问题    One of the strangest things about dispute over advertising is that the greater
the fuss the much of a mystery the industry itself seems to become. Advertising
is a passionate area. It seems to affect those who attack it and those who defend it
in remarkable similar ways.                                                       【M1】______.
   Before long both are exhibiting the same compulsive urge to overstate their case
to that it is difficult to believe that the critics and the defenders of advertising are
even arguing for the same thing. But just as it seemed sensible for us to regard advertising【M2】______.
without go to either extreme, so it also seemed logical to try and find as        【M3】______.
cold-bloodedly as if we could, what advertising in the Britain of the sixties really was.【M4】______.
   We knew that they consumed around $ 950 million a year, or roughly 2 percent   【M5】______.
of the national income. We knew that it employed something over 200,000
individuals, the majority of which were paid salaries considerably above the national【M6】______.
average. And we knew that it was supposedly run in accordance certain rather      【M7】______.
vague and often complex rules and professional orders.
   Therefore once we tried finding out exactly what all this money went on,       【M8】______.
what these highly paid individuals did for it (and with it), and how the rules
and orders influenced them, a curious thing happened. This strange animal
called advertising, so disliked by its supporters and so beloved by its defenders,【M9】______.
began to disappear. In its place were advertising men and advertising agencies--all
working in different ways and to different rules and all showed                   【M10】______.
quite startling differences of competence, taste and effectiveness.
【M4】
选项
答案as if改成去掉if
解析 搭配错误。这里使用了as+adj.+as这一结构，we could后省略了前面提到的动词try和find，表示“尽可能冷静地处理”之意。as if意为“好像，似乎”，用在此处不合适。
