答案解析:
1. 答案是: C
解析: 这句话的意思是"他看着招牌广告,心想不知自己是否有资格去应聘"。eligible的意思是"有资格做……,符合做……的条件",如:Anyone above the age of l8 is eligible to vote.(18岁以上的人都可以参加选举。)Not everyresident here is eligible for the medical insurance provided by the community.(并非每一个本地的居民都有资格享受社区提供的医疗保险。)
2.答案是: B
解析: vigorous:精力充沛的,有活力的,常用于人,如:a vigorous young man,也可作"强有力的,强劲的,用力的"解,如:vigorous opponent强劲的对手,vigorous exercises运动量大的锻炼。hot-tempered是"脾气大的,性子烈的"意思,patient作形容词则是"耐心的"意思。
3.答案是: A
解析: 本句的意思是"并非所有的成员国都遵循他们先前达成一致的原则。"abide by是个短语,意为"服从,遵守",adhere to也是一个固定的短语,和stick to同义。abide by常见的搭配还有abide by the rule/the law/decision,如:The players all abided by the referee's decision although it was not really fair.其余的三个选项apply(应用),abandon (抛弃),adopt(采纳)均可以和principle搭配,但词义和abide by不符。
4.答案是: C
解析: bias这个名词的意思是"偏袒,偏见",without bias则是"公平地,公正地"的意思。fairly是形容词fair的副词形式,在这里是"公平地"的意思。当然,fairly也可以作"相当,还"解,表示程度,如:Your English is fairly good.(你的英语还不错。)
5.答案是: B
解析: terminate这个动词意为"结束",可作及物或不及物动词用,如:We have decided to terminate our contract with your company.(我们已决定终止与贵公司的合同。)The forest terminates in a forest.(路的尽头是树林。) put an end to是个动词短语,如:Finally they put an end to the long-standing disputes.(最后他们终于结束了长期的争端。) resume(中断后重又开始),suspend(暂时中断),re-schedule(重新制定时间表)这三个动词都可以和construction搭配,但词义和terminate不相近。
