【华慧考博】考博英语每日一练(10.9)参考答案
1.A【句意】今天早上的这场交通事故的原因是一个司机的车失控了。
【解析】表语从句的连接词辨析。分析可知空白处需填一个表语从句的连接词;空后的内容是对主语the reason内容的说明,且从句中不缺少成分,故应选A项,that在从句中不作任何成分,没有任何意义。
2.D
【句意】你同意猴子是人类的祖先的说法吗?
【解析】名词词义辨析。offspring“后代,子孙”;successor“继承者;接班人;接替的事物”;breeder“饲养员;繁殖者;起因”;predecessor“前任;前辈;祖先”。由句中关键词“the saying that the monkey was the…猴子是……的说法”与“of the human race人类的”的对应知“祖先”符合语境,故D项正确。
