问题       It is commonly supposed that when a man seeks literary power he goes to his room and prepares an article for the press. But this is to begin literary culture【C1】______ the wrong end. We speak a hundred times for every【C2】______ we write. The busiest writer produces 【C3】______ more than a volume a year, not so much as his talk would【C4】______ in a week.【C5】______ through speech it is usually decided whether a man is to have【C6】______ of his language or not. If he is slovenly in his ninety-nine cases of talking, he can【C7】______ pull himself【C8】______ to strength and exactitude (精确) in the hundredth ease of writing. A person is made in one piece, and the same being runs through a 【C9】______ of performances. Whether words are uttered on paper or to the air, the effect【C10】______ the utterer is the same. Vigor or feebleness is【C11】______ accordingly as energy or slackness has been in command. I know that certain【C12】______ to a new field are often necessary. A good speaker may find awkwardness in himself, when he【C13】______ write; a good writer, when he speaks. And certainly eases occur【C14】______ a man exhibits【C15】______  strength in one of the two, speaking or writing, and not in the other. But such eases are rare.【C16】______ , language once【C17】______ our control can be employed for oral or for written【C18】______ And【C19】______ the opportunities for oral practice enormously outbalance those for written, it is the oral which are chiefly significant in the【C20】______ of literary power.
【C9】
选项 A、quantity
B、multitude
C、mass
D、crowd
答案B
解析 考查词义辨析。multitude意为“多数，众多”，a multitude of指“大量的”，在此处符合题意；quantity意为“数量”，a quantity of本身不表示什么，只有在quantity前面加一个形容词才有意义，如：a great quantity of; mass意为“一堆，一块”，多指体积大；crowd指的是人数多，意为“人群”。
