Choose the best word to fill each gap from A, B, C or D.
For each question (19-33), mark one letter (A, B, C, D) on your answer sheet.
There is an example at the beginning, (0).
     (0) B is a great (19) ............ of Friends where Chandler and Ross go to a (20) ............, basically get overcharged and (21) ............ to "get their money’s (22) ............ , by taking all the (23) ............ from the hotel that aren’t nailed down. With only a few exceptions (the remote is off (24) ............ , but the batteries in the remote are (25) ............ game), they (26) ............ the hotel out of shampoo, (27) ............fruit, ashtrays, etc.
    At the end of (28) ............ , they get their comeuppance when Ross’s suitcase flies open and out (29) ............ hundreds of little toiletry bottles, a bushel of apples, dozens of towels and the like. Everyone around them, including the desk (30) ............ , stares in (31) ............ as they run out the door.

    It has been estimated that the (33) ............ industry loses about $ 100 million a year from theft, according to Los Angeles Times. Tia Gordon of the American Hotel and Lodging Association tells the Times the top ripped-off item is towels. Not for me; I can’t even stand to use the towels my kids use, let alone steal one from a stranger.

选项 A、fair
B、equal
C、risk
D、balance

答案A
