A young lady offers her seat in a (10)_____ bus to an elderly, frail gentleman, and he gives her a (11)_____ look because she has insulted his (12)_____ Mind you, those are just people (13)_____ to be nice; the only problem is that they are (14)_____ on different systems of (15)_____.

选项
A、friendly
B、terrible
C、disgusting
D、hostile
答案
D
解析
本题的考点为对上下文的理解和形容词的词义辨析。结合文章的内容可知这里需要填一个与下文的feel better意思相反的词,所以terrible"极坏的,极糟的"符合文意。friendly"友好的",disgusting"令人讨厌的",hostile"敌对的"都与文意不符。
