In the presence of strangers or foreigners he often seams inhibited. 【22】______ embarrassed. You have only to 【23】______ a commuter train any morning or evening to see the truth of this. Serious looking businessmen and women sit reading their newspapers or dozing in a corner; no one speaks. In fact, to do so would seem most unusual. 【24】______ , there is here an unwritten but clearly understood code of behavior which. 【25】______ broken, makes the person immediately the object of 【26】______ .
It is a well-known fact that the English have a 【27】______ for the discussion of their weather and that, given half a chance, they will talk about it 【28】______ . Some people argue that it is because English weather 【29】______ forecast and hence is a source of interest and. 【30】______ to everyone.

A、unless
B、if
C、while
D、as if
答案
B
解析
考查上下文理解。这道题需要考生仔细分析句子结构。which后的部分为code的定语从句,而空格所在的分句应当是定语从句的状语。如果不要这一状语,定语从句及整个句意就会出现逻辑混乱,所以该状语应当是表示一种假设的相反情况,而broken指的是打破这一行为准则,这样句意才合逻辑,故选 if。注意if broken相当于if it(=code)is broken。
