Sociologists use "power" to refer to the capacity of people to control or influence the actions of others. Sociologists study power to 【C1】______ not only who exercise it, but also why it’s exercised and who benefits from its use.
Of wealth, power and prestige, power is the hardest to measure. Most studies are nothing more than an average of 【C2】______ about where power is found. Many forms of power are so 【C3】______ hidden that only its holders know the source. Because it’s so hard to 【C4】______ , and tied to ideology, the subject of power is a source of much 【C5】______ in sociology. Some maintain that power in America is concentrated in the 【C6】______ of a few people who have a common 【C7】______ and who tend to act together. Wright Mills 【C8】______ hat America is 【C9】______ by a "power elite". Others believe that power in America is 【C10】______ among many groups and people.

The actual decisions are made by a handful of business leaders staying behind the 【C13】______ . Some are made at the lowest level, where the work is really 【C14】______ .

【C9】
选项
A、run
B、motivated
C、forwarded
D、supported
答案
A
解析
动词习惯用法题。选项A full表示“统治,运作,掌管”。选项B motivate意思是“激发,提供动机”,不合题意;选项C forward表示“促进”,但在这里评论者明显不是褒扬之辞,所以不合适;选项D support表示“支持,赡养”,也不合适。
