题目解答
答案
本题考察“in the final ___”的搭配。A项“estimate”指“估计”,不符句意;B项“trend”指“趋势”,与“最终结论”无关;C项“shift”指“转变”,也不合适。D项“analysis”可构成“in the final analysis”,意为“最终分析”或“归根结底”,最贴合句意。完整句子为:“In the final analysis, we ought to bear in mind that calmness is essential for good performance in a test.” 表明“最终,应记住冷静对考试表现至关重要。”
答案:D. analysis
解析
本题考查固定短语的搭配,核心在于识别介词短语"in the final ___"的正确用法。解题关键点在于:
- 理解句意:句子强调"最终"或"归根结底"时的表达方式;
- 掌握选项词义:需明确每个选项名词的常见含义及搭配;
- 固定搭配记忆:重点记忆"in the final analysis"这一固定短语,意为"最终分析"或"归根结底"。
选项分析
A. estimate
- 词义:估计、估算
- 搭配问题:"in the final estimate" 不是固定搭配,且句意强调考试心态而非估算行为。
B. trend
- 词义:趋势、倾向
- 搭配问题:"in the final trend" 无法构成合理短语,且"趋势"与"最终结论"无关。
C. shift
- 词义:转变、转移
- 搭配问题:"in the final shift" 无法表达"最终"的含义,且"shift"强调变化过程。
D. analysis
- 固定搭配:"in the final analysis" 是固定短语,表示"最终分析"或"归根结底",与句中"we ought to bear in mind"的总结性语境高度匹配。
