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.
【C8】
选项
A、at length
B、at once
C、at large
D、at last
答案
A
解析
本填空考查副词词组,而且此词组出现在第二段的首旬,通过分析又发现第二段的首句其实是本段的总述句,所以本题目应用总分结构对照法来定位答案。这个副词是用来修饰英国人如何谈论天气的,四个选项分别为:A)at length(详细地)、B)at once(立即,马上)、C)at large(自由地,逍遥自在地)和D)at last(最后,最终)。我们通过分析本段落的分述部分的信息,特别是之后一句中的信息:“Some people argue that it is because the British weather seldom ________ forecast and hence becomes a source of interest and ________ to everyone.”,可知英国人谈论天气一定谈得很详细.答案应该是A)at length,其他选项表达的意思从分述中推断不出来。
