问题 They have been living under the most appalling conditions for two years.

选项 A、dreadful
B、bad
C、unpleasant
D、poor

答案A

解析 appalling表示条件之差使人感到吃惊。dreadful有类似的意义。如:My financial situation is dreadful.此句改用appalling也是可以的。Bad,unpleasant和poor都可以跟 condition搭配。因此可以说:They have been living under bad conditions for two years. They have been living under unpleasant conditions for two years. They have been living under poor conditions for two years.注意:appalling conditions蕴涵bad(或unpleasant或poor) conditons,但反向的蕴涵是不成立的。用句通俗的话说,是appalling conditions必定是bad (或unpleasant或poor)conditions,但是,bad(或unpleasant或poor)conditions未必都是 appalling conditions。也就是说,appalling跟bad,unpleasant和poor在意义上存在着明显的差别。注意:如果用bad或poor替换appalling,生成的都是错误的句子。
