问题 In his recent speech, the chancellor warned against complacency to the strength of recovery at a time when Britain faced a "dangerous cocktail" of instability and threats.

选项 A、subordination
B、subjection
C、salvation
D、satisfaction

答案D

解析    (1)句子结构。
   该句结构为In his recent speech,the chancellor(主语)warned against complacency to the strength of recovery(谓语)at a time(时间状语)when Britain faced a“dangerous cocktail”of instability and threats(when引导的从句,作time的定语)。
   (2)选项词义。
   A.subordination n.从属;附属;主从关系
   B.subjection n.隶属;服从;征服
   C.salvation n.得救;(基督教)救恩;救助
   D.satisfaction n.满足;欣慰;令人满意(或欣慰)的事
   本句中dangerous cocktail是一个比喻,比喻经济面临多重风险或是国家遭受金融危机。句子大意为“财政大臣在最近的讲话中警告道:现在英国经济不稳定,危机四伏,切勿认为国家经济复苏强劲而自得自满”。原题中的complacency意为“自满”“自鸣得意”,与选项中的satisfaction词义最为接近,因此选项D正确。
