答案与解析:

1.a。

一艘船处于危难之中,请指出其准确位置。此题可根据句意,用排除法来做。

locality位置;发生地;所在地。b. hazard危险;冒险:at all hazards不顾任何危险。c. loss损失:loss of blood失血。d. district地区。题中说“指出确切的位置”,而不是其所处的大致地区,故不能选d。

2.a。

我不知道他的生意是否完全合法,因为在相关法律中无明确的规定.此题为形容词辨析题,根据句意来判断。legitimate合法的;亲生的。b. reliable可靠的。reliable填入题中也讲得通,但与law则联系不紧,不及legitimate直接明了。c. obedient服从的;听话的:obedient children听话的孩子们。d. workable可使用的;可行的。c、d则与法律中的规定挂不上钩。本句的关键词:the related law相关的法律,a为最佳选择。

3.答c。

众所周知太阳发光发热,这是地球上植物生长必不可少的.此题为近义词辨析题,四个选项均与“light”搭配,要根据句意来判断。radiates辐射(光或热);从中心发散。a. sprays喷(射)。b. absorbs吸收。

d. reflects反射。根据常识太阳是发光发热的,而不是喷射(吸收、反射)光和热,故c为正确选择。

4.b。

现在回想起来,这个实验比我们原来想象的更难。此题为词组辨析题,四个选项均能与“in”搭配,要根据句意判断。

retrospect回顾。in retrospect回顾(主要指回首过去的事情)。a. response回答:in response to your inquiry答复你的咨询。c. consequence(某事的)后果;影响:in consequence (of)结果;因而。d. particular特殊的:in particular特别地;尤其。根据题意,试验事实上的难度与我们以前想象的难度进行对比,这本身就是一种回顾。

5.c。

为逃避老师的责备,他为自己的缺席找了一个站不住脚的借口。此题主要考形容词词义辨析,根据句意来判断。lame(指辩解,论据等)不能说服人的。a. liberal慷慨的;

大方的;充足的:a liberal supply of food食物的充分供给。b. temporary临时的;暂时的:temporary employment临时工作。d. disabled残废的:disabled exservice men残废的退役军人。本句中:语境是怕责备,找的借口是靠得住或靠不住(lame),而不是临时(temporary)。

6.a。

这个节目被转播到欧洲,使这一地区的人都能听到我们的声音。此题为近义词辨析题,题干中“broadcast”为关键词。

relayed转播(从另一台收到的广播节目)。这个广播节目被转播到欧洲,使这一地区的人民能听到我们的声音。b. export出口(一般指商品等的出口)。c. transfer转移;迁移(一般指地理位置等的变更)。d. transport运输。

7.c。

根据各自的能力,他们三人被分配到不同的地方工作。此题为形近词辨析题,b、c、d为同根形容词,意义却相差甚远。

respective各自的。a. identical同一的。显然这与题中的“different”

相悖(因为无转折关系)。b. respectable有身份的;受尊重的;体面的。d. respectful表示尊敬的;有礼貌的:respectful behavior有礼貌的行为。

8.b。

他询问商店后面的商品是否出售。

此题b、c、d为形近词,a、c为近义词。题干中“whether”为关键词。inquire询问:inquire of sb. the reason for sth.问某

人某事的原因。a. demand要求(语气很重,含强求,催促之意)。c. require要求;需要。d. request(客气地)请求(比ask正式)。本句中whether暗示是询问。

9.答案c。

吃了败仗的军队不得不匆忙从战场撤退至山区。此题为近义词辨析题,b、c、d均有“退”的意思。retreat撤退。尤指军队的撤退。吃了败仗的军队不得不匆忙从战场撤退至山区。a. retrieve取回;重新得到;补救:retrieve an error补救错误;retrieve a lost piece of luggage找回一件遗失的行李。b. resign辞(职);放弃(要求等):resign one’s job辞去工作;resign from the cabinet辞去阁员之职。d. quit停止。

10.d。

老师还很虚弱,不要逗留太长时间。

此题为近义词辨析题,b、d为近义词,题干中“visit”为关键词。prolong sth.延长某活动的时间。prolong a meeting into

midnight把会一直开到午夜。a. delay延期;延误(使某活动不能按正常时间进行):delay the meeting把会议延期(举行)。b. lengthen加长某物体的长度:lengthen a skirt把裙子放长。c. shorten缩短,其反义词为lengthen。老师还很虚弱,当然逗留的时间不能长。prolong...visit搭配正确。
