【解析】形容词辨析题。conservative“保守的”；confidential“机密的；表示信任的”；comprehensive“综合的；广泛的；有理解力的”；connotative“内涵的；隐含的；含蓄的”。由句中关键词“Although Asian countries are generally more ______ in social custom than Western countries虽然亚洲国家在社会风俗上通常比西方国家更为……”与“there have been notable examples of women leaders in both China and India在中国和印度有女性领导人的显著例子”的对应知“保守的”更符合语境，故A项正确。

2.C
【句意】你不能想象有时我如何感觉被我的职责所压倒。
【解析】动词词义辨析题。overflow“使溢出；使泛滥；使充溢”；overthrew（其动词过去分词为overthrown）“推翻；打倒”；overwhelm“淹没；压倒；受打击；覆盖；压垮”；overturn“推翻；倾覆；破坏”。由关键词“my duties我的职责”的对应知“压倒”符合语境，故C项正确。
