问题 Jim, the newly elected director, had to reorganize the entire office; he angrily complained of his ______, who had been so incompetent that everything was left in a mess.

选项 A、successor
B、ancestor
C、predecessor
D、forefather

答案C

解析 近义词辨析。successor意为“继承人,继任者”,如:appoint a successor to a headmaster(任命校长继承人);ancestor意为“祖先,祖宗”,如:My ancestors came from Italian.(我的祖先是意大利人。) predecessor意为“前辈,前任者”,如:My present car is much better than its predecessor.(现在的汽车比原来的那辆好得多。)forefather意为“祖先,前辈”,如:the forefathers of the village(村庄的老祖宗)。由题干可知吉姆是主管,很显然他所抱怨的是他的前任,故选C)。
