Benjamin Franklin, tactless in his youth, became so diplomatic, so _ at handling people that he was made American Ambassador to France.A.adroitB.shrewdC.considerateD.foxy 正确答案：A解析 从整句话看，全句对Benjamin Franklin持褒奖态度，空白处的词应当和前面的diplomatic构成同义词，起到进一步说明的作用，即在处理人际关系方面“富有策略”。这样，我们就不可能选foxy(“像狐狸似的，狡猾的”)和shrewd(“奸诈的，狡猾的”)这两个带有贬义色彩的词。C项considerate为“体贴的，考虑周到的”与题意不符。只有A项adroit可入选答案，意思为“having or showing ability to use the skills of mind”，即“巧妙的，机巧的”。2.

The Echo House will demonstrate how we can live with highly efficient insulation, solar heating, energy efficient _ and organic gardeningA.applicatorsB.applicationsC.applicantsD.appliances 正确答案：D解析 本题考查对4个词根相同的词的意义的辨认。原句中有几个并列成分：highly efficient insulation，solar heating，energy efficient _ 和organic gardening，根据上下文，这些都是与生存环境有关的词语，因此我们不难排除掉与此无关的选项applicator(涂药器)和applicant(申请人)。另外，原句中的几个并列成分都是具体名词，因此可以推断application(应用，适用)与题意不符，而appliances意为“器具，用具”，如：electric appliances(电器)，恰好符合题意。5. Brunners _ to become the second woman ever to hold Cabinet rank was scuttled by the overwhelmingly male parliament, apparently because of sexual politics.A.betB.bitC.bidD.bat 正确答案：C解析 这组词在拼写上很接近。在记单词的时候应当有意识地对这类词进行总结、归纳。由原句看，空白处的词在句中作主语，即Brunner的_被破坏了。A项bet意为“打赌，赌注”；B项bit意为“一点”；D项bat意为“球拍”；三者显然都不符合句意。所以，C项bid“希望，愿望”是正确的答案。6.
