问题     There once was a master who came to India, perhaps from Persia. When he got there, he saw a lot of【C1】______. In India they have plenty of fruit to sell, but much of it is expensive. So he saw a big basket of some very red, long fruit, the cheapest in the shop. He bought a whole kilogram of the fruit and started【C2】______it. But after he ate some of it, his eyes and mouth【C3】______and burned, and his face became red. He coughed and choked, jumping up and down.
    But he still continued to eat the fruit! Some people who were【C4】______him said, " Those are hot peppers! People use them as a flavor, but only a little bit to put into food for【C5】______. You can’t just eat them【C6】______that: they’re not fruit!" But the stupid master said, "No, I can’t stop! I【C7】______money for them, and now I’ll eat them. It’s my money!"
    And you think that master was stupid, right?【C8】______, we sometimes do a lot of things like that. We invest money, time or effort in a relationship, business or job. Even though bitter experience tells us it won’t work, we still continue just【C9】______we’ve invested money, time, effort and love into it. Just like the man who ate the peppers and【C10】______so much but couldn’t stop because he didn’t want to waste the money he’d paid.
【C7】
选项 A、spent
B、made
C、earned
D、paid
答案D
解析 本题考查固定词组。pay sth．for sth．的意思是“为……支付”。spend的固定用法是“spend sth．on sth．，或者spend sth．(in)doing，与原文不吻合。故本题答案为D。
