(6)_____ mention, of course, of the right to vote—but then that has been (7)_____ to men too, though local elections, on an apparently universal franchise, are supposed to be held in October.

选项
A、offence
B、collapse
C、disaster
D、passivism
答案
A
解析
offence冒犯;得罪、collapse崩溃;瓦解、disaster灾难、passivism被动(性);消极态度。本题是一道语意逻辑推导题。本句的大意是:"世界八大工业国家的领导人所发表的有关阿拉伯世界更大程度民主的呼吁减弱了,其原因是担心产生冒犯"。本句已暗示出正确答案:一国对别国的指手画脚通常导致"反感;得罪;冒犯"。由此可以推导出本题的正确答案应该是"offence"。
