【C9】
选项
A、related
B、devoted
C、opposed
D、accustomed
答案
C
解析
上下文语义题。此处as前面讲的是to study and practice music“学习和练习音乐”,而空格后是讲playing a Mozart CD or…“播放一张莫扎特CD或者……”。前后两者对音乐的关注度形成明显的对照,与as和to构成固定搭配的是opposed(C项),as opposed to连接两个对比信息,表示“对照;而不是”,符合句意。其他三个选项也能和to搭配使用,常见表达有be related to“与……相关的”、be devoted to“专心于,致力于”和be accustomed to“习惯于”,但这三项都不能与as构成搭配,使前后语义形成对照。
