【华慧考博】考博英语每日一练(12.19)参考答案
1.C【句意】发言者提出的问题远非普通成年人所能及。
【解析】介词辨析题。past“超过;越过”;on“在……上”;beyond“超出……之外;非……所能及”; through “穿过; 经由”。由句中关键词“The questions that the speaker raised发言者提出的问题”与“the average adult普通成年人”的对应知“非……所能及”符合语境,故C项正确。
2.D
【句意】自从工业主义兴起以来,教育一直朝生产工人方向调整。
【分析】动词词义辨析。harness“给(马等)上挽具;控制;利用”;hatch“孵出;策划;谋划”;motivate“促动;激发”;gear“搭上齿轮;适合;开始工作”,gear towards “朝……调整”。由句中关键词“towards producing workers朝生产工人方向”的对应知可构成“gear towards朝……调整”的D项正确。
