选项
A、constructive
B、damaging
C、reinforcing
D、retorting
答案
B
解析
考查形容词辨析。空格处填入形容词,构成“as+adj.+as”的同级比较结构。因此,该形容词说明的是上文“在圣瓦伦丁节忘记给妻子或恋人送花”和下文“忘记生日或结婚纪念日”共同的特点。constructive“建设性的,积极的”;damaging“造成破坏的,有害的”;reinforcing是动词reinforce“加强,充实;加固”的现在分词,retorting是动词retort“反驳,回嘴”的现在分词,一般都不作形容词用。根据上下文语境可知,该特点是负面的,消极的,故B.damaging正确。
