Urban life has always involved a balancing of opportunities and rewards against dangers and stress; its【C1】______force is, in the broadest sense, money. Opportunities to make money mean competition and competition is stressful; it is often at its most【C2】______in the largest cities, where opportunities are greatest. The presence of huge numbers of people【C3】______involves more conflicts, more traveling, the overloading of public services and exposure to those deviants(不正常的人)and criminals who are drawn to the rich pickings of great cities. Crime has always【C4】______in the relative anonymity(匿名)of urban life, but today’s ease of movement makes its【C5】______more difficult than ever; there is much evidence that its extent has a direct relationship to the size of communities. City dwellers may become【C6】______in their homes by the fear of crime around them.
As a defense against these developments, city dwellers tend to use various【C7】______to try and reduce the pressures upon themselves: doors are kept locked; telephone numbers may be ex-directory; journeys outside the home are usually hurried, rather than a source of pleasure. There are other strategies, too, which are【C8】______harmful to the individual, for example, reducing awareness through drugs or alcohol. Furthermore, all these defensive forms of behavior are harmful to society in general; they cause【C9】______loneliness and destroy the community’s concern for its members. Lack of informal social contact and【C10】______to the misfortunes of others, are amongst the major causes of urban crime.
A)widespread I)inevitably
B)intense J)solutions
C)strategies K)motivating
D)flourished L)combined
E)positively M)vigorously
F)challenging N)indifference
G)trapped O)control
H)extensive [br] 【C2】
选项
答案
B
解析
空前的most表明,本空应填形容词,A)widespread,B)intense,F)challenging和H)exten—sive入选。由Opportunities to make money mean competition and competition is stressful可知,有机会就意味着有压力。本句的后半句用定语从句where opportunities are greatest说明城市机会最多,由此可知,城市的压力最大,B)intense“剧烈的,极度的”符合此处语义。
