Frequent business traveler Joyce Gioia forgot more than $ 20 000 worth of jewelry in her hotel room in Italy last year. Luckily for Gioia, the jewelry was in a room safe, and staff at the hotel【C1】______the items to her home in Austin.
Travelers annually【C2】______millions of personally important items such as wallets, keys and eyeglasses behind in hotels, airports, airplanes and rental cars. Fortunately for the forgetful, many【C3】______, like Gioia’s jewelry, are returned.
Many,【C4】______, aren’t, and they are given away or sold if their owners don’t retrieve them or cannot be found. Gioia and other travelers【C5】______themselves for their forgetfulness, but psychologists say it’s quite【C6】______among travelers. "When traveling, people tend to have lots【C7】______their minds, and there are often many unexpected【C8】______," says David Meyer, a University of Michigan psychology professor.

【C11】
选项
A、disgusting
B、abnormal
C、peculiar
D、unusual
答案
D
解析
名词辨析题。这里说的是促使遗忘的第三个因素,意思是“身处熟悉的工作和家庭场所之外的相对——环境”,联系上文,本句形容的环境应该是工作和家庭场所之外的旅行中的环境,由此推断这一环境是不同平常的,故只有unusual“不寻常的,不平常的”合适。disgusting“令人厌恶的”;abnormal“反常的”;peculiar“异常的,奇怪的”。
