答案:1.C shabby:不公正的;破舊的。與unfair(不公正的)意義相同。Her clothes were old and shabby.他過去穿的衣服既舊又破。unforgettable:不會忘記的。A visit to Beijing is an unforgettable experience.去一次北京是一次不會忘記的經(jīng)歷。unbelievable:不可思議的。It Was an unbelievable moment whcn Du Li won the gold medal.杜麗獲金牌之時(shí)大家高興極了。unthinkable:不可想象的。This place is going to be unthinkable without you.這里沒有你不知道會變成什么樣子。
2.C不要以為uneasy是easy的反義詞,那樣的話就會選difficult了。其實(shí)uneasy是"局促不安的,憂慮的,擔(dān)心的"意思,I felt uneasy about asking her for such a big favour.求她幫我這么個大忙,我感到有點(diǎn)不安。The very thought of the series of examinations lying ahead made her feel uneasy.一想到等著她的一系列考試就讓她感到心神不定。
3.A demolish這個動詞是"拆毀,毀掉,*"的意思,故pull down是正確答案。、其他幾個選項(xiàng)均可和houses搭配,但意義和原句不同。rebuild"重建",renovate"修復(fù),整修",whitewash"粉刷"。
4.D adverse這個詞的意思是"不利的,逆的",adverse wind:逆風(fēng),adverse criticism:非難,adverse situation:不利的形勢,adverse balance of trade:貿(mào)易逆差。原句的意思是:廣告公司對公眾對招貼畫的不利反應(yīng)感到驚奇。在四個選項(xiàng)中adverse和unfavorable同義。另外三個選項(xiàng)都可以用于修飾public roBSon,delayed是"延誤的",quick是"迅速的",positive是"正面的,肯定的",和adverse恰恰相反。
5.B concise的意思是"簡明的",a concise dictionary:一部簡明詞典。long and detailed:又長又詳盡,意思正好相反,comprehensive"全面的",professional"專業(yè)的"。
