Short stories are due a revival. In recent years, there have been critically【C1】________collections by American writers such as Lydia Davis and Junot Diaz. But few others manage to【C2】________the bestseller lists, and they are all too often【C3】________by novels.【C4】________their heyday in the early 20th century, short stories are mostly viewed as trials or experiments before an author【C5】________with the real thing.
John Burnside, a Scottish poet and novelist,【C6】________, this fixed idea in his latest collection, "Something Like Happy". Over 13 stories, Mr Burnside shows the versatility of the condensed【C7】________His stories take place mostly in Scotland, in flats "high up on the third floor of an apartment block in the middle of Dundee" or in the back room of a hardware shop,【C8】________men drink "sweet, milky coffee"【C9】________waiting for the results of the races.

Happiness is the subject that【C13】________the collection together. In other hands, this could become sentimental.【C14】________Mr Burnside, with only a few【C15】________, never allows that to happen.

选项
A、which
B、when
C、where
D、what
答案
C
解析
空格处应填入引导词,连接前后分句,而空格前的a hardware shop表示地点,因此应填入表 “地点”的关系副词,故答案选C项where,此处表示男人在此处喝“加奶的甜咖啡”。which需在从句中作主语或宾语,而该句从句成分完整,故排除A项;when的先行词应为表“时间”的名词,故排除B项;what不引导定语从句,故排除D项。
