Many foreigners who have not visited Britain call all the inhabitants English, for they are used to thinking of the British Isles as England.【C1】______, the British Isles contain a variety of peoples, and only the people of England call themselves English. The others【C2】______to themselves as Welsh, Scottish, or Irish,【C3】______the case may be; they are often slightly annoyed【C4】______being classified as "English".
Even in England there are many【C5】______in regional character and speech. The chief【C6】______is between southern England and northern England. South of a【C7】______going from Bristol to London, people speak the type of English usually learnt by foreign students,【C8】______there are local variations.
Further north regional speech is usually " broader" than【C9】______of southern Britain. Northerners are【C10】______to claim that they work harder than Southerners, and are more【C11】______. They are open-hearted and hospitable; foreigners often find that they make friends with them【C12】______Northerners generally have hearty【C13】______: the visitor to Lancashire or Yorkshire, for instance, may look forward to receiving【C14】______helpings at meal times.
In accent and character the people of the Midlands【C15】______a gradual change from the southern to the northern type of Englishman.
In Scotland the sound【C16】______by the letter "R" is generally a strong sound, and "R" is often pronounced in words in which it would be【C17】______in southern English. The Scots are said to be a serious, cautious, thrifty people,【C18】______inventive and somewhat mystical.

【C13】
选项
A、appetites
B、tastes
C、interests
D、senses
答案
A
解析
冒号后面是对空白处所填词的解释说明,根据look forward to和at meal times可推测,此处跟“吃”有关。纵观四个选项,A项appetite意为“胃口,食欲”,符合题意;B项taste意为“滋味,趣味,鉴赏力”;C项interest意为“兴趣”;D项sense意为“感觉,意识”,三词均不合题意。
