1.A【句意】汤姆•兰德里是美国职业橄榄球大联盟历史上最成功的橄榄球教练之一,他以镇定的举止和激烈的竞争力而出名。
【解析】形容词词义辨析。unruffled“平静的;不骚动的;镇定的”;brutal“残忍的;野蛮的;不讲理的”;suspicious“可疑的;怀疑的;多疑的”;tender“温柔的;柔软的;脆弱的”。由句中关键词“one of the most successful football coaches最成功的橄榄球教练之一”与“fierce competitiveness激烈的竞争力”的对应知“镇定的”符合语境,故A项正确。
2.A
【句意】麦克与自己兄弟很相似的相貌让人们把他们错当成对方。
【解析】固定搭配。根据句中关键词“to”和“mistake them for one another人们把他们错当成对方”的对应可推知“兄弟俩的相貌很相似”,由此知构成固定搭配“resemblance to 与……相似”的A项正确。identity“身份;一致”;appearance“外貌,外观;出现,露面”;relationship“关系;关联”。
