Tomorrow Japan and South Korea will celebrate White Day, an annual event when men are expected to buy a gift for the adored women in their lives. It is a relatively new【C1】______that was commercially created as payback for Valentine’s Day. That’s【C2】______in both countries, 14 February is all about the man.
On Valentine’s Day, women are expected to buy all the important male【C3】______in their lives a token gift; not just their partners, 【C4】______their bosses or older relatives too.
This seems【C5】______enough. Surely it’s reasonable for men to be indulged on one day of the year, 【C6】______the number of times they’re expected to produce bouquets of flowers and【C7】______their woman with perfume or pearls.
But the idea of a woman【C8】______a man didn’t sit easily with people. In 1978, the National Confectionery Industry Association(糖果业协会) 【C9】______an idea to solve this problem. They started to market white chocolate that men could give to women on 14 March, as 【C10】______for the male-oriented Valentine’s Day.
It started with a handful of sweet makers’ producing candy【C11】______a simple gift idea. The day【C12】______the public imagination, and is now a nationally【C13】______date in the diary — and one where men are【C14】______to whip out their credit cards. In fact, men are now expected to give gifts worth【C15】______the value of those they received. What a complication: not only do men have to remember who bought them what, they have to estimate the value and multiply it by three.
【C10】
选项
A、companion
B、compromise
C、competence
D、compensation
答案
D
解析
空格所在句子大意为:他们开始向男性推销白色巧克力,让他们在3月14号那天送给女性,来补偿女性在情人节那天的付出。A项companion“同伴,朋友,指南,手册”;B项compromise“妥协,和解,折中”;C项competence“能力,胜任,权限”;D项compensation“补偿,报酬,赔偿金”。D项符合文意。
