题目内容
18.The dictionary is ______:many words have been added to the language since it was published.( )A. | out of control | B. | out of date | C. | out of sight | D. | out of reach |
分析 这本字典过时了,因为从它发行后,很多单词加入到了语言里.
解答 答案B.
out of control失控,out of date过期,out of sight,不在视线内(Out of sight,out of mind.眼不见,心不烦.),out of reach,够不着,拿不到.
根据冒号后面的解释--many words have been added to the language since it was published,since表示自(一个时间点)以来,可知字典已经过时了,很多词都不在字典里.
故答案为B.
点评 本题解答时需注意冒号后面的内容,有解释的意思,通过对解释猜测前文的意思,同时要理解介词短语的含义.
