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.

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.

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。
