【华慧考博】考博英语每日一练(10.23)参考答案
1.C
【句意】在思想史上反复发生的挫折和悲剧之一是由不确定是否可用先前解决似乎有同样性质的问题的传统方法来解决给定问题导致的。
【解析】语法结构---it充当形式主语及连词whether。由空格后“to solve a given problem”为不定短语在这里充当真正的主语知这里需使用形式主语it;再由关键词“uncertainty不确定”与选项中“possible可能的”对应知这里指代“不确定是否可能”,即“uncertainty”后面接的是一个同为语从句,连接词为“whether”,由此知C项正确。
2.C
【句意】经常在电脑前,眼睛有点痒,有点涩,用那种眼药水比较好,刺激小。
【分析】名词词义辨析题。ache“疼痛”;fever“发烧”;acerbity“酸;涩”;sore“(肌肤的)痛处,伤处”。由句中关键词“the eye is a bit urticant眼睛有点痒”与“eyedrop眼药水”的对应知“涩”更符合语境,故C项正确。
