參考答案&解析:
1、B A、B、C三項都有控告、歸咎的意思,但是搭配各不相同。accuse sb. of …控告某人犯有……;warn sb. of …警告、告戒某人有……;deprive sb. of sth.剝奪某人某事;charge sb. with murder (指控某人犯有殺人罪) 。
2、D acquired(由技術、能力、努力或行為)獲得,得到;achieve, vt. 取得(勝利、成功等),實現(xiàn)(目標、目的等);attain, vt. 達到(目的等),取得(成就等);require, vt. 要求,與其他三個詞匯意義相差較遠。
3、A actual, real, genuine是同義詞, 有時可以互換,如:an actual (or real) event in history,(歷史上的真實事件),real (or genuine) banknotes(真鈔票),其反義詞是false(假的);original(原來的),其反義詞是duplicate(復制的)。從不同的角度看,似乎任何一個選擇都說得過去,但按照題意選A最佳,因為題中強調的不是鋼琴的真假,而是指作曲家“實際使用過的”。
4、C adjust (=arrange, put in order or agreement;make suitable or convenient for use) 強調,調節(jié),使適應;The body adjusts itself to change of temperature. (身體能自行調節(jié)以適應溫度的變化。) My eyes have not been adjusted to dark yet. (我的眼睛還沒有適應黑暗。) 本句中adjust是不及物動詞,它還可以作及物動詞用,I must adjust my watch. It's slow. (我必須調一下我的表。它走得慢了。)
5、B achievement 取得,達到,成就;fulfilment 履行,實行;establishment 建立,建設;accomplishment (順利)完成。
