Although they are very succinct—that is why they caught on—cliches are wasted words because they are______expressions rather than fresh ones.
选项
A、stale
B、stainless
C、stable
D、spotted
答案
A
解析
空白处在一个原因状语从句中,该原因状语说明为什么“陈词滥调是废话(clichesare wasted words)”。在这个原因状语中,rather than的意思是“不是……”,它的前后的成分通常呈反义关系。由于它的后面用了fresh(新鲜)一词,故空白处的词应当选stale,意为“陈腐的,旧的”。stainless意为“无瑕疵的”;stable意为“稳定的”;spotted意为“被指出的,被发现的”。
