问题     A book like this is never the work of a single author or even a small group of authors; rather there are many people and institutions whose【S1】______need to be acknowledged. In the first place, we wish to thank the many scholars and sales managers who have【S2】______so diligently over the last 20 years to move the study of sales management out of the dark ages and into the【S3】______of marketing thought. We would also like to【S4】______the special contributions of the Marketing Science Institute, which supported much of the recent research, and especially Steve Greyser, and Diane Schmalensee for their willingness to【S5】______MSI’s energies and resources to the study of sales management before it became a fashionable topic.
    Scholars -- even those in marketing -- are sometimes not very customer-oriented,【S6】______when it comes to writing textbooks. We have made much effort to avoid such a heresy.【S7】______, we offer special thanks to the more than 60 professors who【S8】______to our questionnaire about their attitudes toward the precious edition of this book. The information they【S9】______was very helpful in our effort to make the third edition a more useful book for teaching and learning.
    We also thank our many students over the years for their comments and suggestions. The book is better because of their insights.
    We hope we haven’t forgotten anyone, and we apologize to those whose suggestions we failed to include. Needless to say, we assume full【S10】______for any errors or omissions in this book.

【S1】
选项
答案N
解析 分析句子结构可知所填的词应为名词。在备选项所提供的四个名词中，patience“耐心”、responsibility“责任心”和mainstream“主流”的意思均不符，因为本句中rather一词之后的内容是对a book like this is never the work of a single author or even a small group of authors的进一步说明，因此所选词应与work相对应。由以上两个方面可得出答案efforts“努力”。
