Of wealth, power and prestige, power is the hardest to measure. Most studies are nothing more than an average of 【C2】______ about where power is found. Many forms of power are so 【C3】______ hidden that only its holders know the source. Because it’s so hard to 【C4】______ , and tied to ideology, the subject of power is a source of much 【C5】______ in sociology. Some maintain that power in America is concentrated in the 【C6】______ of a few people who have a common 【C7】______ and who tend to act together. Wright Mills 【C8】______ that America is 【C9】______ by a "power elite". Others believe that power in America is 【C10】______ among many groups and people.
Sociologists do agree that real power may not always lie 【C11】______ we think it does. Mayors of some cities, 【C12】______ , are sometimes mere figureheads looking impressive. The actual decisions are made by a handful of business leaders staying behind the 【C13】______ . Some are made at the lowest level, where the work is really 【C14】______ Such is the 【C15】______ with the police officers or teachers.

选项
A、test
B、measure
C、balance
D、detect
答案
B
解析
动词语义题。根据上下文句意:“因为如此难以测定…”,这里应该填写“衡量、测定”的意思。只有选项B measure合适。并且该段第一句已出现这个词,有提示。选项A test“进行测验”,含义是以某种手段来试一试某人或某物是否达到了一定的标准;选项C balance意思是“权衡比较,使抵消”;选项D detect意思是“查明,发现”,意思不合适。
