题目解答
答案
本题考察形容词辨析。句意为：地方政府一直提供____支持，没有这种支持，他们不可能如此成功。
- A. annual：表频率，不符。
- B. amusing：语义不符。
- C. substantial：表“大量、实质性的”，符合句意。
- D. magnificent：不搭配“support”。
综合分析，C项“substantial”最能体现“关键性支持”。
答案：C. substantial
解析
本题考查形容词辨析，需根据语境选择最合适的形容词修饰名词"support"。关键点在于理解句子中"support"的性质：地方政府提供的支持是关键性、实质性的，使得他们取得成功成为可能。需排除与语境不符的选项。
选项分析
A. annual
- annual表示"每年的"，强调时间频率。但句中未提及时间间隔，且"annual support"无法体现支持的"关键性"，故排除。
B. amusing
- amusing意为"有趣的"，与"support"语义完全不符，直接排除。
C. substantial
- substantial意为"大量的、实质性的"，能表达政府提供的支持是关键且充足的，与后文"没有这种支持他们无法成功"形成逻辑呼应，符合句意。
D. magnificent
- magnificent表示"宏伟的"，通常修饰建筑物、成就等，与"support"搭配不常见，且无法体现支持的"实质效果"，故排除。
