C)considerate表示“考慮周到的,體貼的”,如:We should be considerate of the comfort of old people(我們應(yīng)該考慮老人的舒適狀況。)

答案:A
譯文:1974年至1997年間,海外游人的數(shù)目增加了百分之二十七。
測(cè)試點(diǎn)為介詞by與數(shù)量詞連用時(shí)的用法。介詞by引導(dǎo)表示增加、減少、相差多少的量。例如:Their wages had gone down by a full third in the past two years.(過(guò)去兩年中他們的工資收入足足下降了三分之一。)

測(cè)試點(diǎn)是動(dòng)詞辨義。
A)swallow表示“吞咽、淹沒(méi)”,如:Chew your food properly before swallowing it.(把食物嚼碎后再咽下)。
B)dispose意思是:“處理、安排”,常與of搭配,表示“處理;除掉”如:The wastes must be disposed of in a way that will not damage the environment(廢物必須用一種不危及環(huán)境的方式加以處理。)再如:All the furniture has been disposed of.(所有的家具都已處理掉了)。
C)consume意思為“消耗、消費(fèi)”,可以表示“吃、喝”。如:Mary would consume nearly a pound of cheese per day(瑪麗一天差不多要吃一磅乳酪。)其常用詞組為be consumed with (by)(被某種感情吞噬)。
D)exhaust表示“用盡、耗盡、使筋疲力盡”,常說(shuō):exhaust one’s patience(使某人忍無(wú)可忍),exhaust one’s strength (用盡力氣),再如: After working for eight hours without any rest,the doctors were exhausted (經(jīng)過(guò)八個(gè)小時(shí)不停地工作,醫(yī)生們已筋疲力盡了。)當(dāng)與食物類連用時(shí),強(qiáng)調(diào)的是“消耗殆盡”,相當(dāng)于use up completely。故C)為正確答案。
