Generally speaking, a British is widely regarded as a quiet, shy and conservative person who is【C1】________only among those with whom he is acquainted. When a stranger is at present, he often seems nervous,【C2】________embarrassed. You have to take a commuter train any morning or evening to【C3】________the truth of this. Serious-looking businessmen and women sit reading their newspapers or dozing in a corner; hardly anybody talks, since to do so would be considered quite offensive.【C4】________, there is no such a written rule, a commonly understood code of behavior which,【C5】________broken, makes the offender immediately the object of【C6】________ .
It has been known as a fact that a British has a【C7】________for the discussion of their weather and that, if given a chance, he will talk about it【C8】________. Some people argue that it is because the British weather seldom【C9】________forecast and hence becomes a source of interest and【C10】________to everyone. This may be so.【C11】________a British cannot have much【C12】________in the weathermen, who, after promising fine, sunny weather for the following day, are often proved wrong【C13】________a cloud over the Atlantic brings rainy weather to all districts! The man in the street seems to be as accurate—or as inaccurate—as the weathermen in his【C14】________ .
Foreigners may be surprised at the number of references【C15】________ weather that the British make to each other in the course of a single day. Very often conversational greetings are【C16】________by comments on the weather. "Nice day, isn’t it?" "Beautiful!" may well be heard instead of "Good morning, how are you?"【C17】________the foreigner may consider this exaggerated and comic, it is worthwhile pointing out that it could be used to his advantage.【C18】________he wants to start a conversation with a British but is【C19】________to know where to begin, he could do well to mention the state of the weather. It is a safe subject which will【C20】________ an answer from even the most reserved of the British.
【C7】
选项
A、emotion
B、fancy
C、likeliness
D、avoidance
答案
B
解析
本填空考查名词,需要我们首先从原文中寻找提示线索。本填空之后的原文信息为for the discussion of their weather(谈论天气)。我们首先需要确定英国人是否愿意谈论天气;后面的原文已知信息马上给出了提示:if given a chance,he will talk about it(只要给机会,他们愿意谈论天气);如果再扩大点视野,把文章后面的信息扫一眼,就可以断定英国人非常爱谈论天气。因此排除选项D)avoidance(避免,回避);而选项C)likeliness表示“可能性”,也不合适;选项A)emotion表示“情绪、情感”,其意思与本题有些远;只有选项B)fancy表示“热爱、有极大的兴趣”的意思,所以为最佳选项。
