Whom can you trust these days? It is a question posed by
David Halpern of Cambridge University, and the researchers at the
Downing Street Strategy Unit who take an interest in "social
capital". In intervals they go around asking people in assorted【M1】______
nations the question: "Generally speaking, would you say that
most people can be trusted?"
The results are fascinated. The conclusion that leaps from the【M2】______
figures and into sensational headlines are that social dislocation,【M3】______
religious decline, public scandals, family fragmentation and the
fear of crime have made us more trusting. Comparative surveys【M4】______
over 40 years suggest that British trustfulness had halved: in the【M5】______
1950s 60 per cent of us answered "yes, most people can be
trusted", in the 1980s 44 per cent, today only 29 per cent. Trust
levels also continue to fall in Ireland and the US—meanwhile, the
Norwegians, Swedes, Danes and Dutch express tremendous
confidence in one and another’s honesty: levels are actually rising.【M6】______
In Mexico and Japan the level of trust is also increasing, that is【M7】______
interesting if mild bewildering. And the Palme d’Or(金棕榈奖)【M8】______
for mutual suspect goes to the Brazilians—with less than 3【M9】______
per cent replying "yes"—and the Turks with 6.5 per cent The French,
apparently, never trusted each other and still don’t. Nevertheless we【M10】______
become less Scandinavian and more French(or Turkish)every year.
【M9】
选项
答案
suspect一suspicion
解析
词汇错误。suspect作名词表示“嫌疑人,嫌疑犯”。本句意为“相互猜忌的金棕榈奖非巴西人和土耳其人莫属”.此处是以一种幽默的方式来表明巴西人和土耳其人的信任度较低。“猜疑.怀疑”应该用suspicion,而不是suspect。
