问题 The prosecutor belied his hard-boiled reputation by submitting (i)________queries to the witness and accepting in turn (ii)________responses.
Blank (i)      Blank (ii)
A. innocuous   D. evasive
B. quizzical   E. elaborate
C. impertinent F. informative

选项

答案A,D

解析 同义重复题。逻辑连接词是belie,表示前后转折。前面说检察官辜负了他辣手神探的名声,后面说他对证人提出怎样的质询和接受怎样的反应。hard-boiled reputation与queries to the witness以及________responses反义对应。显然对证人的质询没有到位才辜负了名声,因此空格(i)选A项innocuous(无关痛痒的)。空格(ii)显然也应该是负评价,排除E、F项D项evasive(不直接的,推脱的)符合。很多同学空格(i)选择了impertinent(无礼的)。主语是prosecutor,他的特点是hard-boiled(having a tough detective as the main character),作为这样一个神探,他的问询怎样才辜负了神探的盛名?显然,无关痛痒的、无害的问询(innocuous:not likely to bother or offend anyone)比无礼的问询(impertinent)要更合适。
