    正确答案： C

  • 第18题：

    问答题
    What does the word “piquant” in the last paragraph probably mean?

    正确答案： Interesting.
    解析：
    语义理解题。文章首段提到，在Virginius看来，妻子除了缺少一点令人心动的脆弱之外可以说是堪称完美。之后又表示这样的完美减少了很多乐趣，尤其是爱情的乐趣。文章尾段与首段相互呼应，提到即便是最不挑剔的丈夫也希望妻子具有一些piquant的品质，而不仅仅是善良。由此可以推断，piquant应该是一种让人觉得有趣的品质，而Victoria所缺少的正是这种品质。

  • 第19题：

    C

    Classified.

    正确答案： D
    解析：
    considerably位于最后一段句首，作为副词修饰drop。该句意思是自从Parris开始她的研究后，墨尔本的青蛙数量下降…。B项“直接地”，C项“认真地”明显不符合题意。由最后一段最后一句知十年干旱期间，池塘的数量越来越少，可知青蛙数量下降有一个过程，不是突然的，因此A项错误。
