Many Americans believe that natural behavior is beautiful.

A young lady offers her seat in a (10)_____ bus to an elderly, frail gentleman, and he gives her a (11)_____ look because she has insulted his (12)_____ Mind you, those are just people (13)_____ to be nice; the only problem is that they are (14)_____ on different systems of (15)_____.

选项
A、angry
B、thankful
C、guilty
D、dirty
答案
D
解析
本题的考点为dirty在惯用语中的用法辨析。a dirty look是习语,指"瞪 (某人)一眼",表示很不以为然。根据上下文,老先生应该是因年轻女士的让座而瞪了她一眼。angry"愤怒的",thankful"感激的",guilty"有罪的"都不符合句子的结构和意思。
