题目内容

17．Today it's normal for married women to go out to work，but it was ____ in the past．（　　）

	A．	common		B．	more common
	C．	less common		D．	the most common

分析现在已婚女性出去工作是平常的事情，但是在过去这是不普遍的．

解答答案：C 根据句子的关键词today和past可知这是现在和过去两者之间的比较，再联系前后语境，意在说明过去的女性出去工作不如现在的女性出去工作普遍．所以应用common的否定意义的比较级形式为less common．故选C．

点评此题考查形容词比较级的用法．做题时要抓住句中的关键词并联系前后句的语境准确把握句意，在此基础上确定是用比较级还是最高级，是倾向于否定还是肯定；另外要注意一些形容词比较级和最高级的特殊变换形式，如本题中出现的less common．
