答案详解
1.[A]【解析】非限制性定语从句。选择A项的原因是:progress往往后续in something,而该题把something置于句首,用in which引出定语从句。其他选项都不正确。因此,A项为正确答案。句意:医学科学也许是所有科学中最重要的一门科学,最近已取得了飞速的进展。
2.[A]【解析】动词近义词词义辨析。四个词都含有“转变”的意义,但是只有divert表示“使转向”;而convert表示“变换”;alter表示“改变”;alternate表示“交替”。因此,A项为正确答案。句意:由于前边军队阅兵,所有的车辆都得在此转路行驶。
3.[D]【解析】固定搭配。at stake表示“在危险中”;danger尽管也有“危险”之意,但必须与in搭配,即in danger; stroke和steak只是从词形上起干扰作用,意思完全不同;stroke意为“敲、击”;steak表示“肉片”。因此,D项为正确答案。句意:他感到十分忧虑,就像他自己的个人前途处于危险中一样。
4.[D]【解析】动词词义辨析。complement意为“与……相结合,相辅相成”。而contaminate意为“污染”;compliment意为“赞美”;contemplate意为“沉思”。因此,D项为正确答案。句意:电影导演经常运用音乐以配合屏幕上的动作。
5.[B]【解析】动词近义词词义辨析。swollen表示“肿胀的”,符合该题题意;inflated表示“(通货)膨胀的”;expanded表示“扩张的”;stout表示“粗壮的”。因此,B项为正确答案。句意:玛丽的脚又扭了,并且肿胀得很厉害,但她还是坚持要穿高跟鞋。
