【华慧考博】考博英语每日一练(10.30)参考答案
1.C【句意】他设法通过将自己的头发梳到一边来遮掩自己秃顶的地方。
【解析】形容词词义辨析题。barren“贫瘠的;不生育的;沉闷无趣的”;bare“空的;赤裸的,无遮蔽的”;bald“秃顶的;光秃的;单调的;无装饰的”;bleak“阴冷的;荒凉的;无遮蔽的;黯淡的;冷酷的;单调的”。由空格后“sweeping his hair over to one side将自己的头发梳到一边”的对应知“秃顶的”符合语境,故C项正确。
2.D
【句意】布莱克先生那个挥霍的儿子在几年的大花销中挥霍掉了他的大笔遗产。
【解析】动词词义辨析题。inherit“继承;遗传而得”;receive“收到;接待;接纳”;accumulate“积攒”;dissipate“浪费;挥霍”。由空格后“heavy spending大花销”,以及宾语“his large inheritance 他的大笔遗产”对应知“挥霍”符合搭配,故D项正确。
