GRE大白皮NO.4-9第250页No.8第一套题第3section短文阅读理解的第20题
作者态度题目 原文: We believe,pehaps unimaginative, that this... 考点就是这个unimaginative 正确选项是A pedestrian 这个词本身没有必要讲解,如果你查阅韦氏字典这个单词的解释就是 unimaginative /commonplace 问题出在,不明确unimaginative 和 unimaginable的差别,是错误选择NOVEL的原因。前者是“没有想象力的”后者是“不可想象的” -tive 这个后缀的含义:having a tendency to do, or tending to, 倾向于 unimaginative 在朗文字典的解释比较准确: lacking the ability to think of new or unusaul ideas, ordinary and boring -able 表示能力,所以unimaginable是不可想象的,not imaginable or comprehensible ,too extraordinary or improbable to believe,INCREDIABLE Synonymsfantastic, implausible, inconceivable, unbelievable, unconvincing, unimaginable, unthinkable Related Wordsdoubtful, dubious, far-fetched, fishy, flimsy, questionable, suspect, unlikely, unreasonable; hopeless, impossible; absurd, outlandish, preposterous, ridiculous; indefensible, insupportable, untenable Near Antonymslikely, possible, probable; reasonable
