问题 ______springs not out of true and deep admiration, but more often out of a self-seeking wish to identify with someone important or famous.

选项 A、A compliment
B、An adulatory
C、Flattery
D、Praise

答案C

解析 本句的意思是“奉承话并非出自真诚的、深刻的仰慕,更多情况下是出自一种利己主义的期望,期望自己被某个重要人物或名人认同”。flattery意为“奉承话,谄媚的举动”,是贬义词。如:He is above flattery.(他讨厌别人向他谄媚)。“compliment称赞,褒扬,褒义词;adulatory谄媚的,吹捧的;praise赞扬,歌颂”都与句意不符,因此只有C项为正确答案。
