The producers of instant coffee found their product strongly resisted in the market places despite their obvious advantages. Furthermore, the advertising expenditure for instant coffee was far greater than that for regular coffee. Efforts were【C1】______ to find the cause of the consumers’ seemingly unreasonable【C2】______ to the product. The reason given by most people was【C3】______ for the taste. The producers suspected that there might be【C4】______ reasons, however. This was confirmed by one of【C5】______ research’s classic studies, one often cited in the trade. Mason Haire, of the University of California,【C6】______ two shopping lists that were identical except for one【C7】______ . There were six items common to both lists, carrots, baking power, bread, canned peaches and potatoes,【C8】______ the brands or amounts specified. The seventh item, in the fifth【C9】______ both fists, read "! pound.

选项
A、Mostly
B、Largely
C、Partly
D、Nearly
答案
D
解析
词汇辨义题。本句的意思是:“拿到含有速溶咖啡的女性几乎有一半将清单制定者描述成一位懒惰的、不会规划的主妇。”本题考查学习者对几个近义副词的辨别能力。四个选项中,A Mostly“主要地,大部分”;B Largely“主要地,很大程度上”;C Partly“部分,几分”;D Nearly“几乎”,例如:Nearly everybody enters for‘The Nicest Garden Competition’each year,but Joe wins every time.(几乎每个人都参加一年一度‘最佳花园赛’,但乔每次都夺魁。)综合分析,由于下文中已有 half一词,所以mostly,largely及partly不宜再用,只有nearly符合句子意思。因此选项D为正确答案。
