Like people in any country, Americans enjoy following the lives of【C10】______ : movie stars, sports heroes, famous artists, politicians, and the【C11】______.

However, this kind of【C20】______does not last long. [br] 【C1】
选项 A、rather than
B、more than
C、less than
D、other than
答案 B
解析 短语辨析题。[A]rather than“与其……倒不如，不是……而是”，例如：Itis a telex rather than a letter．(与其说它是一封信，不如说它是一封电传。)[B]more than“超过，多于”，例如：She wishes to be treated as nothing more than acommon girl．(她只不过希望被像一般的女孩子一般对待。)[C]less than“少于，不到”，例如：We shan’t let our house go for less than $50，000．[D]other than“不同于，除了”，例如：The tall figure that you saw was none other than our manager．(你所见到的那位身材魁梧的先生不是别人正是我们的经理。)原文的意思是生活方式涵盖了服装和发型，比后者意义要广，故选择[B]more than。
