题目解答
答案
解析
本题主要考查词汇的词性、固定搭配以及在语境中的运用。解题时需要根据句子结构、上下文语义来选择合适的词汇。
- 第(1)题：
- “the...of...”是一个常见的结构，这里需要一个名词。
- A选项“humiliate”是动词，意为“使羞辱”；C选项“humility”是名词，但意为“谦逊”；D选项“humble”可作形容词或动词，意为“谦逊的；使谦卑”。
- B选项“humiliation”是名词，意为“羞辱”，符合“the...of...”结构以及句子表达“没有人想承受在班级里垫底的羞辱”的语义，所以选B。
- 第(2)题：
- “proving”是介词，后面需要接名词。
- A选项“hard working”是形容词短语，意为“努力工作的”；B选项“diligent”是形容词，意为“勤奋的”。
- C选项“achievement”意为“成就”，但这里强调的是学生们通过熬夜学习证明的“勤奋”，而不是“成就”。
- D选项“diligence”是名词，意为“勤奋”，符合要求，所以选D。
- 第(3)题：
- “in everyone's mind”是一个固定表达，意为“在每个人心中”。
- B选项“heart”主要强调情感方面，“in one's heart”侧重于内心的感受；C选项“brain”主要指大脑的生理功能；D选项“head”也有“头部”“头脑”的意思，但“in one's head”更强调在脑海里想，但不如“in one's mind”表达“在心中考虑”贴切。
- 这里说的是每个人心中都在考虑毕业后的事情，所以选A。
- 第(4)题：
- “have sth. done”是一个固定结构，表示“使某事被做”。
- A选项“mapping out”是现在分词形式；B选项“map out”是动词原形；D选项“to map out”是不定式形式。

- 第(5)题：
- 这里需要一个形容词来修饰名词“acceptance”。
- A选项“provision”是名词，意为“供应；条款”；B选项“provided”是过去分词，常作后置定语；C选项“providing”是现在分词，也常作后置定语。
- D选项“provisional”是形容词，意为“临时的”，“provisional acceptance”表示“临时接受”，符合语境，所以选D。
