【华慧考博】考博英语每日一练（11.1）参考答案
1.A【句意】一些人谨慎地查看了这些发现，然后指出被动吸烟和癌症之间的因果关系仍需要去被证明。
【解析】语法结构—不定式to的被动语态。由句子动词“viewed”为一般过去式知使用现在完成时态被动语态的B项与主动语态的C项都不正确；再由动词remain“依然”后接不定式表示有事待做或待发生可知A项正确。
2.A
【句意】相比基于成人说理和看法的安慰努力，小孩可能从寓言中得到更好的安慰。
【解析】名词辨析题。solace“安慰；慰藉；安慰之物”；solitude“孤独；隐居；荒僻的地方”，mediocrity“平庸之才；平常”；ovation“热烈欢迎；大喝彩”。由“an effort to comfort him安慰他所做的努力”的对应可知“安慰”符合，由此知A项正确。
