The Timber rattlesnake is now on the endangered species list, and is extinct in two eastern states in which it once______.
选项
A、thrived
B、swelled
C、prospered
D、flourished
答案
A
解析
此题测试近义词的辨析。thrive,prosper,flourish均表示“蓬勃发展”。但thrive指“兴旺,繁荣”,用于有生命的事物,指由于条件好而长势好,如:The gardenseems to thrive on the new fertilizer.“那座花园使用新型肥料,花草看起来长得茁壮葱茏。"thrive偶尔也用于无生命的物体,指有生气,通过词义的引申,把无生命看成是有生命的,如:a thriving community“兴旺的社区",thrive可用于褒义也可用于贬义。prosper“繁荣,昌盛”,指人或国家事业蓬勃发展,并获得预期目的,如:prosper inbusiness“生意兴隆”;The country is prospering under a strong government.“该国家在一个坚强的政府领导下繁荣昌盛。"flourish“茂盛,繁荣",用于植物指枝繁叶茂,花蕾多;用于比喻指某方面发展得称心如意,一般多用于褒义。如:China’s scienceand technology will certainly grow and flourish. “中国的科学技术一定会兴旺发达起来。"swell“膨胀,增大,隆起”,如:Wood often swells when wet.“木头浸湿时会膨胀。"His face began to swell out. “他的脸肿起来了。"题句说的是响尾蛇曾经很多,现在灭绝了,是指生物,而不是指植物,不用flourish;也不是指事业,不能用pros—per;swell的意思就更远了,因此要选thrive。题句意:“Timber响尾蛇现在已被列为处于濒危状态的物种,东部的两个州过去很多,现在已经灭绝。"
