In general, cars made by this world-famous company are [reliable] for their breakdowns are rare.
A. dependable
B. considerable
C. stable
D. sustainable
题目解答
答案
A. dependable
解析
本题考查同义词辨析，核心在于理解"reliable"在句中的具体含义。句子强调汽车因故障少而"可靠"，需选择与"可靠"语义最接近的选项。需注意排除与"可靠"无关或意义相近但侧重点不同的选项。
选项分析
A. dependable
"可依赖的，可靠的"，与"reliable"语义完全对应，直接替换后句意通顺。
B. considerable
"相当多的，相当大的"，表示数量或程度，与"可靠"无关，排除。
C. stable
"稳定的"，虽可能与"可靠"有一定关联，但更强调状态稳定（如性能不波动），与句中"故障少"的因果关系匹配度较低。
D. sustainable
"可持续的"，强调长期性或环保性，与"可靠"无关，排除。
