问题    When Laura Langanki found extra towels in the laundry smelling lemony fresh, she never【C1】______ that meant her 13-year-old son was【C2】______ drugs. "We were【C3】______ three to four bottles of air freshener a week," says the 42-year-old nurse from Plymouth, Minn. "【C4】______ a fool, I thought my kid was becoming more nterested in personal【C5】______ "Instead, Jake was "huffing"--spraying the【C6】______ into towels and inhaling the fumes.【C7】______ his mother found out two years later, he was smoking pot, using acid and crystal met amphetamine, drinking alcohol, and snorting cocaine.
   Laura had warned Jake not to【C8】______ illegal drugs when he was younger and felt sure he got the message. But according to a new U.S. News【C9】______ , even parents who believe they talk often with their kids about drugs can be【C10】______ . Of 700 parents and 700 teens surveyed, 1【C11】______ 3 parents claimed to talk about drugs "a lot" with his or her teen, while only 14 percent of teenagers felt they had frequent conversation on the【C12】______ with Mom or Dad.
   That failure to communicate can have【C13】______ con sequences. In a 1999 survey of nearly 10, 000 parents and teens【C14】______ the Partnership for a Drug-Free America, teens who【C15】______  anti-drug messages at home were 42 percent 【C16】______ to use drugs. "This may sound like【C17】______ advice," says Steve Dnistrian, executive vice president of the group. "But hard numbers quantify that parental communication is the  【C18】______ most important thing we can do to prevent children using drugs." Indeed, parents received 【C19】______ vote of confidence from 63 percent of the teens polled by U.S. News,【C20】______  siblings, teachers, and friends.
【C18】

选项 A、single
B、far
C、by far
D、much

答案A

解析该题考查的是形容词最高级的修饰语。我们知道，far和much常用来修饰形容词比较级，例如： much/far more important。C项by far是可以用来修饰最高级的，但其位置要放在the的前面，例如： This is by far the most common snake．由此可见，这里应该选用A项single。single常常用来修饰形容词最高级。例如：Cigarette smoking is the single most important cause of lung cancer．
