The Miss America celebration【C1】______as a beauty contest in 1921, but now prefers to avoid such【C2】______since beauty is no longer the primary【C3】______used to judge contestants. Each year in September, the celebration was held in Atlantic City, New Jersey,【C4】______for the year 2000, when it was held on October 14. In January 2006 the celebration moved to its new home and time in Las Vegas, Nevada. The celebration【C5】______itself as a "scholarship celebration ", and the【C6】______prizes for the winner and her runners-up are scholarships to the institution of her choice.

Many people,【C17】______feminists, still object【C18】______the Miss America celebration as "forcing monolithic, racist, often【C19】______standard of beauty into the nation’s【C20】______."
【C10】
选项
A、verge
B、border
C、edge
D、rim
答案
A
解析
名词辨义题和固定搭配题。句意为“既然大多数的参赛者都已经是大学毕业生,或者即将毕业,……”。 on the verge of意为“接近于,马上就要”,符合句意。on the border of“在……边界上”,显然不符合句意;on the edge of和on the rim of意思都是“濒于,在边缘”,但是都是表示具体的含义,不能用于表示抽象含义。
