题目解答
答案
解析
- 第1题:考查形容词辨析,需根据语境判断事故的严重程度与修理级别的对应关系。minor表示“小修”,符合“not a serious accident”的语境。
- 第2题:考查虚拟语气的用法,句型“It is highly desirable that”后需用虚拟语气“should be appointed”(should可省略)。
- 第3题:考查固定短语搭配,“to no avail”表示“徒劳无功”,是固定表达。
- 第4题:考查动词辨析,deny表示“否认事实”,后接that从句,符合语境。
- 第5题:考查介词短语的用法,in terms of表示“根据……来判断”,符合句意。
第1题
关键点:事故不严重,修理级别应为“轻微”。
- minor意为“小的、轻微的”,常与repairs搭配,表示“小修”。
- major(重大)、secondary(次要的)、primary(主要的)均与语境矛盾。
第2题
关键点:虚拟语气的固定结构。
- “It is highly desirable that”后需用虚拟语气,即should + 动词原形。
- 主语a new president是动作的承受者,需用被动语态be appointed。
- should可省略,直接保留be appointed。
第3题
关键点:固定短语“to no avail”的用法。
- “to no avail”是固定搭配,表示“徒劳无功”。
- 其他选项(如“for no avail”)不符合英语表达习惯。
第4题
关键点:动词deny与refuse的区别。
- deny表示“否认事实”,后可直接接that从句。
- refuse表示“拒绝请求”,通常接不定式(如refuse to do)。
第5题
关键点:介词短语in terms of的用法。
- in terms of表示“根据……来判断”,符合句意“根据成就大小来评价”。
- in ways of是错误搭配,in favor of表示“支持”,in spite of表示“尽管”。
