Urban life has always involved a balancing of opportunities and rewards against dangers and stress; its【C1】______force is, in the broadest sense, money. Opportunities to make money mean competition and competition is stressful; it is often at its most【C2】______in the largest cities, where opportunities are greatest. The presence of huge numbers of people【C3】______involves more conflicts, more traveling, the overloading of public services and exposure to those deviants(不正常的人)and criminals who are drawn to the rich pickings of great cities. Crime has always【C4】______in the relative anonymity(匿名)of urban life, but today’s ease of movement makes its【C5】______more difficult than ever; there is much evidence that its extent has a direct relationship to the size of communities. City dwellers may become【C6】______in their homes by the fear of crime around them.
As a defense against these developments, city dwellers tend to use various【C7】______to try and reduce the pressures upon themselves: doors are kept locked; telephone numbers may be ex-directory; journeys outside the home are usually hurried, rather than a source of pleasure. There are other strategies, too, which are【C8】______harmful to the individual, for example, reducing awareness through drugs or alcohol. Furthermore, all these defensive forms of behavior are harmful to society in general; they cause【C9】______loneliness and destroy the community’s concern for its members. Lack of informal social contact and【C10】______to the misfortunes of others, are amongst the major causes of urban crime.
A)widespread I)inevitably
B)intense J)solutions
C)strategies K)motivating
D)flourished L)combined
E)positively M)vigorously
F)challenging N)indifference
G)trapped O)control
H)extensive
【C2】
选项
答案
B
解析
空前的most表明,本空应填形容词,A)widespread,B)intense,F)challenging和H)exten—sive入选。由Opportunities to make money mean competition and competition is stressful可知,有机会就意味着有压力。本句的后半句用定语从句where opportunities are greatest说明城市机会最多,由此可知,城市的压力最大,B)intense“剧烈的,极度的”符合此处语义。
