is可知此处要填入一个名词作主语。联系上下文,上文讲到要想具有说服力,需要学习和应用几条原则(several principles),这一段是开始逐一介绍这些principle。故此空要填principle。
