考博英语每日一练(参考答案)

1.D

【句意】众所周知，纽约是一个怪人层出的城市，也是一个零零碎碎的古怪信息的中心。

【精析】名词词义辨析。veteran“老兵;老手，经验丰富的人”;victim“受害人;牺牲品”;pedestrian“步行者，行人”;eccentric“古怪的人”。根据句子后面的“a center for odd bits of information一个零零碎碎的古怪信息的中心”的对应和词义辨析知“古怪的人”更符合语境，故D项正确。

2.A

【句意】他刚有了一个故事的概要，就把一群自己的朋友们召集到家里，然后把它读给他们听。

【解析】固定搭配。由固定搭配“No sooner did (had)...than...一……就……;刚……就”知A项正确。
