The others【C2】______to themselves as Welsh, Scottish, or Irish,【C3】______the case may be; they are often slightly annoyed【C4】______being classified as "English".
Even in England there are many【C5】______in regional character and speech. The chief【C6】______is between southern England and northern England. South of a 【C7】______ going from Bristol to London, people speak the type of English usually learnt by foreign students, 【C8】______ there are local variations.

选项
A、perfect
B、notorious
C、superior
D、thorough
答案
D
解析
考查形容词辨析。此空所在句子意为:北部人往往声称他们比南部人更勤奋,因而更______。根据句意,可知选D.thorough“纯正,完美”。perfect没有比较级和最高级形式,因而句中既然有more,就不能再接perfect了。superior是从拉丁语接纳到英语中来的形容词比较级,故不能与more连用。notorious“臭名昭著的”与上下文内容相悖,故不能入选。
