Misery may love company, but this was ridiculous. More than
a million IBM stockholders last week took a nightmare ride on a
stock they had long trusted. IBM had been sliding all year recent【S1】______
hitting 10-year lows, but after the company announced last Tuesday
that it would, among other things, slash another 25,000 jobs, the
stock took a historic rise. In 48 hours, it lost 11 points, or almost【S2】______
18 percent of its value, closing Wednesday at 51. On Friday it hit
other new low. Big Board officials camped out on the exchange floor【S3】______
to prevent chaotic, land brokers fielded frantic calls from investors【S4】______
in various stages of disbelief and agony. " They’re screaming and
hollering," said Carol Komskis of York Securities. They are
saying, "Things like this just don’t happen in America. "
Stock prices that rise and fall are anything new; that’s what【S5】______

选项
答案
even∧一if/though
解析
连词误用。主句意思是“像IBM、通用汽车和西屋电气公司这类股票的魅力在于你买了之后感觉到安全”,从句说“即使你不懂得赚钱”。可见主句与从句之间是让步关系,因此使用even if或者even though。even表递进且不能引导从句,不符合文意。
