问题     Western-style conversations often develop quite differently from Japanese-style conversations. A Western-style conversation between two people is like a【C1】______of tennis. If I introduce a topic, a conversational ball, I expect you do【C2】______it back. If you agree with me, I don’t expect you simply to agree and to【C3】______more. I expect you to add something to carry the idea further.【C4】______I don’t expect you always to agree. I am just as【C5】______if you completely disagree with me.【C6】______you agree or disagree, your【C7】______will return the ball to me. And then it is my turn【C8】______.I don’t serve a new ball from my【C9】______starting line. I hit your ball back again to you by【C10】______your idea further. And so the ball goes back and forth,【C11】______each of us doing our best to give it a new twist.
A Japanese-style conversation,【C12】______, is not at all like tennis or volleyball. It’s like bowling. You【C13】______for your turn. And you always know your【C14】______in line. It depends on such things as whether you are older or younger, a close friend or a relative stranger【C15】______the previous speaker, in a senior or junior position, and so on. When your turn comes, you【C16】______up to the starting line with your bowling ball, and【C17】______bowi it. Everyone else stands back and watches politely, whispering【C18】______. Everyone waits until the ball has reached the end of the alley, and watches to see if it【C19】______down all the pins, or only some of them, or none of them. There is a pause, while everyone registers your【C20】______.
【C18】

选项 A、instruction
B、satisfaction
C、agreement
D、encouragement

答案A

解析 本题考查词义的辨析。instruction是说明,satisfaction是满意,agreement是同意,encouragement是勇气。一个人在打球的时候别人只能是在旁边悄悄地讨论认为该怎么出球这样的说明,故选A。
