Sixteen-year-old Maria was waiting in line at the airport in Santo Domingo. She was leaving her native country to join her sister in the United States. She spoke English very well. Though she was very happy she could go abroad, she was feeling sad at leaving her family and fiends. As she was thinking all about this, she suddenly heard the airline employee asking her to pick up her luggage and put it on the scales(称). Maria pulled and pulled. The bag was too heavy and she just couldn’t lift it up. The man behind her got very impatient. He, too, was waiting to check in his luggage.
“What’s wrong with this girl?” He said, “Why doesn’t she hurry up?” He moved forward and placed his bag on the counter, hoping to check in fist. He was in a hurry to get a good seat.
Maria was very angry, but she was very polite. And in her best English she said, “Why are you so upset? There are enough seats for everyone on the plane. If you are in such a hurry, why can’t you give me a hand with my luggage?”
The man was surprised to hear Maria speak English. He quickly picked up her luggage and stepped back. Everyone was looking at him with disapproval. (224 words)
选项
4、“Everyone was looking at him with disapproval.” This sentence means that the people around felt _______.
A. worried about Maria
B. worried about the man
C. sorry for Maria’s manners
D. sorry for the man’s manners
答案
D
解析
这是一道语义题,虽然这道题不象以往的语义题是对某个单词或短语判断词意,但这里关键是要理解disapproval这个单词,我们可以通过构词法来判断这个单词的词意,这个单词首先我们很容易看到否定前缀dis,然后我们找到这个单词的词干approve,最后我们看到这个单词的后缀是名词形式,我们可以判断这个单词的词意是“不赞成,不满意”。我们再看故事情节,当那位男士听到玛丽亚用流利的英语对他的行为批评后,他才想起玛丽亚的行李并往后退了一步,根据常识,我们知道在西方很重视女士优先,且男士应具有绅士风度,因此大家对他的行为肯定表现出不满,所以我们确定选择答案D。
