【答案解析】考查连词和上下文逻辑。由上下文句意逻辑来看,it will give him some trouble(这会给他带来麻烦)显然是“不懂(印度人摇头并非说‘不’)”即don’t know this的结果,所以应填入一个表示否定假设的连词,选项中只有or可表示“否则”(相当于or else),故是本题答案。其余两项中,and表示并列关系,也可表示因果关系,but表示转折关系,都不符合上下文逻辑。
单选题
A. wanted
B. told
C. showed
【正确答案】
B
【答案解析】考查动词辨义。由后文中repeated his order(重复了他的命令)一处可知,这位外国官员一开始应当是明确“告诉”或者“吩咐”印度司机他要去办公室的,因此选[B]项。其余两个动词都不符合这一逻辑:want指“想要”,show指“示意,展示,表明”。
