【华慧考博】考博英语每日一练(12.25)参考答案
1.C【句意】我突然意识到这个男人正在说谎。
【解析】词义辨析——动词辨析题。effect“产生;达到目的”;poke“刺;捅;戳”;hit“打击;碰撞;使突然意识到”;stir“搅动;激起;惹起”;由题干中“the man was not telling the truth这个男人正在说谎”知“使突然意识到”符合,因此C项正确。
2.B
【句意】这药减轻了他的疼痛,但却没有治好他的疾病。
【解析】动词词义辨析。activate“刺激;使活泼”;alleviate“减轻;缓和”;deteriorate“恶化”;mediate“调解;调停”。由句中关键词“his pain他的疼痛”与“but did not cure his illness但却没有治好他的疾病”的对应知“减轻”更符合语境,由此知B项正确。
