Misery may love company, but this was ridiculous. More than
a million IBM stockholders last week took a nightmare ride on a
stock they had long trusted. IBM had been sliding all year recent【S1】______
hitting 10-year lows, but after the company announced last Tuesday
that it would, among other things, slash another 25,000 jobs, the
stock took a historic rise. In 48 hours, it lost 11 points, or almost【S2】______

other new low. Big Board officials camped out on the exchange floor【S3】______
to prevent chaotic, land brokers fielded frantic calls from investors【S4】______
in various stages of disbelief and agony. " They’re screaming and
hollering," said Carol Komskis of York Securities. They are

选项
答案
rise—dive
解析
语义错误。该处意思是“在IBM宣布裁员25 000人后,股票出现了历史性的大跌”。因为裁员预示着经营不善,因此股价会下跌,而不是上升。take a dive是固定搭配,表示“急剧下降”。
