题目内容
16.Britain is a"second-rate power"which has been for a century-yet London remains the most influential city in the world.( )A. | in decline | B. | in effect | C. | on the move | D. | on the rise |
分析 一个世纪以来,英国的国际影响力有所下降,然而伦敦仍旧是世界上有非常具有影响力的一个城市.
解答 答案:A
in decline 在衰退中;in effect 实际上;on the move 在活动中;on the rise 在上涨.联系前后语境,根据yet London remains the most influential city in the world 但是,伦敦的在世界上的影响力一直存在,由yet这个重要词汇可知,前后句应该表一个转折关系.in deline (在衰退中)符合语境,故选A
点评 本题考查固定介词短语的语义辨析,考生应熟知所给词汇的语义,再结合句意,从而选择出正确答案.
