问题     Britain may not always check【C1】______properly, but it is sadly good at erecting other barriers in front of people who want to visit the country. At a recent British-Turkish conference, the【C2】______of Britain’ s visa policy【C3】______many complaints. The British embassy’ s website suggests applying for a visa any time up to three months【C4】______, but Turks at the meeting complained that they had no hope of getting one unless they applied at least 30 days before travelling.
    Many embassies and consulates ask visitors to apply for visas online—difficult for those without easy internet【C5】______. Then they must make an【C6】______at a visa application centre, which could be thousands of miles away. Russia has five centres, all in the south-west corner of the country. For those in the rest of the Russian【C7】______, the months it can take to get an appointment at least give them time to organise getting to it. Iraqis are less fortunate. The British embassy in Baghdad does not【C8】______visas, so they have to travel to Lebanon, Jordan or Turkey to apply.
    It is an expensive business, too. Syrians who wish to live in London have to pay 6,100 Syrian pounds(￡ 78, or $123), half a month’ s【C9】______salary. That is assuming they don’t have to pay extra to get all their documentation translated from Arabic into English. Russian officials complain about the cost of【C10】______British visas in their country, which can reach ￡300. The forms are long. Again, America is cheaper and easier.
A)access B)total C)appointment D)obtaining
E)provoked F)easiness G)in time H)produce
I)average J)vastness K)enormous L)passports
M)rigidity N)in advance O)issue [br] 【C4】
选项
答案 N
解析 由前文的any time up to three months可以推测这里要填一个与时间相关的词。分析句意，这里讲的是英国大使馆的网站上建议最早提前三个月申请签证。所以这里填表示“提前”意思的in advance最合适。in time的意思是“及时”，用在这里与后面的any time up to three months(最多三个月内的任何时间)会产生矛盾。因此．选in advance。
