问题     We enjoy fine food from the first taste to the last. Similarly, good writing is something we(1)______ with pleasure. And good writers, good cooks, do not(2)______ appear full-blown. Quite the contrary, just as the cook has to undergo an (3)______ training, mastering the skills of his(4)______, the writer must sit at his desk and devote long hours to(5)______ a style in his writing, whatever its purpose— schoolwork, matters of business, or(6)______ social communication. With patience and practice can you turn your creative desire into(7)______writing. You may be sure that the more painstaking the effort, the more(8)______the writing, and the more rewarding.
    There are still some(9)______places in the world where you might find a public scribe to do your business or social writing for you, for a(10)______. There are a few managers who are lucky enough to have the service of that rate kind of secretary who can(11)______ all sorts of letter writing with(12)______a quick note to work from. But for most of us,(13)______there is any writing to be done, we have to do it ourselves.
    We have to write school papers, business papers or home papers. We are constantly called(14)______ to put words to paper. It would be difficult to count the number of such words, messages, letters, and reports(15)______ the mails or delivered(16)______, but the daily figure must be(17)______. What is more, every one who writes expects, or(18)______ hopes. We want whatever we write to be read, from first word to last, not just(19)______ some "letters-to-be-read" file or a wastepaper basket. This is the(20)______we bend our efforts toward learning and practicing the skill of interesting, effective writing.

选项 A、innumerable
B、endless
C、unlimited
D、enormous
答案D
解析 形容词辨析题。空格里需要填人的形容词修饰figure(数字)，强调的是数字之大。enormous意为“巨大的，庞大的”，符合句意，故选[D]。[A]innumerable表示“不计其数的”，[C]unlimited表示“无限的；数或量极大的”，这两个都是用来形容数量，而不是数字，因此排除；[B]endless意为“无止境的”，不符合文意，可以排除。
