【2】word

【3】popular

【4】camera

【5】However

【6】cause

【解析】

本文講述了V形手勢(shì)表示“勝利”這個(gè)想法的來歷。它開始于第二次世界大戰(zhàn)期間，1941年1月4日，一個(gè)名叫維克多的比利時(shí)人向他的同胞做了一次廣播。他發(fā)現(xiàn)了一個(gè)引人注目的V形手勢(shì)。字母V不僅代表他的名字，還代表“勝利”。后來這個(gè)標(biāo)志變的流行起來，但是在美國(guó)和英國(guó)所代表的意思有所不同。

【1】句意：這個(gè)想法從何而來?

根據(jù)“People use the V-sign, standing for “victory” around the world”全世界的人都用v形手勢(shì)表示“勝利”。結(jié)合所給首字母，所以此處是想法，故答案為idea。

【2】句意：字母V不僅代表他的名字，還代表“勝利”。

根據(jù)“victory”是個(gè)單詞，結(jié)合所給首字母，故答案為word。

【3】句意：這個(gè)標(biāo)志很快就流行起來。

根據(jù)系動(dòng)詞+形容詞，構(gòu)成系表結(jié)構(gòu)。結(jié)合“became”是系動(dòng)詞，結(jié)合所給首字母，故答案為popular。

【4】句意：每次他照相時(shí)提出擺姿勢(shì)。

根據(jù)“Every time he posed（擺姿勢(shì)）for a c__4__, he gave his famous “V” for “Victory.””所以此處是照相，故答案為camera。

【5】句意：然而在美國(guó)，這兩種姿態(tài)在英國(guó)有很大的不同。

根據(jù)“there is a great difference between the two gestures in the UK”這兩種姿態(tài)在英國(guó)有很大的不同，所以此處是轉(zhuǎn)折，結(jié)合所給首字母，故答案為However。

【6】句意：有時(shí)候這可能會(huì)引起一些誤解。

根據(jù)“Sometimes this will c___6___ some misunderstanding for a visitor to Britain”有時(shí)候這可能會(huì) 一些誤解，結(jié)合“will”+動(dòng)詞原形，結(jié)合所給首字母，故答案為cause。
