问题     Have you ever used email to apologize to a colleague? Delivered a【C1】______to a subordinate (下属) with a voice-mail message? Flown by plane across the country just to deliver important news in person? The various communication options at our fingertips today can be good for【C2】______and productivity—and at the same time very troublesome. With so many ways to communicate, how should a manager choose the one that’ s best—【C3】______when the message to be delivered is bad or unwelcome news for the recipient?

选项
答案 M
解析 空格前为最高级the most，空格后是be动词，因此空格处应填入形容词，与the most一起作主语。根据上文“面对面交流是最亲密的方式”，以及后文“按关系亲疏程度降序排列”，可以推断，此处形容词的意思应与intimate的意思相反，备选项中只有unfriendly(不友好的，不友善的)符合句意，故答案为M。
