问题 He was such a______merchant that he always made a substantial profit in each transaction.

选项 A、shrewd
B、shrew
C、shriek
D、shred

答案A

解析 形近辨析。四个单词在形式上相近,但词性和意思却截然不同。shrewd形容“(人、判断等)精明的,伶俐的,敏锐的”,如:a shrewd lawyer精明的律师。shrew是名词,意为“泼妇,悍妇”,指脾气坏而好骂人的女子;shriek是动词,表示“(因痛、害怕而)尖声叫喊,尖叫”,如:shriek with laughter尖声大笑;shred为名词,常用作复数,表示“碎片,细条,少量”,如:shreds of paper碎纸片。
