In his recent speech, the chancellor warned against
complacency
to the strength of recovery at a time when Britain faced a "dangerous cocktail" of instability and threats.
选项
A、subordination
B、subjection
C、salvation
D、satisfaction
答案
D
解析
(1)句子结构。
该句结构为In his recent speech,the chancellor(主语)warned against complacency to the strength of recovery(谓语)at a time(时间状语)when Britain faced a“dangerous cocktail”of instability and threats(when引导的从句,作time的定语)。
(2)选项词义。
A.subordination n.从属;附属;主从关系
B.subjection n.隶属;服从;征服
C.salvation n.得救;(基督教)救恩;救助
D.satisfaction n.满足;欣慰;令人满意(或欣慰)的事
本句中dangerous cocktail是一个比喻,比喻经济面临多重风险或是国家遭受金融危机。句子大意为“财政大臣在最近的讲话中警告道:现在英国经济不稳定,危机四伏,切勿认为国家经济复苏强劲而自得自满”。原题中的complacency意为“自满”“自鸣得意”,与选项中的satisfaction词义最为接近,因此选项D正确。
