When the first Europeans arrived in Australia, they found the continent already______by other people.
选项
A、abandoned
B、populated
C、migrated
D、explored
答案
B
解析
(1)句子结构。
本句是一个由when引导的时间状语从句和主句构成的主从复合句。主句的结构为主动宾补(SVOC),主语是they,即the first Europeans,谓语动词为found,宾语为the continent,后面的already______by other people为宾语补足语。
(2)选项词义。
A.abandon vt.抛弃离弃;放弃;放纵
B.populate vt.居住于……中;构成……的人口
C.migrate vt.使移居
D.explore vt.探索;探测;探险
本句大意为“第一批欧洲人抵达澳洲时,他们发现这个大陆已经有人居住”。从四个选项来看,只有populated符合题意,因此选项B为正确答案。
