Sociologists use "power" to refer to the capacity of people to control or influence the actions of others. Sociologists study power to 【C1】______ not only who exercise it, but also why it’s exercised and who benefits from its use.
Of wealth, power and prestige, power is the hardest to measure. Most studies are nothing more than an average of 【C2】______ about where power is found. Many forms of power are so 【C3】______ hidden that only its holders know the source. Because it’s so hard to 【C4】______ , and tied to ideology, the subject of power is a source of much 【C5】______ in sociology. Some maintain that power in America is concentrated in the 【C6】______ of a few people who have a common 【C7】______ and who tend to act together. Wright Mills 【C8】______ that America is 【C9】______ by a "power elite". Others believe that power in America is 【C10】______ among many groups and people.
Sociologists do agree that real power may not always lie 【C11】______ we think it does. Mayors of some cities, 【C12】______ , are sometimes mere figureheads looking impressive. The actual decisions are made by a handful of business leaders staying behind the 【C13】______ . Some are made at the lowest level, where the work is really 【C14】______ Such is the 【C15】______ with the police officers or teachers.

【C13】
选项
A、stage
B、scene
C、appearance
D、reality
答案
B
解析
固定搭配题。句意为:真正的决定是幕后的一小部分商业巨头做出的。behind the scene为固定搭配,表示“在幕后”。选项A stage表示“舞台,活动场所”,不合适;选项C appearance意思是“表象,外观”,不能与behind搭配;选项D reality一般的搭配为in reality,表示“事实上;实际上”,与behind搭配不合适。
