问题 The political upheaval caught most people by surprise: despite the________warning of some commentators, it had never seemed that imminent.
A. stern
B. prescient
C. prophetic
D. indifferent
E. apathetic
F. repeated

选项

答案B,C

解析 逻辑连接词是despite,表让步转折。冒号前的句子完整,说政治动荡让大多数人surprise(感到吃惊)。冒号后的句子让步的部分说虽然一些评论员有________的警告,转折的部分说had never seemed that imminent,这里that是so的意思,即似乎从未那么迫在眉睫。就是说虽然有怎样的警告,结果还是surprise。说明这个警告本身不是sunrise的,是可以预料的,所以B项prescient和C项prophetic(预言的)符合。有同学错选A项stern(严厉的)和F项repeated(重复的),这两个选项并不是同义词,这里that imminent的that是指代重复,所以空格要对应imminent含义,“预言的,预知的”最符合。
