There were red faces at one of Britain’ s biggest banks recently. They had accepted a telephone order to buy $ 100,000 worth of shares from a fifteen-year-old schoolboy(they thought he was twenty-one). The shares fell in value and the schoolboy was unable to【C1】______The band lost $ 20,000 on the【C2】______that it cannot get back because, for one thing, this young speculator does not have the money and, for another,【C3】______under eighteen, he is not legally liable for his debts. If the shares had risen in value by the same amount that they fell, he would have pocketed $ 20,000

Because he is also under eighteen the banks have【C10】______a lot of money, and several cashiers have lost their jobs.

选项
A、kissed goodbye
B、got rid of
C、lived up to
D、made up for
答案
A
解析
kiss goodbye吻别。get rid of摆脱,除去。live up to实践,做到。make up for补偿。根据上下文可知这里是要表示“银行只好白白丢掉很多钱”的意思。kiss goodbye可以生动地表达出这层含义,其他三个词不符合文章意义和感情色彩。
