选项
A、quality
B、character
C、personality
D、distinctiveness
答案
B
解析
考查名词辨析。所填词表达阅读任务本身在…方面的改变,是对阅读这一任务的修饰或指代,因此排除quality"(人的)品德,品性;(事物的)品质,质量",不能用来修饰默读的品质,同时排除personality"(人的)个性,人格,人物",用来指代人而不能指代物;而distinctiveness"(品质性格或外表)与众不同",强调的是与其他事物的差别,本题并不是强调默读与别的事物的差别。因此,只有character"(事物的)特性,特质,(人或物)特点,特征",正好可以用来指默读的特性。
