问题     It’s normal to think of a conversation as taking place between people who are in the same room, surrounded by the same set of physical objects and influences, and aware of each other’s facial and bodily gestures. When this is not so, the difference is【C1】________by using another term for what is going on "telephone conversation" for instance. As a consequence of their situation, conversationalists (交谈者) are able to place a great deal of【C2】________on the immediately surrounding bit of the world—what may be called the "extra-linguistic context" in their【C3】________to communicate with each other: a raised eyebrow, a【C4】________movement, a glance towards some person or thing, may "say" a great deal without the need for any words at all. Thus, to anyone listening at a keyhole, and so【C5】________of the contextual cues, the language being used may well sound【C6】________incomplete, and probably difficult to hear at times, because of the great changes of speed and loudness that can so easily be used by people sitting or standing【C6】________close to each other.
    Conversationalists will also, as a rule, be relaxed and not unduly worried about the【C7】________they are creating unlike the lecturer, or the person【C7】________an interview. Slips and errors of grammar will be frequent, and will bother no-one: they certainly form an expected part of conversation, and perhaps even a welcome one, because to talk too smoothly and correctly is to run the risk of sounding like a book and no one likes to talk to a book. Similarly, slight carelessness of pronunciation will be common, and few people will bother to go in for the "tidying up" of speech, or the adoption of an unusually "posh" accent that is sometimes【C8】________in circumstances where it is thought necessary to "create impression".
    A) straightforward   F) recognized      K) attempt
    B) noticeable        G) accused         L) undergoing
    C) deprived          H) impression      M) reliance
    D) reference         I) illustrating    N) consequently
    E) relatively        J) slight          O) inexplicit [br] 【C4】
选项
答案 J
解析 分析句子结构可知，本空需要填一个形容词或过去分词来修饰后面的名词movement，因为它与前面的形容词raised(修饰eyebrow)构成了并列关系；从前面的不定冠词a，可判断该词的发音不是以元音开头。符合上述语法条件的形容词有straightforward(坦率的)，noticeable(明显的，显著的)和slight(轻微的；渺小的)，过去分词有deprived(被剥夺)，结合上下文语境“挑起眉毛，……瞥一下”，可知slight更贴切，故正确答案是J。
