Alan and Linda always dreamed of living " the good life ".【C3】______from poor working-class families, they married young and set out to fulfill their【C4】______goal of becoming wealthy. They both worked very hard for years,【C5】______a small fortune, so they could move from their two-bedroom home toa(n)【C6】______seven-bedroom home in the most upscale neighborhood. They focused their energies【C7】______ accumulating all the things they believed【C8】______ abundance: membership in the local【C9】______ country club, luxury cars, designer clothing, and high-class society【C10】______. No matter how much they accumulated,【C11】______, it never seemed to be enough. They were unable to erase the deep fear of scarcity both【C12】______in childhood.

选项
A、relatives
B、friends
C、colleagues
D、employers
答案
B
解析
语篇衔接题。此处所填名词的修饰语是high-class society,因为这里列举的是他们富有之后才拥有的象征富裕的东西,[B]friends“朋友”,符合句意,故为正确答案。[A]relatives“亲戚,亲属”、[C]colleagues“同事”、[D]employers“雇主”都不符合文意,故排除。
