问题 Jim, the newly elected director, had to reorganize the entire office; he angrily complained of his ______, who had been so incompetent that everything was left in a mess.
选项 A、successor
B、ancestor
C、predecessor
D、forefather
答案 C
解析 近义词辨析。successor意为“继承人，继任者”，如：appoint a successor to a headmaster(任命校长继承人)；ancestor意为“祖先，祖宗”，如：My ancestors came from Italian．(我的祖先是意大利人。) predecessor意为“前辈，前任者”，如：My present car is much better than its predecessor．(现在的汽车比原来的那辆好得多。)forefather意为“祖先，前辈”，如：the forefathers of the village(村庄的老祖宗)。由题干可知吉姆是主管，很显然他所抱怨的是他的前任，故选C)。
