问题 His premiership, seemingly cast-iron a year ago, is now so vulnerable that even a good day at the office does no more than buy him a few weeks of________from rebels within his own party.
A. controversy
B. reproach
C. respite
D. relief
E. blame
F. deference

选项

答案C,D

解析 逻辑连接词为even,引导让步。句子说,他的总理职位在一年之前是非常稳固的,而现在却岌岌可危,即使是a good day at the office(工作卓有成效的一天),也不过是从他自己党内的反叛者那里换取几个星期的________。转折前的a good day at the office是正面含义,转折后的内容要与之反义对应,就不能填入正面的词;但是也要注意,这里说的是a good day at the office能够换取________,就是说空格部分是a good day al the office的逻辑结果,因此空格也不能填入一个很负面的词。因此最好的选择就是填入一个程度比a good day at the office弱的词,C项respite与D项relief(喘息,休息)符合。
