參考答案&解析:
1、C able有才能的,有能力的,指人的才智,而且是受過(guò)實(shí)際鍛煉的才干。Capable“有才能的,能勝任的”(有褒、貶二義),如:He is capable of anything.(他什么事都干得出來(lái)。)此句含有明顯得貶義。此外,作表語(yǔ)時(shí),able接不定式,capable接of. capable還有一意思是“有可能 的”,例如:The car is capable of being repaired .(這輛汽車(chē)是有可能修好的。)用于此義時(shí),be capable of 后常接被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)動(dòng)名詞或有動(dòng)作意義的名詞:The situation is capable of improvement .possible 強(qiáng)調(diào)客觀可能性,“可能的”程度比probable"大概的,很可能的低一些。
2、B worthwhile值花時(shí)間(或精力)干的:1)The visit to Paris was worthwhile .2)He thinks teaching foreign languages is worthwhile.3)She has a very worthwhile job.4)I think it worthwhile to work on my stamp collection.
Worthy (of)配得上,值得:1)He is worthy of being praised.(=He is worthy to be praised.)2)He is a worthy winner.3)She is not worthy to talk to man like you.(她配不上與你這樣一位男士談話)。
3、B soundly sleep soundly熟睡。也可以說(shuō)sleep heavily.
4、D pick up學(xué)到,習(xí)得。
5、C. bound be bound to sth.受...的約束:I was bound to my promise.(我受我的諾言約束)[注意]be bound to do sth.1)一定會(huì):The plan is bound to win.(這項(xiàng)計(jì)劃一定會(huì)成功。)2)有責(zé)任(義務(wù)):You are bound to obey the laws.(你有責(zé)任遵守法紀(jì))。
本題譯文:我支持你的決定,但是我得說(shuō)明,我不打算受它約束。
