The word contaminated in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ______.
A

finished

B

interested

C

cleared

D

polluted

参考答案和解析
正确答案: B
解析:
词义推测题。文章第三段提到“a baby given formula in developing countries is 14 times more likely to die in the first six months than one who’s breast-fed”,由此可知,是这些国家水被污染,因此喝配方奶粉长大的孩子比母乳喂养的孩子在出生后的前六个月更容易夭折。因此选择D选项。finish完成,结束。interest使……感兴趣。clear清除,使干净。意思均不符合。

正确答案:A

 本题考查词义理解。“devastating”一词出现在第二段末句,形容最近发生在联合国办事处的汽车炸弹爆炸事件的特点。该句指出,美国官员逐渐认识到过度分散的美国军队已无力独自承担防止这种事件的发生。第一段提到这类爆炸事件时,用了“策划日益精密(increasingly sophisticated)”来形容。由此可见,这类爆炸事件是极具破坏性的,因此引起了美国当局的极大重视。[A]正确,[D]表达含义太泛。

单选题
The word “sleazy” (paragraph 1) is closest in meaning to ______.
A

lacking moisture

B

lacking persistence

C

lacking substance

D

lacking confidence


正确答案: D
解析:
sleazy出现在第一段第三句,该句指出夹克的皮革“damply clinging to her hands”,结合下文提到夹克的口袋像skinny milk toast rats,可知这件夹克质量不好,sleazy在此处指“低劣的”。lack substance原意为“缺少实质内容;不重要”,此处用来形容这件夹克的皮革不好,为正确答案。
