【C1】
选项
A、faint
B、meek
C、mild
D、weak
答案
A
解析
词义辨析题。前文提到竞选美国总统是一件极耗精力(exceptionally arduous)的事情,因此可以判断空缺单词所在的词组______hearted应该是与之相反的意思。[A]faint意为“衰弱的,虚弱的,模糊的”,固定用法如faint of heart;[B]meek意为“温顺的”,用法如a meek child;[C]mild意为“温和的”,用法如has a mild disposition;[D]weak意为“无力的,疲软的”,用法如a weak stomach,history is my weakest subject。由此判断,正确答案为[A],结合上下文,本句意思为竞选美国总统极耗精力,非胆怯之人能够担当。
