【华慧考博】考博英语每日一练(8.29)参考答案
1.B【句意】遗憾的是,他全心全意地接受这个经济政策暗含的假设,而这削弱了他自己对该政策影响的破坏性抨击。
【解析】动词词义辨析题。supplement“增补,补充”;undermine“破坏,渐渐破坏;削弱”;redeem“赎回;补偿;恢复”;divert“转移;使……欢娱;使……转向”。由句中关键词“Unfortunately遗憾的是”、“his damaging attacks他的破坏性抨击”与“his wholehearted acceptance of that policy’s underlying assumptions他全心全意地接受这个经济政策暗含的假设”的对应知“削弱”符合语境,故B项正确。
2.A
【句意】他的办公室离该邮局仅一步之遥。
【解析】固定搭配。由固定搭配“a stone’s throw一步之遥”知A项正确。
