D
解析试题分析:本题考查语境下副词词语辨析。本句意思是“这场篮球赛的最后比分是93比94。我们以微弱的劣势输掉了比赛。”四个副词选项含义分别为:nearly“大约,几乎,差不多”;slightly“有一点,略微,脆弱地”;narrowly“勉强地”;light“轻轻地,容易地,不费力地”。这四个副词只有narrowly可以用于比赛中表示由于赛况激烈,比分胶着,一方仅以微弱优势获胜。根据微型语境判断,正确选项应为C项。
考点:考查副词词义辨析
点评:把相似、相近的词语或结构放在一起作为干扰选项,若我们基础知识掌握不牢就难于区分。解答这类题目,关键是理解题干意思以及各选项副词的意思,可以像数学中的代入法一样,依次把各个选项意思放入句子中进行比较,不难选出正确答案。

WHAT happens to a teenage kid when the world he thought he knew suddenly changes? Find out in Little Brother by American author Cory Doctorow. It is a fascinating book for a new generation of sci-fi readers.
Marcus Yallow, 17, from San Francisco is much more comfortable in front of a computer than obeying the rules of society. Smart, fast and wise to the ways of the networked world, he has no trouble outwitting (骗过) his high school's monitoring system. This way he and his friends get to head off to play a popular online game in real life.
While they are playing, a bomb explodes on the Bay Bridge. Marcus stops a military vehicle to get help for his injured friend, but this simple act throws him into a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) secret prison. There he is treated as a possible terrorist. He is eventually let go after four days, but his injured friend disappears.
When he returns, Marcus discovers that there are many "security measures" in place and that now all citizens are treated like potential terrorists. While some consider this government action necessary for public safety, Marcus sees this as a complete destruction of the rights he is supposed to have as a citizen.
He knows that no one will believe his story, which leaves him with only one thing to do: to take down the DHS himself. He helps organize a large network called Xnet to spread the truth, anonymously (匿名地).
The book presents a young man who is irresponsible, but learns about himself, and grows, in the course of the story. As part of this learning and growing he becomes aware of very serious issues about his society.
