问题 The ruling of America’s Supreme Court
The word "Pyrrhic"(Para. 5) can be substituted by

选项 A、undeserving,
B、unacceptable.
C、pointless.
D、unreasonable.

答案A

解析本题问第五段首句中的"Pyrrhic"能够被哪个词代替。猜测词义最重要的是要联系上下文。．本词出现在第五段首句。第四段谈到这个裁决对科技公司不利的影响，随后用转折词"but"开始第五段，讨论的对象也变成"copyright holder"，可见这里的逻辑应该是：这个裁决虽然对科技公司不利，但对copyright holder也不一定那么有利。再看下面第二句谈到互联网和文件共享技术本身就使用户更有能力盗版，可见这个裁决并不能消灭盗版。而打这个官司毫无疑问让copyright holder付出了不少代价，故可以说copyright holder的这次胜利得不偿失。因此"不值得的"正确。实际上"Pyrrhic victory"是个习语，其意为因代价惨重而得不偿失的胜利。不可接受的、无意义的、不合理的：这三项均仅是认为这次胜利不好，又没有说清这次胜利的本质，相比来说显得空洞肤浅。解题时要注意内容空泛的选项不太可能是正确答案。
