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.
【C16】
选项
A、started
B、conducted
C、replaced
D、proposed
答案
C
解析
本填空需要填入动词的被动形式。按照动词的线索定位法,首先我们确定其主语为conversational greetings,关键把握greetings是指“对话开始时的问候语”。选项A)started表示“开始”的意思时一般使用主动语态,惯用搭配为start from sth.,因此可以排除;选项B)conducted,be conducted by是指“由谁来进行,来做某事”,不符合题意;选项D)proposed,be proposed by是指“由谁来建议”,也不符合题意;只有选项C)replaced,be replaced by指“被取代”,最为合适,即谈论开始时的问候语就被谈论天气所取代了。
