請從以下四個選項里選出最符合題意的一個選項：
I stared into the darkness and wondered if he was as aware of my presence as ________A. I was of hisB. I was of himC. I did of himD. I did of his
參考答案：A. I was of his
解析：這一題的考點在as...as的成分替代性表達。通常，as...as表達的意思是“像…一樣”，即You use the structure as...as when you are comparing things. 不過，由于比較的對象所處的成分不一致，第二個as本身就有指代的作用，因此，并不是兩個比較的成分都要完全表達出來。在這一題里，as aware of my presence是表語，因此，as I was aware of his presence也是作表語。不過，出于簡潔的要求，通常不會這么寫，而是省略為as I was (aware) of his (presence)。當然，最后的his并不是所有格，而是物主代詞。
請從以下五個選項里找出最符合題意的一個選項：
The media seldom gives those who seek careers in the public eye any ____ of the life-changing effects of the overwhelming ___ that often accompanies fame.A. intimation... adulationB. rhetoric...acmeC. euphemism...aplombD. mote...abandonE. stasis...euthanasia
參考答案：A. intimation... adulation
解析：這里的好幾個詞要謂是難度超過了專業(yè)八級，達到了SAT和GRE的級別了。先從這句話的語義來看，就是想成為“公眾人物”(who seek careers in the eye of the public)的人是幾乎不可能從媒體那里得到伴隨名氣而來的一個東西。那個東西是什么呢?同時，公眾人物與媒體的關系是什么呢?從四個選項來看，adulation 的意思是“阿諛”、“奉承;諂媚;恭維”，即Adulation is uncritical admiration and praise of someone or something. 例如：The book was received with adulation by critics. /這本書受到了評論人士的吹捧。Acme的意思是“最高點;頂點;頂峰時刻;頂峰階段”,即The acme of something is its highest point of achievement or excellence.例如：His work is considered the acme of cinematic art./他的作品被認為是電影藝術的巔峰之作。Aplomp的意思“沉著;鎮(zhèn)定;從容不迫;泰然自若” ，即If you do something with aplomb, you do it with confidence in a relaxed way. 例如：The whole cast executed the production with truly professional aplomb. /全體演職人員以一種真正的專業(yè)精神，從容不迫地開始了影片的制作。Euthanasia的意思是“安樂死”，即Euthanasia is the practice of killing someone who is very ill and will never get better in order to end their suffering, usually done at their request or with their consent.由此可見，最貼近句子意思的是“adulation"(諂媚)，即媒體根本不會巴結公眾人物的。于是，整個句子的意思就出來了，就是“對于那些想成為公眾人物的來說，媒體是幾乎不可能與他們套近乎，獻上隨著名聲而來，足以改變一生的諂媚之詞，”。
