An advertisement【63】a Charlie Chaplin film was a【64】of happiness, of that precious, almost shocking moment when art delivers【65】life cannot.

选项 A、tradition
B、idea
C、habit
D、rule
答案C
解析 tradition 表示“传统”；idea 表示“思想；想法”；habit 表示“习惯”；rule 表示“规定；规则”。放电影，不可能是一种传统，因为，电影在当时是新生事物，并不是以前流传下来的；也不仅仅是一种想法，因为，看电影当时已经成为一个事实；也不会是一种必须严格执行的明文规定；只能是一个国家的习惯做法。
