    What does the word “piquant” in the last paragraph probably mean?

    正确答案: Interesting.
    解析:
    语义理解题。文章首段提到,在Virginius看来,妻子除了缺少一点令人心动的脆弱之外可以说是堪称完美。之后又表示这样的完美减少了很多乐趣,尤其是爱情的乐趣。文章尾段与首段相互呼应,提到即便是最不挑剔的丈夫也希望妻子具有一些piquant的品质,而不仅仅是善良。由此可以推断,piquant应该是一种让人觉得有趣的品质,而Victoria所缺少的正是这种品质。

    解析:
    结合原文第四段中的“Andi pulled out her phone to contact her husband, Jason, but he didn’t respond”可知,此处表达的是转折关系。她掏出手机联系她的丈夫,但是她的丈夫没有接电话,因此respond在这里表示“回复,回应”。故正确答案为D项。

    What does the word “sprawl” in the first paragraph indicate?

    正确答案: It indicates parts of Orange County extend untidily in different directions.
    解析:
    语义理解题。由题干定位到文章第一段,sprawl一词在该段出现了两次,第一次在“the Los Angeles sprawl”中作动名词,第二次在“sprawling Orange County”中作动词,根据meet一词可知,以上所涉及的两处为两个不同的地区,且是两个区域向外延伸的边缘地带;此外,该段首句还提到,沿着大道,三进三出Cerritos;且sprawl一词原意为“随意地摊开四肢”,由以上几点可以推测出sprawl在此处意为“凌乱地展开”。

    第三段中划线单词They所在句子之前为“Such trips are great for adventurous students”,意思是“这些活动对爱探险的孩子们来说十分有益”,接下来是讲这些活动对另外一类孩子的好处,可知they指代的也是Such trips,即summer camps and outdoor adventures,故D项正确。

    B

    detailed

    C

    surface

    D

    general


    正确答案: C
    解析:
    “cosmetic”的意思可根据最后一段内容来判断:作者虽然对原来的文本做出了改动,但中心论点仍然不变。由此我们可推断作者并未作出实质上的改动,而是肤浅的、表面的的改动。故选项C与文中cosmetic一词的意思相符,为正确答案。

  • 第24题:

    问答题
    In the 2nd paragraph, what does “those who don’t fit the pattern” refer to?

    正确答案: College students who aren’t any better for their higher education.
    解析:
    fit the pattern意为“符合这个模式”,结合上下文可知人们心目中高等教育的模式指的是“college will help them earn more money, become ‘better’ people, and learn to be more responsible citizens than those who don’t go.”,所以那些“不符合这个模式的人”没有很高的收入、没有更好的教养或责任感,是那些接受了高等教育却没有任何进步的人。
