50、，person意為“人”，winner意為“獲勝者”，enemy意為“敵人”。上文提到馬休參加了一場(chǎng)決定性的象棋比賽，master player表示“大師選手”。故A正確。3.A.supportB.attackC.advanceD.escape答案:D解析 本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。support意為“支持”，attack意為“攻擊”，advance意為“前進(jìn)”，escape意為“逃離”。上文提到馬休發(fā)現(xiàn)他的王后處于被攻擊的危險(xiǎn)中，后文提到由于王后是最重要的一個(gè)棋子，由此可以推測(cè)，此處表示“躲避，逃脫”。故D正確。4.A.suitableB.powerfulC.respectedD.dang

51、erous答案:B解析 本題考查的是形容詞詞義辨析。suitable意為“合適的”，powerful意為“有權(quán)勢(shì)的”，respected意為“受尊敬的”，dangerous意為“危險(xiǎn)的”。根據(jù)常識(shí)可知，王后是象棋中最有權(quán)勢(shì)的一個(gè)棋子。故B正確。5.A.checkB.fightC.safetyD.defeat答案:C解析 本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。check意為“檢查”，fight意為“斗爭(zhēng)”，safety意為“安全性”，defeat意為“打敗”。根據(jù)上下文可知，由于王后是最重要的一個(gè)棋子，觀眾自然會(huì)認(rèn)為馬休要將他的王后移到安全的地方。故C正確。6.A.conditionB.changeC.p

52、ieceD.action答案:A解析 本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。condition意為“狀況”，change意為“變化”，piece意為“棋子”，action意為“行動(dòng)”。根據(jù)上下文可知，馬休的王后目前處于被攻擊的危險(xiǎn)中，他需要慎重考慮目前這種狀況來挽救棋局。故A正確。7.A.protectedB.undisturbedC.unexpectedD.deserted答案:C解析 本題考查的是形容詞詞義辨析。protected意為“被保護(hù)的”，undisturbed意為“不被打擾的”，unexpected意為“不可思議的”，deserted意為“偏僻的”。由后文可知，馬休犧牲了他的王后，由此可以

53、推測(cè)，馬休將王后放到了最不可思議的格子里。故C正確。8.A.frightenedB.guardedC.discoveredD.caught答案:D解析 本題考查的是動(dòng)詞詞義辨析。frighten意為“驚嚇”，guard意為“保護(hù)”，discover意為“發(fā)現(xiàn)”，catch意為“抓住”。由后文可知，馬休犧牲了他的王后，可以推測(cè)，馬休將王后放到了最不可思議的格子里，王后將會(huì)被三個(gè)敵人中的任何一個(gè)所吃掉。故D正確。9.A.comfortedB.disappointedC.delightedD.annoyed答案:B解析 本題考查的是形容詞詞義辨析。comforted意為“安慰的”，disappoin

54、ted意為“失望的”，delighted意為“高興的”，annoyed意為“氣惱的”。上文提到當(dāng)所有人都以為馬休會(huì)將王后移到安全地帶時(shí)，他卻犧牲了王后，這是一步出乎意料的走法，所以每個(gè)人都很失望。故B正確。10.A.playersB.masterC.crowdD.organizer答案:A解析 本題考查的是對(duì)上下文理解。players意為“選手”，master意為“大師”，crowd意為“人群”，organizer意為“組織者”。根據(jù)上文可知，觀眾們都以為馬休會(huì)將王后移到棋盤的安全地帶，因此不可能意識(shí)到馬休走了一步聰明的棋。全文沒有提到組織者，故A正確。11.A.smartB.wrongC.f

55、reeD.difficult答案:A解析 本題考查的是形容詞的用法。smart意為“聰明的”，wrong意為“錯(cuò)誤的”，free意為“免費(fèi)的”，difficult意為“困難的”。由后文可知俄羅斯人承認(rèn)了自己的失敗，由此可以推測(cè)，馬休這一走法是很聰明，很明智的。故A正確。12.A.gameB.moneyC.queenD.chessboard答案:A解析 本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。game意為“比賽”，money意為“錢”，queen意為“王后”，chessboard意為“棋盤”。上文提到馬休的王后處于被攻擊的危險(xiǎn)中，馬休犧牲了他的王后，這是一步很明智的走法，以及下文俄羅斯人承認(rèn)了自己的失敗可知，接下來不管比賽如何進(jìn)行，結(jié)果都已成定局。故A正確。13.A.losingB.favourableC.leadingD.doubtful答案:A解析 本題考查的
