The selection puts the mild-mannered Bernanke, a former professor, in the company of U. S. President Barack Obama, Pope John Paul II and Russian President Vladimir Putin, among other【S3】______world figures the magazine has picked in past years.
The Senate is considering Bernanke’s【S4】______to a second term to head the Fed—the U. S. central bank—and while he is expected to win【S5】______, criticism of the Fed among the public and members of Congress is at its highest in decades.

选项
答案
M
解析
介词off后缺少一个名词。根据原文可知,时值伯南克试图限制可能会削弱美联储独立性提议的当口,当选《时代》年度人物无疑将助其一臂之力。proposals“提议”与题意相符。ward off意为“避开,挡住”,伯南克要“挡住”的目标应该是还没有确定的事,故排除policies“政策”。
