问题 Although they are very succinct—that is why they caught on—cliches are wasted words because they are______expressions rather than fresh ones.
选项 A、stale
B、stainless
C、stable
D、spotted
答案A
解析 空白处在一个原因状语从句中，该原因状语说明为什么“陈词滥调是废话(clichesare wasted words)”。在这个原因状语中，rather than的意思是“不是……”，它的前后的成分通常呈反义关系。由于它的后面用了fresh(新鲜)一词，故空白处的词应当选stale，意为“陈腐的，旧的”。stainless意为“无瑕疵的”；stable意为“稳定的”；spotted意为“被指出的，被发现的”。
