问题 In modern times, friendship has become a________relationship: a form of connection in terms of which all are understood and against which all are measured.

选项 A、conciliatory
B、mercenary
C、paradigmatic
D、contentious
E、supplementary

答案C

解析 两句话的逻辑连接标志为冒号,表示解释说明。冒号后面这部分有两个which引导的定语从句,修饰a form,比较难懂,可以调整一下语序来理解,相当于:all are understood and against which all are measured against which,这里的in terms of表示“就……而言”,而against在这个语境中是对于in terms of的同义改写,并不表示“反对”,而是“就……而言”。因此这句话的意思是:在现代,友谊成为了一种________的关系:所有的东西都基于这种形式的联系来理解,所有的东西都基于这种形式来衡量。空格中要填入一个形容词,表示友谊这种关系具有的特征,冒号后面的名词短语作这种关系的同位语,解释说明这种关系。既然所有的东西都基于这种关系来理解,所有的东西都基于这种关系来衡量,说明它是一种衡量的标准,所以空格应填入表示“衡量标准”的词,选C项paradigmatic。
