问题     Beggars can be seen on the streets, subway or at【C1】________ spots in almost all the big cities. Some are for real and need the money. Others are just members of a gang or are used to【C2】________ money. Would you give beggars money, or just ignore them? Forum readers share their opinions.
    One of them【C3】________ that begging occurs in every larger city, no exceptions in the world. There are always people who are genuinely down on their luck and making【C4】________ organizations take care of them as this has been tried in countries such as Australia and the UK with far lower【C5】________ of begging and homelessness than China.
    The other one argues that there are many different kinds of beggars, and many different reasons for becoming beggars. What can be done?
    Well, first, it is【C6】________ that if a person can make more money by begging than by other work, there will always be people who will choose begging.【C7】________ , job and skill training programs, especially for those living in rural areas, are very important. If people can get better jobs, with more money, they’ll have no reason to turn to begging.
    And providing greater support for those with real needs within a city can be a big help, too. This includes providing education for street kids, skill training for adults, etc. Most such people are not begging because they want to. They are doing it because they made some bad【C8】________ , and now feel that they have no other choice.
    For those who【C9】________ lie and exploit other, I have no problem with cracking down on them, especially those who use children to beg for them. Catch them, imprison them, and get them off the streets. But this must be done with【C10】________ and some sensitivity, not every beggar is treated this way...only the ones who most deserve it.

选项
答案 K
解析 词义辨析题。根据词性，此处应当填入名词复数形式。容易混淆的是choices“选择”，rates“比率”，doubts“疑惑”，它们的常用搭配是make／have choices，high／low rates of，have doubts，且上下文的信息提示“澳大利亚和英国的乞讨者和流浪汉的比率远低于中国”，故答案是rates。
