One lunchtime, May Ward was doing her shopping in a local supermarket, when she suddenly slipped and fell. She was badly shaken and bruised but【C1】______nothing serious resulted. It turned out that she has slipped on some ice-cream which had been spilled on the floor. Two weeks later she wrote to the firm to claim compensation.

Since Mrs. Ward felt that she was【C5】______to compensation, she sued the firm in the Law Courts. Here the firm claimed that it did not follow, just because someone has slipped on the floor, that they must have been negligent carrying out their duties. They said that unless the customer could prove how the ice-cream came to be on the floor, and how long it had been left there before the accident happened, she had not made out a proper【C6】______against them. But the judge took a different view. He said that the accident would not have happened at all if the firm had taken【C7】______care. It was up to the firm, he said, to provide【C8】______, that the accident did not【C9】______from any negligence on their part. They would【C10】______be in a better position than the customer to establish how long the ice-cream had been spilt and explain the circumstances to the Courts.

E)innocent F)inconvenience G)derive H)maintained

选项
答案
D
解析
不定冠词a提示此处需填入名词单数形式,而且能与make out形成搭配。超市公司认为:只有证明冰激凌如何丢在地上、落在地上多久后才发生事故,沃德太太才有理由起诉。case符合语意,make out a case意为“找到充分的理由”。
