In the house where I grew up, it was our custom to leave the
"on the latch" at night. No one carried keys.
Today doors do not stay unlocked, thus for part of an evening.【S1】______
The era of leaving the front door open has gone forever. It has been
replaced of by locks, security chains, electronic alarm systems and【S2】______
trip wires hooked up to a police station or private guard firm. Many
suburban families even have sliding glass doors on their patios, with
steel bars elegantly building in so no one can pry the doors open.【S3】______
A recent public-service advertisement by an insurance company
featured not actuarial charts or a picture of a child’s bicycle with【S4】______
padlock attached to it.
It is the insurance companies which pay for stolen goods, but【S5】______
who is going to pay for that the new atmosphere of distrust and fear is【S6】______
doing to our way of life? Who is going to make the psychological【S7】______
payment for the transformation of America from the Land of Free
to the Land of the Lock?
For some reason we are satisfied when we think we are well-
protected ; it does not occur us to ask ourselves: Why are we having【S8】______
to barricade ourselves for our neighbors and fellow citizens, and【S9】______
when, exactly, did this start to take over our lives?
Even a decade ago, most private businesses had a policy of
free access. Thus, today you have to carry some kind of access card【S10】______
to your company. Maybe the security guard at the front desk knows
your face and will wave you in most days, but the fact remains that
the business your work for feels threatened enough to keep outsiders
away via these "keys". [br] 【S1】
选项
答案
thus—even
解析
衔接副词误用。本句要表达的意思是“今天所有的门都是上锁的,甚至是傍晚的一段时间也要锁上。”可见二者是让步关系,不是因果关系。
