Britain is not just one country and one people: even if some of its inhabitants think so. Britain is, in fact, a nation which can be divided into several【C1】______parts, each part being an individual country with its own language, character and cultural【C2】______. Thus Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales do not claim to【C3】______to "England" because their inhabitants are not【C4】______"English". They are Scottish, Irish or Welsh and many of them prefer to speak their own native tongue, which in turn is【C5】______to the others.
These cultural minorities(少数民族)have been Britain’s original inhabitants. In varying degrees they have managed to【C6】______their national characteristics, and their particular customs and way of life. This is probably even more true of the【C7】______areas where traditional life has not been so affected by the【C8】______of industrialism as the border areas have been. The Celtic races are said to be more emotional by nature than the English. An Irish temper is legendary. The Scots would rather【C9】______about their reputation for excessive thrift and prefer to be remembered for their folk songs and dances, while the Welsh are famous for their singing. The Celtic【C10】______as a whole produces humorous writers and artists, such as the Irish Bernard Shaw, the Scottish Robert Burns, and the Welsh Dylan Thomas, to mention but a few.
A)incomprehensible B)temper C)remote D)separate E)understandable
F)forget G)generally H)temperament I)preserve J)strictly
K)traditions L)reserve M)growth N)apply O)belong [br] 【C3】
选项
答案
O
解析
此处应填动词原形。前文中说明英国被分成独立的几部分,各自保留自己的文化传统;后文中“because…”说明苏格兰、北爱尔兰以及威尔士的居民不承认自己是“English”,说明他们并不承认自己属于“England”,故这里应该选择belong。apply也可以和to连用,但apply to表示“将……应用于”,不符合上下文意思。
