问题    Amongst a multiplicity of other topics, we took occasion to talk of the different characters of the several 【C1】______ of Europe; when one of the gentlemen, cocking his hat, and【C2】______ such an air of importance as if he had possessed all the【C3】______ of the English nation in his own person. He【C4】______ that the Dutch were a parcel of avaricious wretches; the French a of【C5】______ sycophants; that the Germans were drunken sots, and【C6】______ gluttons; and the Spaniards proud, haughty, and surly【C7】______ ; but that in bravery, generosity, clemency, and in【C8】______ other virtue, the English excelled all the rest of the【C9】______ .
【C4】

选项 A、convinced
B、proclaimed
C、claimed
D、declared

答案D

解析 答案是D。一看题干便知此空漏掉的词是个谓语动词,但问题是,四个选项词从形式上均是动词的过去式,在语法上没有犯忌之嫌。然而,如果我们把四个词分别填入空中则会发现:A项convinced一词,从语法角度分析,其前缺少个be动词was;B项的proclaimed意为“宣告”、“声明”等,从该句宾语从句引导出的内容来看,不符合该句的语境义;C项的claimed一词,其意也和该句的语境义难以吻合,只有将D项的declared填入才恰如其分。
