【华慧考博】考博英语每日一练(11.12)参考答案
1.A【句意】他仅是打算提出自己的观点,并不想引发一场争论。
【解析】副词词义辨析。四个选项的意思分别是:merely“仅仅”;sincerely“真诚地;诚恳地”;actually“实际上;事实上”;definitely“清楚地,当然;明确地,肯定地”。由句中关键词“not to start an argument并不想引发一场争论”可知“仅仅”符合句意,故A项正确。
2.A
【句意】尽管这是他第一次当会议主席;但是他却用高超的技能主持了会议。
【解析】固定搭配。由固定搭配“preside over the meeting主持会议”知A项正确。administered(其为administer的过去式)“管理;执行;给予”;mastered(其为master的过去式)“控制;精通;征服”;executed(其为execute的过去式)“实行;执行;处死”。
