D. violent
题目解答
答案
B. broker(s)
解析
本题考查词汇辨析,解题思路是根据句子语境,分析每个选项单词的含义,看哪个选项能使句子语义通顺合理。
- A选项“ambition”:意为“野心;抱负;志向”。将其代入句子“Orders from the stock ambition were rushing in constantly”,“股票的野心”这种表达不符合逻辑,不能使句子语义通顺,所以A选项不正确。
- B选项“broker(s)”:意为“经纪人;掮客”。“stock broker”是常见的表达,指“股票经纪人”。句子“Orders from the stock brokers were rushing in constantly”表示“来自股票经纪人的订单不断涌入”,语义合理,符合语境,所以B选项正确。
- C选项“excursion”:意为“远足;短途旅行;游览”。“股票远足”这种说法在该语境中毫无意义,不能使句子表达合理的意思,所以C选项不正确。
- D选项“violent”:是形容词,意为“暴力的;猛烈的;强烈的”。而句子中需要的是一个名词作“from”的宾语,词性不符,所以D选项不正确。
