Section 2
1. The aroma of the freshly baked bread was so ------ that we were tempted to buy three loaves.
A. enticing
B. unruly
C. convenient
D. fabricated
E. generic
解析:
so/such A that/as to B 的结构中A与B为同义关系或感情态度一致,所以从tempted“(被)吸引,诱惑”,可看出空格为对aroma的正向评价,因此答案为A选项 enticing “吸引人的”。
词汇扩充:
吸引,使…着迷:allure, appeal, spellbind, captivate, enchant, bewilder, entrance, enthrall
2. Muddy Waters ------ a generation of musical ------: they imitated his innovative playing style and eventually solidified his reputation as a blues pioneer.
A. emulated .. followers
B. chastised .. contenders
C. resisted .. paragons
D. fostered .. critics
E. inspired .. disciples
解析:
首先要了解冒号后的they指代的是第二空的复数名词,his指的是Muddy Waters这个人,所以从 imitated “模仿” 可看出第二空可以在followers“追随者” 和 disciples “信徒” 中选择,再从最后的pioneer“先锋” 可看出第一空是一个起 “促进,鼓励,支持”作用的动词,可在fostered“促进”和inspire“鼓励”中选择。所以最后选择E选项。
词汇扩充:
祖先,先锋,先驱:ancestor, antecedent, forerunner, forebear, harbinger, precursor, predecessor, progenitor, vanguard, avant-garde
