【华慧考博】考博英语每日一练(10.31)参考答案
1.C【句意】上个月法国恢复在南太平洋的核试验引起了政治辩论和大规模的游行示威。
【解析】形近名词词义辨析题。assumption“假定;设想”;consumption“消费”;resumption“恢复;重新开始;取回;重获”;presumption“假定;推测;设想”。由句中关键词“nuclear testing核试验”与“triggered political debates and mass demonstrations引起了政治辩论和大规模的游行示威”的对应知“恢复”符合,故答案选项为C。
2.D
【句意】具有讽刺意味的是,已被选入立法机构的进步人士的抵制是这个政党的领导人们努力建立一个进步的政党的最大障碍。
【解析】词义辨析。由上下文可以判断第一空encounter“遭遇(问题)”后应填入一个负面色彩的词,这样就除了分别有“benefit利益;好处”和“praise表扬”的A项和C项;再由“the progressive already elected to the legislature已经被选入立法机构的进步人士”、“efforts to build a progressive party建立进步的政党的努力”与“Ironically具有讽刺意味的是”的对应知“阻碍”更符合语境,故D项“obstacle to ... resistance”正确。
