问题 People frequently attempt to relieve their workplace frustrations via surreptitious comments around the water-cooler but would be better able to resolve their resentments if they were less (i)________about their problem and initiated a more (ii)________dialogue.
Blank (i)        Blank (ii)
A. vexatious     D. equitable
B. clandestine   E. sincere
C. opportunistic F. open

选项

答案B,F

解析 先看空格(i),逻辑连接词是but,表示前后句义相反。前面说人们通过surreptitious comments(偷偷摸摸的评论)来relieve frustrations(减轻挫败感),but后面说如果less________会resolve resentments(消除怨恨)。空格表示他们的一种行为,那么这里就应当寻找前面提到的他们行为的特点,所以空格对应的是surreptitious,取其同义词即可,B项clandestine(秘密的)符合。再看空格(ii),逻辑连接词是less…more…结构。表示前后两对象特征相反,也就是说空格(ii)与空格(i)相反。空格(ii)表达“不偷偷摸摸”的含义,F项open符合。有同学会选择E选项,表示“真诚的”。sincere的反面是“虚伪的”,而不是“鬼鬼祟祟的,偷偷摸摸的”。water-cooler指的是办公室的闲聊场合。
