There were red faces at one of Britain’ s biggest banks recently.

The shares fell in value and the schoolboy was unable to【C1】______The band lost $ 20,000 on the【C2】______that it cannot get back because, for one thing, this young speculator does not have the money and, for another,【C3】______under eighteen, he is not legally liable for his debts. If the shares had risen in value by the same amount that they fell, he would have pocketed $ 20,000

选项
A、convincing
B、valuable
C、unusual
D、priceless
