问题     Society can be broken up into three classes: the Elite, the Meek and the Masses. The Elite are 【C1】______of the top 10% of society, those that don’t need anyone’s help【C2】______it comes to getting what they want. They have the status, the money, the power, and the respect to【C3】______whatever they need. In spite of the fact that they enjoy the upper hand, people outside of this class will still go to great【C4】______to help them even further.
    The Meek are comprised of the bottom 10% of society, those who need our help, and badly at that. But【C5】______so many of us are eager to get in well with the Elite, few actually care enough to provide any【C6】______to the Meek. The Masses are the largest class, 【C7】______up the middle 80% between the Meek and the Elite. Most of the Masses could use some help getting by, and【C8】______it would usually improve their lives considerably, but they【C9】______get it. Why do most people would rather help the Meek or the Elite? Because they are【C10】______with instant gratification or the anticipation of future benefits. We rarely help the Masses because there is nothing really in it for us, and this shows humanity’s true colors.
【C4】
选项 A、length
B、distance
C、degree
D、lengths
答案D
解析 go to great lengths是固定短语，意思是“(为达到目的)不遗余力”。其他选项都不能用于这个短语。原文整句话的意思是：“尽管精英阶层已经享有有利地位，然而，处于这个阶层以外的人仍然会不遗余力地为他们提供更进一步的帮助。”enjoy／gain／get the upper hand意思是“处于有利地位，占上风”。
