问题     The way that people spend their money, and the objects on which they spend it, are the last areas where free choice and individuality can be. expressed. The choice reflects personal【B1】, the way people see themselves and the fantasies they【B2】about their lives, the restrictions on money available【B3】them, the presence of others in the family with a【B4】on that money, and the influence of current convention,【B5】, surroundings and locality.
    Shopping is an important human【B6】where people meet and communicate. Yet shoppers are【B7】with a confusing situation and a(n)【B8】changing one.

选项 A、taste
B、flavo
C、fragrance
D、smell

答案A

解析 第一句话说:人们花钱的方式,以及花钱购买的物品是人们表达选择自由和个性的最后阵地。本题中问的是这种选择表达的是什么?由第一句中的“选择自由和个性”可以推断出这里应该是personal taste,即个人的偏好或品味。flavor“味道,风味”;fragrance“香味”;smell“气味”。taste还有“味道,味觉”的含义,此处是根据“味道,味觉”这个含义设计的三个干扰项,这里的personal taste与味道和味觉无关。
