Which of the following countries has enjoyed the fastest economic growth in history?
The word "meager" in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to" ______ ".
选项
A、modest
B、poor
C、meaningless
D、plentiful
答案
B
解析
词汇题。本题考查根据上下文推测词义的能力。该词出现在第二段“In nations where workers can produce a large quantity of good sand services per unit of time,most people enjoy a high standard of living;in nations where workers are less productive,most People must endure a more meager existence.”。这里对两类国家进行了一下对比,首先在那些单位时间内能生产出大量的产品和服务,即生产力水平较高的国家,大多数人的生活水平都较高;接着与之相对应,在那些生产力水平较低的国家,人们的生活水平肯定较低,因此可推出meager一词肯定跟穷困的意思接近,故答案只能为poor。其他选项modest谦虚的,适度的;meaningless毫无意义的;plentiful许多的,丰富的。
