问题     Henry Fielding, the famous novelist who was also
a London magistrate, once made a night raid to       【M1】______
two known hideouts in this city-within-a-city;
he found seven men, women, and children packed
away in a few tiny stinking moms. All of these
people, included little children of five and         【M2】______
six who were trained as pick-pookets, were
wanted for crime.
   Conditions like these bred more criminals.
One of the typical eases was that Jack Shepard,      【M3】______
whose execution in 1724 was watched by two
hundred thousand people. Shepard, the son of
honest working people, was an apprentice in
a respectful trade, he ran away from it because      【M4】______
he fancied that he had been ill-treated,
and soon found it was easy to make more            【M5】______
money by thieving as his father had done            【M6】______
by a lifetime of honest work.
   In Shepard’ s day highwaymen committed
robberies at broad daylight, in sight              【M7】______
of a crowd, and rode solemnly and triumphantly
through the town with danger of molestation.         【M8】______
ff they were chased, twenty or thirty
armed men were ready to come to their
assistance. Murder was a everyday affair,           【M9】______
and there were many people who made heroes
from the murderers.                               【M10】______
【M4】
选项
答案respectful改成respectable
解析 respectful与respectable为容易混淆的近形词。事实上，它们的意义相去甚远，respectful表示“有礼貌的”，respectable表示“相当好的，体面的，应受尊敬的”。根据上下文的内容应为respectable。
