[字彙] 幾題填空請教

[woody3724 (woody)]

Although political events in different countries were not (i) _____ in the

nineteen century, their interrelationship was (ii)_____ compared with the

present, when interdependence has become far greater: (iii)_____ has ceased

to be an option.

Blank (i)                    Blank(ii)                       Blank(iii)

(A) unconnected            (D) conditional                   (G) isolationism

(B) trivial               (E) superficial                   (H) resillience

(C) simultaneous           (F) transparent                   (I) idealism

這題的問題在於第三個空格

從冒號以前的所有資訊可以得出

在過去，國家之間的聯繫是薄弱的，而冒號後面是要表達____不再是一個選項

因此我推斷空格應該要填團結、聯繫之類的詞，因此就把isolationism第一個刪除

沒想到它竟然是答案.........能否請高手解是第三個空格  謝謝


=============================================================================

The notion of film producers as the ogres of the movie business has proved an

(i)_____ one, but according to The Producers by Tim Adler, it is not always

grounded in reality. Attacking what he calls the “auteur myth”—the idea of

the director as the single purveyor of art in an industry otherwise peopled

with (ii)_____—he places at the heart of his book an image of the producer,

not the director, as the primary (iii)_____ force in the development and

production of a movie.

Blank(i)                 Blank(ii)                    Blank(iii)

(A) accurate            (D) visionaries               (G) finacial

(B) hypocritic          (E) profitmongers             (H) inertial

(C) enduring            (F) innocents                 (I) creative

這題.......三個空格完全沒想任何想法

整題也完全看不懂要表達甚麼

=============================================================================

The (i)_____ nature of the candidate’s comments is calculated. As a

long-standing target of critics who regard him as radical, he understands

that he needs to be as (ii)_____ as possible if he is to overcome those

critiques and appear as a (iii)_____ leader.

Blank(i)                    Blank(ii)                  Blank(iii)

(A) opprobrious            (D) innocuous               (G) polarizing

(B) platitudinous          (E) truculent               (H) cautious

(C) pugnacious             (F) supercilious            (I) concillatory

這題的問題在第一個空格

許多人批評這位候選人是radical激進的

若他想要當一個concillatory的領導者，他就要盡可能的innocuous

因此第一個空格我填pugnacious，但答案竟然是(B)

我從文章資訊完全看不出這位候選人有陳腔濫調的特質

麻煩高手解惑

=============================================================================

Although Thaler employs an innovative mode of analysis, his study offers yet

another examination of quite (i)_____ ground-namely, the culture ideology of

Norwegian-American preservationist writers in the early twentieth century.

Blank(i)                     Blank(ii)              Blank(iii)

(A) unfamiliar             (D) find                (G) accurate

(B) well-worked             (E) understand          (H) new

(C) fruitful                (F) reveal              (I) recognizable

因此三個空格毫無頭緒


==============================================================================

Given children’s active fantasy lives, one might think of truthfulness as

(i)_____ virtue in young children, but it turns out that lying is the more

(ii)_____ skill. A child who is going to lie must recognize the truth,

intellectually conceive of an alternate reality, and be able to convincingly

sell that new reality to someone else. Therefore, lying (iii)_____ cognitive

development and social skills in a way that honesty simply does not.

Blank(i)                      Blank(ii)                      Blank(iii)


(A) an instinctive           (D) advanced                    (G) undermines

(B) an acquired              (E) practical                   (H) forgoes

(C) a conscious              (F) mundane                     (I) demands

這題的問題在第一個空格

but it turns out that lying is the more advanced skill.

代表在but前面，lying應該不是進階的技巧

因此答案不應該是 (A)嗎?

推 Rinascimento: 第一題我的想法是：Although 那一句說 are "not"
→ Rinascimento: unconnected 說明了是有connect 但是下一句又說跟
→ Rinascimento: 現在比起來的話，是比較少的，表示到現在為止是很
→ Rinascimento: 多的connect ～所以冒號就開始解釋：孤立已經停止
→ Rinascimento: 被當作一個選項。 言下之意就是不選擇孤立了；反
→ Rinascimento: 之，就是要多交流了！ （用手機打比較不順sorry
