When I was in my early teens, I was taken to a spectacular show
on ice by the mother of a friend. Looked round at the luxury of the【M1】______
rink, my friend’s mother remarked on the "plush" seats we had been
given. I did not know what she meant, and being proud of my【M2】______
vocabulary, I tried to infer its meaning from the context. " Plush" was
clearly intended as a complimentary, a positive evaluation: that much I【M3】______
could tell it from the tone of voice and the context. So I started to use【M4】______
the word. Yes, I replied, they certainly are plush, and so are the ice
rink and the costumes of the skaters, aren’t they? My friend’s mother
was very polite to correct me, but I could tell from her expression that【M5】______
I had not got the word quite right.
Often we can indeed infer from the context what a word roughly
means, and that is in fact the way which we usually acquire both new【M6】______
words and new meanings for familiar words, specially in our own first【M7】______
language. But sometimes we need to ask, as I should have asked for【M8】______
plush, and this is particularly true in the aspect of a foreign language.【M9】______
If you are continually surrounded by speakers of the language you are
learning, you can ask them directly, but often this opportunity does not
exist for the learner of English. So dictionaries have been developed to【M10】______
mend the gap.
【M3】
选项
答案
complimentary一compliment
解析
词性误用。该处冠词a后面应该接名词,complimentary是形容词,意思是“赞美的”,故应改为它的名词形式compliment,意思是“赞美”。
