解析
本题考查形容词的词性转换及语境理解。题目要求根据提示词“discern”选择合适的形容词修饰“taste”。解题关键在于:
-
确定词性:空格处需填形容词,修饰名词“taste”;
-
词性转换:“discern”是动词,需转化为形容词形式;
-
语境匹配:句中“higher-end design”和“more comfortable experience”暗示酒店面向有较高审美标准的客户。
-
分析提示词
“Discern”意为“辨别、识别”,其形容词形式为“discerning”,表示“有鉴赏力的、有判断力的”。 -
匹配语境
句子描述酒店面向“品味更高”(a little more taste)的客户,强调“高端设计”和“舒适体验”,说明客户群体审美标准高,因此需用“discerning”体现“有鉴赏力的品味”。 -
排除干扰项
“Discernible”(可辨别的)不符合修饰“taste”的语境,故排除。
