题目解答

答案

1. complicated 2. odd 3. confessed 4. status 5. meanwhile 6. incomes 7. overseas 8. reassured 9. brag 10. streamed

解析

本题主要考查根据语境选择恰当单词的能力，需要结合上下文理解空格处所需词义，并注意词性、搭配及固定用法。解题核心在于：

  1. 明确单词含义：掌握目标词的词性和常见搭配；
  2. 分析句子逻辑：通过上下文判断空格处的情感色彩（如褒贬）、动作主体及对象；
  3. 排除干扰项：注意同义词或近义词的细微差别。

1. complicated

关键点：fake project需体现“复杂性”以显得真实，complicated（复杂的）符合语境。

2. odd

关键点：度假本应放松，却因“忙碌感”产生奇怪的心理状态，odd（奇怪的）贴切。

3. confessed

关键点：动作主体是friend，表达主动承认困难，confess（承认）更显主观性。

4. status

关键点：高地位人群因工作繁忙难以见面，status（地位）与“career”搭配自然。

5. meanwhile

关键点：前后句形成对比（忙碌→消失感），meanwhile（然而）表转折。

6. incomes

关键点：收入水平（incomes）与工作时长直接相关，符合经济语境。

7. overseas

关键点： faxing things需体现跨国性质，overseas（海外）符合商业场景。

8. reassured

关键点：通过忙碌确认自我价值，reassured（确信）体现心理安慰。

9. brag

关键点： busy people常炫耀忙碌，brag（吹嘘）更显自夸意味。

10. streamed

关键点：阳光“流泻”进厨房，streamed（流淌）具画面感。
