There has been a ______ lack of communication between the union and the management.[2002]
【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】解析:需填入的词应表示说明工会和管理层之间缺乏交流是令人遗憾的,regrettable表示“令人遗憾的,可惜的”,一般用来描述某件事,故为答案。regretful表示“后悔的,惋惜的,感到遗憾的”,一般用来形容人,如:She was deeply regretful for what had happened.(她对所发生的事情深表惋惜。)regretting和regretted都是分词形式,一般不作形容词。
