The selection puts the mild-mannered Bernanke, a former professor, in the company of U. S. President Barack Obama, Pope John Paul II and Russian President Vladimir Putin, among other【C3】______world figures the magazine has picked in past years.
The Senate is considering Bernanke’s【C4】______to a second term to head the Fed—the U. S. central bank—and while he is expected to win【C5】______, criticism of the Fed among the public and members of Congress is at its highest in decades.
The Fed worries that congressional second-guessing of its policy【C6】______would compromise its fiercely-guarded independence.
One poll by Rasmussen Reports showed public support for Bernanke’s nomination at a scant 21 percent, with 41 percent【C7】______opposition, but he continues to enjoy support on Wall Street and among many lawmakers.

H)kept [br] 【C5】
选项
答案
B
解析
动词win后缺少一个名词。联系上下文可知,尽管伯南克获得连任没有多大悬念,但公众和美国国会议员对美联储的批评声数十年来空前高涨。由此可知,空格处缺少与后文中的criticism的意思形成对照的词语,故confirmation的含义与题意相符。
