问题 The slow pace of job creation was without precedent for the period of recovery from a recession, but the conditions that conspired to cause the recession were also (i)________.

Blank (i)      Blank (ii)                                  Blank (iii)
A. problematic D. were suitable only for certain locations G. source for
B. profitable  E. inspired a variety of new technologies   H. adjunct to
C. versatile   F. required a good deal of upkeep           I. return on

选项

答案B,D,G

解析 先看空格(i),逻辑连接词是also。前面说经济恢复期间创造新工作的速度之慢without precedent(前所未有),后面说共同引起经济萧条的条件也是________的。显然这里空格(i)与前面的without precedent同义重复,选择“前所未有”的含义即可,选B项atypical(异常的)。第二句说股票市场暴跌,并且之前狂热的商业投资锐减。紧接着一系列丑闻________公众信任。空格(ii)指代scandals对public trust发出的动作,显然是负向动作,只有D项weakened(削弱)符合。再看空格(iii),逻辑连接词是these,表示指代重复,前后语义相同。these powerful________to growth中these指代前面的“股市暴跌、投资锐减、丑闻不断”,空格(iii)表达这些负面信息对复苏发出的动作,明显是负向作用,选项中符合预期的只有G项counterforces(反作用力)。
