问题
By saying "the letter ’b’ is silent in pronunciation", the author wants to indicate that ______
The word "putdown" (Line 1, Paragraph 3) most probably means ______
选项
A、a pun which can be interpreted in both positive and negative ways.
B、a tone-twisting joke which intends to make the hearer puzzled.
C、a response by understanding something deliberately in another way.
D、an indirect way of saying something to make someone humiliated.
答案
D
解析
为语意理解题。"putdown"原意为"something you say that is intended to make someone feel stupid or unimportant"。因此D为正确答案。文中第一个例子可以说明A,C正确,但马克.吐温的名言不能证明A和C是对的,结合所举的两例可以推断出"putdown"明显带有嘲讽之意。
