According to certain beer commercials , the contemporary version of success【B1】______in moving up to a premium brand that costs a dime or so more per bottle. Credit-card companies would have you【B2】______success inheres in owning their particular piece of plastic.
【B3】______the flag of success, modern-style, liberal arts colleges are withering【B4】______business schools are burgeoning,and yet even business schools are having an increasingly hard time【B5】______faculty members, because teaching isn’t【B6】______" successful" enough. Amid a broad consensus【B7】______there is a glut of lawyers and an epidemic of strangling litigation, record numbers of young people continue to flock to law school【B8】______, for the individual practitioner, a law degree is still considered a safe ticket.
Many, by external【B9】______, will be "successes". Yet there is a deadening and dangerous flaw in their philosophy: It has little room, little sympathy and less respect for the noble failure, for the person who【B10】______past the limits, who【B11】______gloriously high and falls unashamedly 【B12】______
That sort of ambition doesn’t have much place in a world【B13】______success is proved by worldly reward【B14】______by accomplishment itself. That sort of ambition is increasingly thought of as the domain of irredeemable eccentrics,【B15】______people who haven’t quite caught on—and there is great social pressure not to be one of them.
The irony is that today’s success-chasers seem obsessed with the idea of not settling. Yet in doggedly【B16】______the rather brittle species of success now in fashion, they are【B17】______themselves to a chokingly narrow swath of turf along the entire【B18】______of human possibilities. Does it ever【B19】______to them that, frequently, success is what people settle for【B20】______they can’t think of something noble enough to be worth failing at?
【B18】
选项
A、range
B、extent
C、scope
D、domain
答案
A
解析
本题考查近义词辨析。range意为“范围”,尤指各种种类,可供选择的范围;extent意为“广度,长度”,指某事物扩展所及的距离,尤指线的距离;scope指活动、影响等的“范围”,还指掌握的深度或涉及的广度;domain指活动、思想等的“领域,范围”。本句指人类有着各种可能性,因而用range表示范围。
