    The goals ___________ he had fought all his life no longer seemed important to him.

    A.after which
    B.for which
    C.with which
    D.at which

    答案:B
    解析:
    考查习惯搭配。这是一个“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句,修饰先行词goals。从句中有动词fight与介词构成的动介短语,将介词提到关系代词which前就形成了现在的结构。因此,只需要判别 fight与下面各介词构成的搭配的含义即可:fight after“争夺”,fight for“为……而奋斗”,fight with“与……战斗”,没有fight at搭配。结合句意“他为之奋斗一生的目标似乎对他不再重要了”可知,答案为B项。

    A:informed

    解析:
    本句意思:“他告知朋友们,他的地址发生了变化。”inform:通知、告知。例如:He was informed of the admission to the university this morning.今天早晨他被告知被那所大学录取了。observe:观察、注意到。例如:Small progress has been observed on him recently.最近在他身上看到了小小的进步。mock:嘲笑、取笑。例如:We should by no means mock others' shortcomings.我们不应该取笑别人的缺点。mislead:误导。例如:His words at the party misled us into believing that he was correct.在晚会上他的话让我们误以为他是正确的。

  • 第7题:

    单选题
    Although his friends insisted that his black garb was simply depressing, Peter felt just the opposite—that it gave him an air of upbeat, ______ maturity.
    A

    melancholic

    B

    wearisome

    C

    salacious

    D

    aghast

    E

    urbane


    正确答案: D
    解析:
    “Although”表明前后两句形成对比关系,前半句提到朋友们觉得Peter的黑色装扮“depressing”(压抑的,使人沮丧的),那么后半句表明Peter与朋友们的看法正好相反—他觉得黑色装扮让自己看起来活力十足,因此空格处要填的词语应该表达积极的意义。A melancholic忧郁的,抑郁的;B wearisome使厌倦的,乏味的;C salacious好色的,猥亵的;D aghast吃惊的,吓呆的;E urbane彬彬有礼的,温文尔雅的,因此只有E项符合语境。
