单选题 The discrepancy in the company accounts is so ______ that no auditor could have failed to notice it.
A. spontaneous B. conspicuous C. notorious D. superfluous

【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】[解析] 本题意为“该公司的账目差异如此明显,没有哪个审计员会看不出这一点的”。 conspicuous的意思是“显著的”,如:She's always conspicuous because of her bright clothes and queer hair style.因为她衣着鲜艳,发型古怪,所以总是惹人注目。其他三项spontaneous“自发的,自然产生的”;notorious“声名狼藉的”;superfluous“过剩 的”都与句意不符。
