More and more residences, businesses, and even government agencies are using telephone answering machines to take messages or give information or instructions.

The most common machine is the (4)_____ used in residence. If you call a home (5)_____ there is a telephone answering machine (6)_____ you will hear several rings and then a recorded message that (7)_____ says something like this: "Hello. We can’t come to the (8)_____ right now. If you want us to call you back, please leave your name and number after the beep." Then you will hear a "beep", (9)_____ is a brief, high-pitched (10)_____. After the beep, you can say who you are, whom you want to speak to, and what number the person should call to (11)_____ you, or you can leave a (12)_____. Some telephone answering machines record for only 20 or 30 seconds after the beep, (13)_____ you must respond quickly.
Some large businesses and government agencies are using telephone answering machines to provide information on (14)_____ about which they receive a large volume of (15)_____. Generally speaking, using these systems (16)_____ you to have a touch-tone phone (a phone with buttons rather than a rotary dial). The voice on the machine will tell you to (17)_____ a certain button on your telephone if you want information on Topic A, another button for Topic B, and so on. You listen (18)_____ you hear the topic you want to learn about, and then you push the (19)_____ button. Immediately after making your (20)_____, you will hear a recorded message on the topic.
选项
A、impossibly
B、hardly
C、always
D、usually
答案
D
解析
语义衔接题。该句中that引导的是定语从句,修饰先行词a recorded message。接下来,又提到了录音电话留言信息的内容:Hello(你好)。根据常识可知,通常录音电话都这样说,希望来电者留言,四个选项中只有usually(通常)符合上下文语义。impossibly意为"不可能地,办不到地",显然不符合此处的语境。hardly意为"几乎不",表示否定含义,与impossibly类似,句中不可能出现表示否定意义的副词。always意为"始终,永远",与usually相比过于绝对,不符合常识。
