1 For some obscure reason, the simple game is becoming very popular.

A:A unclear

B:B obvious

C:C major

D: D minor

本題正確答案為:A

本題解析：1 A obscure 不清楚的、晦澀的，在四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中和 unclear 同義，obvious明顯的，恰好是obscure 的反義詞；major 和 minor 分別為"主要的"和"次要的"意思。

2 The sea turtle's natural habitat has been considerably reduced.

A:A greatly

B:B suddenly

C:C generally

D:  D slightly

本題正確答案為:A

本題解析:2 A considerably 意為"相當(dāng)大地、在很大程度上"，是副詞，修飾動(dòng)詞，故用 greatly 替 換。又如: His English has been considerably improved. 他的英語大有起色。slightly 為它的反義詞。

9 A young man is being hailed a hero tonight after rescuing two children.

A:A reported

B:B proved

C:C praised

D:D caught

本題正確答案為:C

本題解析:9 C hail 這個(gè)動(dòng)詞有"熱情贊揚(yáng)、歡呼認(rèn)可"等意思，如: They hailed the young pianist for his marvelous performance. 他們對(duì)那位年輕鋼琴家的出色演奏大家贊揚(yáng)。The bandits hailed him their leader. 土匪們擁他為王。注意本句中的謂語動(dòng)詞The young man is being hailed. . . 是被動(dòng)式，現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)。

本題正確答案為:D

本題解析:10 D scared 是"害怕"的意思，很常用，如: The kids were all scared by his fierce look. 孩子們被他的一臉兇相嚇壞了。不過在本句里，scared 并非"懼怕"的意思，而更接近于"擔(dān)心"的意思，故和 afraid 相當(dāng)。
