问题     After yuppies and dinkies, a new creature from adland stalks the block. The NYLON, an acronym linking New York and London, is a refinement of those more familiar categories such as jet- setters and cosmocrats (cosmopolitan aristocrats...do keep up). Marketing professionals have noted that【1】the demise of Concorde, a new class of high-earner increasingly【2】his or her time shuttling【3】the twin capitals of globalization. And NYLONS prefer their home comforts【4】tap in both cities. Despite the impressive【5】of air miles, they are not adventurous people.
    As【6】from Tom Wolfe’s Masters of the Universe of the 1980s, NYLONS have done more than well【7】the long boom and new economy of the last ten years. They are DJs, chefs, games designers, Internet entrepreneurs, fashionistas, publishers and even a(n)【8】band of journalists and writers. They are self-consciously trendy and some are even able to【9】houses in both cities. Others will put up【10】a house in one, and a view【11】a room in the【12】. of course, their horizons do【13】beyond just New York and London. For many, Los Angeles is an important shopping mall.
    More significantly for adland, NYLONS provide some useful marketing savings. Campaigns no longer have to differ very much in the two cities,【14】NYLONS bring them ever closer together. The restaurants are the same, with Nobu now in London and Conran in New York. Many plays【15】in both cities at the same time, and DJs shuttle between the two,【16】the same garage to the same people in【17】clubs. Time Out and Wallpaper are the magazines of【18】. All this is fine for NYLONS. But not so much【19】for everybody else watching Notting Hill turn【20】a pale imitation of Greenwich Village.  

选项 A、fun
B、funny
C、amusing
D、interesting

答案A

解析 本题考核的知识点是语法+名词。因为修饰词是not much,后面应该接一个名词。A选项fun为名词。B选项funny为形容词。C选项amusing为形容词。D选项interesting为形容词。只有A符合要求。但对于其他那些看着Notting Hill变成了Greenwich Village的一个平淡的仿制品的人来说,这些可没那么有趣了。
