问题     Everyone knows that taxation is necessary in a modern state. Without it, it would be impossible to pay the soldiers and policemen who protect us; nor the workers in government offices who look【C1】______our health, our food, our water, and all the other things that we can not do ourselves;【C2】______the persons who govern the country for us.【C3】______means of taxation, we pay for things that we need just as much as we need【C4】______to live and something to eat.
    Though everyone knows that taxation is necessary, different people have different【C5】______about how taxation should be arranged. Should each person have to【C6】______a certain amount of money to the government each year? Or should there be a tax on things people buy and sell? If the first kind of taxation is used, should everyone pay the same tax,【C7】______he or she is rich or poor? If the second kind of tax is used, should everything be taxed equally? In most countries, a direct tax on persons, called an income tax, is used. It is arranged in【C8】______a way that the poor people pay nothing, and the【C9】______of tax grows greater as the taxpayer’s income grows. In some countries, for example, the tax on the【C10】______people goes as high as 90 or 95 percent.
【C4】
选项 A、anywhere
B、wherever
C、nowhere
D、somewhere
答案D
解析 句中的and是个表示并列关系的连接词，从and后面的something to eat从得知and前面应该是somewhere to live，所以正确答案为D项somewhere(某个地方)。A项any—where(任何地方)、B项wherever(无论何地)和C项nowhere(没有地方)均不符合句子意思的要求。
