题目内容
8.-Jack still can't help being anxious about his job interview.-Lack of self-confidence is his _____,I am afraid.( )
| A. | Achilles's heel | B. | child's play | C. | green fingers | D. | last straw |
分析 Jack仍然不由自主的担心他的工作面试.
恐怕缺乏自信是他最大的弱点.
解答 答案:A.
本题考查谚语的用法,Achilles's heel意为致命伤,最大的弱点;child's play轻而易举的事,green fingers意为园艺能手,可引申为新手,新人;last straw最后的机会,忍无可忍;因为本句的主语为Lack of self-confidence,所以选A最合乎语境.
点评 对于谚语及常用语的表达要注意多积累,多了解一些西方的习俗或者典故之类的,本题稍有些难度.
