解析
本题考查词汇在语境中的运用,解题思路是结合上下文的语义、语法以及固定搭配来选择合适的单词。
- 第一空:根据前文 “my accidental stumble” 以及 “fell” 可知,这里描述作者绊倒的动作,“stumbled” 意为“绊倒”,符合语境,所以第一空填 “stumbled”。
- 第二空:根据后文 “but contended that...” 可知,丈夫对作者说的话持否定态度,“dismissed” 有“忽视、不理会”的意思,符合丈夫的态度,所以第二空填 “dismissed”。
- 第三空:结合常识,摔倒时听到的“咔嚓”声可能是鞋带断裂的声音,“strap” 可表示“鞋带”,所以第三空填 “strap”。
- 第四空:“swollen like a balloon” 是固定表达,意为“肿得像个气球”,“like” 表示“像”,所以第四空填 “like”。
- 第五空:前文提到 “The unhealthy emotional state”,后面列举了 “distress and misery”,“upset” 可以概括这种不健康的情绪状态,所以第五空填 “upset”。
- 第六空:这种不健康的情绪状态自然会让作者感到不安,“upset” 有“使不安、使心烦”的意思,所以第六空填 “upset”。
- 第七空:“yell in fury” 是固定搭配,意为“愤怒地大喊”,“in” 表示“处于某种状态”,所以第七空填 “in”。
- 第八空:根据前文 “My husband is an attorney” 可知作者有能力写一份书面投诉,“written” 表示“书面的”,所以第八空填 “written”。
- 第九空:根据后文 “disgusting behaviors” 可知,这里需要一个与 “disgusting” 意思相近的词来形容丈夫的行为,“ridendiculous” 意为“荒谬的、可笑的”,符合语境,所以第九空填 “ridiculous”。
- 第十空:作者要求丈夫进行道歉和赔偿,“indefinite” 表示“不确定的、无限的”,“an indefinite amount of” 表示“不确定数量的”,符合作者的要求,所以第十空填 “indefinite”。
