Britain is not just one country and one people; even if some of its inhabitants think so. Britain is, in fact, a nation which can be divided into several【C1】______parts, each part being an individual country with its own language, character and cultural【C2】______. Thus Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales do not claim to【C3】______to "England" because their inhabitants are not【C4】______"English". They are Scottish, Irish or Welsh and many of them prefer to speak their own native tongue, which in turn is【C5】______to the others.
These cultural minorities(少数民族)have been Britain’s original inhabitants. In varying degrees they have managed to【C6】______their national characteristics, and their particular customs and way of life. This is probably even more ture of the【C7】______areas where traditional life has not been so affected by the【C8】______of industrialism as the border areas have been. The Celtic races are said to be more emotional by nature than the English. An Irish temper is legendary. The Scots would rather 【C9】______about their reputation for excessive thrift and prefer to be remembered for their folk songs and dances, while the Welsh are famous for their singing. The Celtic【C10】______as a whole produces humorous writers and artists, such as the Irish Bernard Shaw, the Scottish Robert Burns, and the Welsh Dylan Thomas, to mention but a few.
A)incomprehensible B)temper C)remote D)separate E)understandable
F)forget G)generally H)temperament I)preserve J)strictly
K)traditions L)reserve M)growth N)apply O)belong [br] 【C5】
选项
答案
A
解析
此处应填形容词。从前文中“prefer to speak their own native tongue”,即苏格兰语、爱尔兰语和威尔士语,而这些语言对the others来说是陌生的,听不懂的。那么就不难从选项中的incomprehensible和understandable中选择前者,故incomprehensible“不能理解的”正确。
