So do scores of【C3】______ CEOs of smaller companies and women in other senior executive jobs.
This role change is【C4】______ more and more as women edge past men at work.

Some 23 percent of wives now earn more than their husbands. And this earnings trend is more dramatic among younger people.

[A] appealing [B] average
[C] conflict [D] currently
[E] elementary [F] ensure
[G] female [H] fill
[I] occupations [J] occurring
[K] positions [L] primary
[M] recession [N] regularly
[O] unusual
【C1】
选项
答案
O
解析
空格前面是be动词的否定形式,因此空格处需要填入形容词作表语。前一句中提到卡莉.费奥莉娜的丈夫提前退休来支持她的事业,这在当时引起了一个小轰动。原文中使用了分号,由此可知本句和前一句进行对比,当时的轰动现在不算什么,故形容词unusual为本题答案,意思为“不寻常的,与众不同的”。备选词语中形容词较多,但是能和be动词否定形式搭配,并和前句有对比意义的只能选择unusual。
