答案与解析:
1. C shabby :不公正的;破旧的。与 unfair (不公正的)意义相同。 Her clothes were old and shabby .他过去穿的衣服既旧又破。 unforgettable :不会忘记的。 A visit to Beijing is an unforgettable experience .去一次北京是一次不会忘记的经历。 unbelievable :不可思议的。It was an unbelievable moment when Du Li won the gold medal.杜丽获金牌之时大家高兴极了。unthinkable:不可想象的。This place is going to be unthinkable without you.这里没有你不知道会变成什么样子。
2. C 不要以为 uneasy 是 easy 的反义词,那样的话就会选 difficult 了。其实 uneasy 是“局促不安的,忧虑的,担心的”意思,I felt uneasy about asking her for such a big favour.求她帮我这么个大忙,我感到有点不安。The very thought of the series of examinations lying ahead made her feel uneasy .一想到等着她的一系列考试就让她感到心神不定。
3. A demolish这个动词是“拆毁,毁掉,推翻”的意思,故pull down是正确答案。其他几个选项均可和houses搭配,但意义和原句不同。rebuild“重建”,renovate“修复,整修”,whitewash“粉刷”。
4. D adverse 这个词的意思是“不利的,逆的 ”,adverse wind :逆风, adverse criticism :非难,adverse situation:不利的形势,adverse balance of trade:贸易逆差。原句的意思是:广告公司对公众对招贴画的不利反应感到惊奇。在四个选项中 adverse 和 unfavorable 同义。另外三个选项都可以用于修饰public reaction, delayed是“延误的”,quick是“迅速的”,positive是“正面的,肯定的”,和 adverse 恰恰相反。
5. B concise 的意思是“简明的 ”,a concise dictionary :一部简明词典。 long and detailed :又长又详尽,意思正好相反, comprehensive“ 全面的 ”,professional“ 专业的”。
6. D courteous 是“有礼貌的,谦恭的”,在四个选项中只有 respectful 和它意义相近。 respectable和 respectful 的区别:前者是“可尊敬的”,后者是“恭敬的,尊重别人的 ”,a respectable gentlemen :一位值得尊敬的先生, a respectful bow :充满敬意的一鞠躬。 efficient“ 有效率的”,well-informed“有学问的”。
7. D invaluable 这个词从形式上看似乎是 valuable ( 贵重的,有价值的)的反义词,其实不然,它的意思恰恰是“无法估计的,十分宝贵的”,故应选extremely useful。其他的搭配还有an invaluable treasure :无价之宝, invaluable advice :很有用的忠告, invaluable heritage :宝贵的遗产。选项A和 invaluable 反义,选项B的意思是“确实很实用”,选项C的意思是“几乎没有”。
8. C 此句的意思是“我认为在这里建一家豪华宾馆的想法简直是荒唐”。 insane 是 sane 的反义词,意思是“精神错乱的,疯狂的”,故该词和mad、 crazy同义。He went insane at last.他最终发疯了。 reasonable 和 sensible 的意思都是“合理的,有理的”,故都和 insane 相反。
9. A exhaustive是“透彻的,彻底的”意思。exhaustive study:透彻的研究,exhaustive investigation:深人的调查。所以extremely thorough是正确答案。Long and boring:长得令人厌倦,superficial: 表面的,unconvincing:不能使人信服的,均不合适。
10. B ingenious:灵巧的,巧妙的,大致上和clever同义。ingenious mind:机灵的头脑,ingenious machine :精巧的机器, ingenious tactics :巧妙的战术等。 effective“ 有效的 ”,implausible“ 不合情理的 ”,original“ 有新意的”。这句话的意思是“他看着招牌广告,心想不知自己是否有资格去应聘”。eligible的意思“有资格做……”“符合做……的条件”。Anyone above the age of 18 is eligible to vote. 18岁以上的人都可以参加选举。Not every resident here is eligible for the medical insurance provided by the community.并非每一个本地的居民都有资格享受社区提供的医疗保险。
12. B vigorous:精力充沛的,有活力的,常用于人。a vigorous young man:一个精力充沛轻人。也可作“强有力的,强劲的,用力的”解。vigorous opponent:强劲的对手,vigorous exercises:运动量大的锻炼。hot-tempered是“脾气大的,性子烈的”意思,patient作形容词则是“耐心的”意思。
13.A 本句的意思是“并非所有的成员国都遵循他们先前达成一致的原则”。 abide by 是个短语,意为“服从,遵守 ”,adhere to 也是一个固定的短语,和 stick to 同义。 abide by 常见的搭配还有 abide by the rule/the law/decision0 The players all abided by the referee's decision although it was not really fair.其余的三个选项apply(应用)、abandon(抛弃)和adopt(采纳)均可以和 principle 搭配,但词义和 abide by 不符。
14. C bias这个名词的意思是“偏袒,偏见”,without bias则是“公平地,公正地”意思。fairly 是形容词fair的副词形式,在这里是“公平地”意思。当然,fairly也可以作“相当,还”解,表示程度。Your English is fairly good.你的英语还不错。
15. B terminate 这个动词意为“结束”,可作及物或不及物动词用。 We have decided to terminate our contract with your company.我们已决定终止与贵公司的合同。The forest terminates in a forest.路的尽头是树林。put an end to是个动词短语。Finally they put an end to the long-standing disputes.最后他们终于结束了长期的争端。resume(中断后重又开始)、 suspend (暂时中断)和 re-schedule (重新制汀时间表)这三个动词都可以和 construction搭配,但词义和 terminate 不相近。
