They are openhearted and hospitable; visitors often find that they make friends with them【82】.

A、helpings
B、offerings
C、fillings
D、findings
答案
A
解析
语意搭配题。选项A helpings意为“(饭菜的)分量”,正合句意。选项B offerings(供奉的物品),选项C fillings(填充物)和选项D findings(发现,结果)放在句子中都讲不通。句意:北部人一般心宽体胖胃口好,例如,到兰开郡或约克郡的参观者在吃饭时可以有望吃到丰厚的饭菜。
