請問幾題類比題目
請各位指教
1.
題目是: indecipherable: read
答案是: unstoppable: arrest 這我沒有疑問
something indecipherable is difficult to read
something unstoppable is difficult to arrest (stop)
but why not untruthful: believe ?
[untruthful means dishonest/not true]
something is not true/untruthful is difficult to belive!?
untruthful:
DISHONEST, DECEITFUL, MENDACIOUS, UNTRUTHFUL mean
unworthy of trust or belief.
UNTRUTHFUL stresses a discrepancy between what is said and fact or reality.
是「不值得」相信,不是「無法」相信。
2.
題目是: nip: numb?
答案是 augment: greater
我比較好奇題目的nip: numb關係在哪耶?@@
nip
3 : to injure or make numb with cold : CHILL
3. 題目是ramrod: rigidity
答案是hectic: confusion
請問答案這組hectic and confusion的關係?
hectic 忙亂的
4 : characterized by activity, excitement, or confusion
4. rebate: force ? [rebate reduces the force?]
答案是blunt: sharpness
rebate:an amount of money that is paid back to you when you have paid too
much tax, rent 退還,給回扣
記得查字典要查m-w喔!
rebate
1 : to reduce the force or activity of : DIMINISH
2 : to reduce the sharpness of : BLUNT
可是我查不到rebate有reduce force的意思耶
謝謝!
