题目解答
答案
A. barren
解析
本题考查对词汇含义的理解以及在特定语境中的运用。解题的关键在于分析分析句子所描述的的沙漠景观的特点,然后从选项中选择最符合该特点的词汇。
- 首先,句子描述沙漠景观的句子为“an empty road through a _ desert landscape”,“empty”表明沙漠是空旷、荒凉的。
- 接着分析:
- A选项“barren”,其含义为“贫瘠的;荒芜的”,“a barren desert landscape”表示“一片荒芜的沙漠景观”,与“empty”所表达的空旷、荒凉的意思相契合。
- B选项“robust”,意思是“健壮的;强健的”意思,通常用于形容人或事物具有健康、强壮的特质,与沙漠景观的特点不相符。
- C选项“bound”,常见含义为“受约束的;装订的”,与沙漠景观的描述毫无关联。
- D选项“bound”,常见含义为“受约束的;装订的”,与沙漠景观的描述毫无关联。
