语法与词汇

Financial consultants acknowledge that the value of common stock is inherently changeable.

【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】

(1) 句子结构。
本题句子结构为主动宾(SVO),主语为Financial consultants,谓语为 acknowledge, that引导一个宾语从句。
(2)选项词义。 
A. relatively adv.关系上地;相对地;比较地
B. intrinsically adv.从本质上(讲)
C. consequently adv.所以,因此;合乎逻辑的推论是
D. accordingly adv.因此,于是;依据;相应地
句子大意为“ 财务顾问承认普通股的价值本质上是可变的” 。题干中inherently意思是 “ 固有地、本质的” ,与选项中的intrinsically词义最为接近,因此选项B 正确。
[知识拓展]词汇拓展:intrinsically与 inherently。
①intrinsically adv. belonging to a thing by its very nature
e.g. There is nothing intrinsically wrong with the idea. (=It is good in itself but there may be outside circumstances which mean it is not suitable.)
这种想法本身并没有错。
②inherently adv. that is a basic or permanent part of sb./sth. and that cannot be remove belonging to or part of the real nature
e.g. Such a lax and haphazard organization was inherently corrupt. 
这样一个松散、随意凑合的机构从骨子里就是腐败的。
