His premiership, seemingly cast-iron year ago, is now so vulnerable that even a good day at the office does no more than buy him a few weeks of _____ from rebels within his own party.

Breproach

來源:GRE考古題


解題方式:

so vulnerable that,這個so.. that 表示因果關係,所以邏輯同向,前面vulnerable,that後面勢必要vulnerable,然後看到even good,在強調good day 依舊vulnerable,所以even a good day at the office does no more than buy him a few weeks of _____ from rebels within his own party.當中 good (+),rebels(-),整體表現是vulnerable(-),所以空格只能是(+)來維持句子邏輯,因此選則(C),(D),(F),但是(F)沒有同義詞,因此只有(C),(D)可選擇

 

單字: 

premiership (n) 首相職位,高官肥貓職缺

respite (v) 暫緩

deference (n) 敬意,尊敬

reproach (v) 責備

no more than 只不過,等於only

翻譯:

在他的行政任期中,以前似乎是鐵血硬漢的,現在卻如此軟趴趴的以至於就算是好日子也只不過是給他一點來自同黨反對派的喘息空間罷了

 

希望能夠幫上忙,祝大家有個美好的一天!!!!
