【单选题】

A.necessary

B.normal

C.difficult

D.good

正确答案:

C

答案解析:

第三段第一句是本段的主题句，意思是：

有时候不利条件也会产生有利的因素。

接着应是具体说明。

空格所在句的大概意思是：

当工人们不得不彼此依赖以寻求安全和心理安慰时，大家的友谊随之增深了。

这是一种得到补偿的有利的东西，那么空格应填入的最合适的词显然是difficult（困难）。

necessary:

必需的；normal:

正常的；good:

好的。

将这些选项填人后，句子前半部分表达的不是不利的因素，而是有利的因素，跟主题句不能构成连贯的语段。

答案解析:

本题有一定的难度，考生不太好定位，需要认真读第一段找答案。

做本题时可以先看选项，得到信息提示。
