选项
A、notorious
B、indecent
C、obscure
D、desperate
答案
B
解析
此题属于语义搭配题。indecent意为“不成体统的,不体面的”,根据上下文,上句说死亡是忌讳的话题,因此,谈论死亡会被看作是不成体统的,故选项B) indecent正确。选项A) notorious意为“臭名昭著的,声名狼藉的”,例如:The company is notorious for paying its bill late.选项 C) obscure意为“晦涩的;偏僻的,模糊的”,例如;an obscure style of writing/an obscure island.又如:Official policy has changed,for reasons that remain obscure.选项D) desperate意为“绝望的,拼命的,极度的”,例如:make a desperate attempt(孤注一掷)。
