Alan and Linda always dreamed of living " the good life ".【C3】______from poor working-class families, they married young and set out to fulfill their【C4】______goal of becoming wealthy. They both worked very hard for years,【C5】______a small fortune, so they could move from their two-bedroom home toa(n)【C6】______seven-bedroom home in the most upscale neighborhood. They focused their energies【C7】______ accumulating all the things they believed【C8】______ abundance: membership in the local【C9】______ country club, luxury cars, designer clothing, and high-class society【C10】______. No matter how much they accumulated,【C11】______, it never seemed to be enough. They were unable to erase the deep fear of scarcity both【C12】______in childhood. They needed to learn the【C13】______of abundance. Then the stock market【C14】______in 1987, and Alan and Linda lost a considerable amount of money.
One thing【C15】______another, and they found themselves in a financial disaster.【C16】______ needed to be sold, and【C17】______they lost the country club membership, the cars, and the house. It took several years and much hard work for Alan and Linda to land on their【C18】______.

选项
A、signified
B、simulated
C、implied
D、signaled
答案
A
解析
动词辨析题。[A]signified“意味着,表示……意义”,此处和abundance搭配使用表示“意味着富有”的含义,符合句意,故为正确答案。[B]simulated“装作,假装”、[C]implied“暗示,暗指”、[D]signaled“发信号”皆不符合句意,故排除。
