【C3】______their economic system may be dominated by large corporations, the majority of American businesses are small, and many are owned by an individual or a family. It is part of the "American dream" to "be your own boss", and being an entrepreneur is one of the most【C4】______ways to improve one’s economic future.
Education is often regarded as the key to opportunity,【C5】______financial security. Americans take a pragmatic【C6】______to learning, so what one learns outside the classroom【C7】______internship, extracurricular activities and the like are often considered as important as what is learned in the classroom.【C8】______, lifelong learning is valued, which results in many adult continuing education programs.
【C9】______aspect of American society that may【C10】______non-Americans is the family. The nuclear family structure (parents and children) is【C11】______that in most cultures in the world, so it is often misunderstood. An important【C12】______of the American family is to bring about the happiness and independence of each individual family member.

The rugged individualism valued by most Americans stems from their frontier heritage. Early settlers had to be self-sufficient, which【C17】______them to be inventive. Their success gave them a(n)【C18】______about the future and a belief that problems could be solved. This positive spirit【C19】______Americans to take risks in areas where others might only dream, resulting in tremendous advance【C20】______technology, health and science. [br] 【C18】
选项
A、pessimism
B、passion
C、optimism
D、suspicion
答案
C
解析
语义衔接题。后面提到This positive spirit(这种积极的精神),指代前面提到的a(n)_79_about thefuture and a belief..solved。由此可知,这里应该是一种积极的态度,故[B]passion“热情”和[C]optimism“乐观”入选。而passion常用for搭配使用,故排除,故答案为[C]optimism。[A]pessimism“悲观主义”;[D]suspicion“怀疑”。
