(C)excuse
(D)laud
(E)suspect
本题只有一个空白,那么我们集中精力攻克就可以了,但是不一定就比两个空白的简单,要从句子整体寻找对应。
第一个关键步骤就是发现破题点,在此依旧为一个单词deliberately,即我们所说的表示语气的词,既然是故意的,那么该行为所表达的动作一定不是正面的,按照这个意思去理解,选项中的A和D首先被排除,因为这两个词都是从正面去说的,再结合原句的意思不难发现正确答案为B。
分析选项词汇的感情色彩
除了从原句中找带有感情色彩的关键词汇以外,考生也可以根据选项中词汇带有的褒义贬义来进行排除和解题,根据选项词汇的语气态度来寻找能和原句保持一致的正确答案。
请看以下真题实例。
Thescientistfounditpuzzlingthathisrivalstheoryretainedits_______despitewidespreadsuggestionsthatitwasnow_______.
A.perspective...dated
B.currency...moribund
C.appeal...accepted
D.complexity...unfathomable
E.credibility...recognized
本句从整体上判断属于转折关系句型,而且空白出现在两个分句中,需要将二者结合起来考虑,乍一看不能立即排除掉任何一个选项,这时候就应该把选项依次代入原句,根据句子结构这两个空白处要填的词语气相反,按照这个逻辑去对应,只有B符合要求。
PaleontologistassumptionsabouttheequablenatureoftheclimateontheprimevalislandofPangaeaare________computersimulationsindicatingthattheislandstemperaturestendedto_______duringthecourseofayear.
A.basedon...cool
B.confirmedby...vary
C.challengedby...stabilize
D.bolsteredby...soar
E.underminedby...fluctuate
本题是综合性质的,从句子整体来看属于现在分词起解释说明的作用,也不能立即排除掉任何选项,但通过比较选项可以将其分为正面语气和反面语气,从而按照结合句意缩小范围,均衡二者之后,可以得出如果第一个空白处为正面语气,也就是说computersimulations起到了好的作用,那么第二个空应该就是表示稳定之类的词语,反之如果是起到了不好的作用,则要变得notequable。
本题正确答案为E。
