　　1Aobscure 不清楚的、晦涩的，在四个选项中和 unclear 同义，obvious明显的，恰好是obscure 的反义词;major 和 minor 分别为"主要的"和"次要的"意思。

　　2Aconsiderably 意为"相当大地、在很大程度上"，是副词，修饰动词，故用 greatly 替换。又如: His English has been considerably improved. 他的英语大有起色。slightly 为它的反义词。

　　3C动词 urge"敦促、催促"的意思，push 通常的意义是"推"，但可以转义而具有和urge 相同的意义，又如：The residents are pushing the local authorities to take me measures to handle the pollution problem immediately. 居民们敦促地方当局立即采取措施处理污染问题。

　　4Dapproach 做动词有多种解释，其中一种和 handle 意义相近，即"处理、对待"等，如：approach the issue with an impartial attitude 已不偏不倚的态度来对待这个问题，approach the subject from a historical point of view 从历史的角度来看这个主题。

　　5Cprovoke 是"激起、引发"的意思，如: provoke indignation of the public 激起公愤，cause 可以表达同样的意义，但要普通得多。

　　6Dtolerate 是"忍受"的意思，如: tolerate the heat 忍受酷热，tolerate the loneliness 忍受孤独，tolerate the humiliation 忍受侮辱。和它同义的词常用的有 bear, endure和 stand。

　　7Avigorous 是"活力充沛"的意思，和 energetic 同义

　　8Atrembling 是动词 tremble 的 -ing 分词形式，意思是"发抖"，在四个选项中只有shaking 具有同样的意义。

　　9Chail 这个动词有"热情赞扬、欢呼认可"等意思，如: They hailed the young pianist for his marvelous performance.他们对那位年轻钢琴家的出色演奏大家赞扬。The banditshailed him their leader. 土匪们拥他为王。注意本句中的谓语动词The young man is being hailed. . . 是被动式，现在进行时。

　　10Dscared 是"害怕"的意思，很常用，如: The kids were all scared by his fierce look. 孩子们被他的一脸凶相吓坏了。不过在本句里，scared 并非"惧怕"的意思，而更接近于"担心"的意思，故和 afraid 相当。

　　11Dgrasp 这个动词是"抓住"的意思，可用于具体的事物，如: grasp the rope/my hand 抓住绳索/抓住我的手，也可以用于抽象的概念，如：grasp the main idea/ his meaning 抓住要点/理解他的意思。在本句中 grasp the significance of what had happened 就相当于 understand the significance of what had happened.

　　12Bremark 这个动词就是 "说"的意思，所以这里就用 saying 来代替它。

　　13Aassert 是个比较正式的词，表示"声言、提出主张"等，故和表示自己立场的 maintain 同义。Recommend 推荐，consider 考虑，acknowledge承认。

　　14Csteady 是"稳定的"意思，a steady decline 则是"稳步下降"，在这个上下文中可以用 continuous 来代替它，即"不断下降"。 Sharp decline 则是"急剧下降"。

　　15Afind fault with something/someone 是个固定的表达式，意为"找茬、吹毛求疵"，所以和 criticize(批评)基本同义。
