In the presence of strangers or foreigners he often seams inhibited. 【22】______ embarrassed. You have only to 【23】______ a commuter train any morning or evening to see the truth of this.

选项
A、Obviously
B、Contrarily
C、Frequently
D、Practically
答案
A
解析
考查副词辨义和上下文理解。由上下文可以看出,空格所在句是对前一句进行的说明。前一句说,“这样做似乎很不正常”,而这一句说“这里有一条不成文但大家都理解得很清楚的行为规则”,因此,它们之间用obviously(显然)最合逻辑。contrarily反之,相反地;frequently经常,频繁地;practically实际上,事实上(因为前文中已有in fact,所以这里不能再用)。
