According to certain beer commercials, the contemporary version of success【C1】______in moving up to a premium brand that costs a dime or so more per bottle. Credit-card companies would have you【C2】______success inheres in owning their particular piece of plastic.
【C3】______the flag of success, modern-style, liberal arts colleges are withering【C4】______business schools are burgeoning...and yet even business schools are having an increasingly hard time【C5】______faculty members, because teaching isn’t【C6】______"successful" enough. Amid a broad consensus【C7】______there is a glut of lawyers and an epidemic of strangling litigation, record numbers of young people continue to flock to law school【C8】______, for the individual practitioner, a law degree is still considered a safe ticket.
Many, by external【C9】______, will be "successes". Yet there is a deadening and dangerous flaw in their philosophy: It has little room, little sympathy and less respect for the noble failure, for the person who【C10】______past the limits, who【C11】______gloriously high and falls unashamedly【C12】______.
That sort of ambition doesn’t have much place in a world【C13】______success is proved by worldly reward【C14】______by accomplishment itself. That sort of ambition is increasingly thought of as the domain of irredeemable eccentrics,【C15】______people who haven’t quite caught on—and there is great social pressure not to be one of them.
The irony is that today’s success-chasers seem obsessed with the idea of not settling. Yet in doggedly【C16】______the rather brittle species of success now in fashion, they are【C17】______themselves to a chokingly narrow swath of turf along the entire【C18】______of human possibilities. Does it ever【C19】______to them that, frequently, success is what people settle for【C20】______they can’t think of something noble enough to be worth failing at?
【C20】
选项
A、since
B、as
C、because
D、when
答案
D
解析
本题考查逻辑关系。空格处的词引导的从句相当于条件句,表示“在……的情况下”。所给选项中,只有when符合上下文的意思。句意是:他们是否想到,只有在人们想不出有更崇高的、值得以失败为代价而求之的情况下,才会去追求成功以安身立命。
