【答案】D
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】考查冠词的用法。句意:——安妮特一直在抱怨交通使她晚上睡不着。——是的,住宅区附近的这条路上交通很拥挤。上句中的keeping her awake at night是现在分词作后置定语,修饰前面的名词traffic,所以是“特指”让他不能入睡的交通,用定冠词the;下句中heavy traffic的意思是“拥挤的交通”,其中traffic是不可数名词,前面不用冠词。故选D。
2. --- I don't feel I can accept her words.
---But what she said was fair ________.
A. content B. comment C. contact D. concern
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意:——我觉得我不能接受她的话。——但是她的评论是客观公平的。A. content内容;B. comment评论;C. contact联系;D. concern关心。由“I don't feel I can accept her words.”可知,此句中想表达她的评论是公平的。故选B项。
