After yuppies and dinkies, a new creature from a land stalks the block. The NYLON, an acronym linking New York and London, is a refinement of those more familiar categories such as jet-setters and cosmocrats(cosmopolitan aristocrats. . . do keep up). Marketing professionals have noted that【51】the demise of Concorde, a new class of high-earner increasingly 【52】his or her time shuttling【53】the twin capitals of globalization.

选项
A、uses
B、spends
C、expends
D、costs
答案
B
解析
本题考核的知识点是动词。A表示“使用,利用”;B表示“花费(时间)";C表示“花费(金钱)”;D的主语一般是物,表示“某件事情花费(时间)”。spend one’s time doing sth.是固定用法,故选B“收人人群把时间更多地花费在两个国际大都市之间的穿梭上”。
