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, even【C2】______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【C4】______.
【C5】______, there is an unwritten but clearly understood code of behavior which, once 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 【C16】______to each other in the course of a single day. Very often conversational greetings are 【C17】______by comments on the weather. "Nice day, isn’t it?" "Beautiful!" may well be heard instead of "Good morning, how are you?" Although the foreigner may consider this exaggerated and comic, it is【C18】______pointing out that it could be used to his advantage. If he wants to start a conversation with a British but is at a loss to know【C19】______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.
【C18】
选项
A、reasonable
B、useful
C、worthwhile
D、meaningful
答案
C
解析
惯用衔接题。从搭配上讲,[A]reasonable“合理的”,[B]useful“有用的”和[D]meaningful“有意义的”后面都跟介词to,只有[C]worthwhile"值得的"常用于It’s worthwhile doing sth.结构,因此答案为[C]worthwhile.
