问题     As she walked round the huge department store, Edith reflected how difficult it was to choose a suitable Christmas present for her father. She wished that he was as easy to please as her mother, who was always【C1】______with perfume.
    Besides, shopping at this time of the year was a most disagreeable experience: people【C2】______on your toes, poked you with their elbows and almost knocked you over in their haste to get to a bargain ahead of you.
    Partly to have a rest, Edith paused in front of a counter where some attractive ties were【C3】______. "They are real silk," the assistant assured her, trying to tempt her. "It’s【C4】______no doubt the price". But Edith knew from past experience that her choice of ties【C5】______ever pleased her father.
    She moved on reluctantly and then quite by chance, stopped【C6】______a small crowd of men had gathered round a counter. She found some good quality pipes on sale—and the prices were very【C7】______. Edith did not hesitate for long: although her father only smoked a pipe 【C8】______, she knew that this was a present which was bound to please him.
    When she got home, with her small but【C9】______present concealed in her handbag, her parents were already at table having supper. Her mother was in a especially cheerful【C10】______, "Your father has at last decided to stop smoking," she informed her daughter.
【C3】
选项 A、on board
B、on business
C、on display
D、on fire
答案C
解析 从句意看，一些漂亮的领带应该是陈列在柜台里，所以C项on display正好符合句意，为正确答案。A项意为“在船、车或飞机上”，与本段内容无关；B项意为“因事，因公”，如：go to Shanghai on business(因公出差到上海)；D项意为“着火”。因此A项、B项和D项都不正确。
