Of wealth, power and prestige, power is the hardest to measure. Most studies are nothing more than an average of 【C2】______ about where power is found. Many forms of power are so 【C3】______ hidden that only its holders know the source. Because it’s so hard to 【C4】______ , and tied to ideology, the subject of power is a source of much 【C5】______ in sociology. Some maintain that power in America is concentrated in the 【C6】______ of a few people who have a common 【C7】______ and who tend to act together. Wright Mills 【C8】______ that America is 【C9】______ by a "power elite". Others believe that power in America is 【C10】______ among many groups and people.
Sociologists do agree that real power may not always lie 【C11】______ we think it does. Mayors of some cities, 【C12】______ , are sometimes mere figureheads looking impressive. The actual decisions are made by a handful of business leaders staying behind the 【C13】______ . Some are made at the lowest level, where the work is really 【C14】______ Such is the 【C15】______ with the police officers or teachers.

选项
A、mastery
B、hands
C、manipulation
D、domination
答案
B
解析
名词语义题。句意为:一些社会学家主张,美国权力集中掌握在有共同背景的少数人手中,他们更可能会同心协力。in the hands of固定搭配“掌控在…的手中”;A mastery意思是“掌握,精通;统治,控制”;选项C manipulation表示“控制,操纵”;选项D domination表示“主宰,支配”。选项A 、C 和D 搭配不当,主语是the power,它掌控在谁的手中,只能用in the hands of。
