Members of the union’s negotiating team insisted on several changes to the company’s proposal before they would support it, making it clear that they would ______ no compromise.
A. disclose
B. reject
C. brook
D. tolerate
E. repudiate
F. weigh
解析
答案:
CD
解析:
題目中的insisted on表明公會(huì)強(qiáng)硬的態(tài)度,所以對(duì)compromise是不會(huì)接受的,no體現(xiàn)“不會(huì)”這層否定意思,所以空格選“接受”這層意思,所以正確答案選CD。
brook容忍,tolerate容忍。
此題難點(diǎn)在于考了brook熟詞僻意,大家一般記brook會(huì)記成小溪。
翻譯:
工會(huì)協(xié)商組里面的人員堅(jiān)持在支持這個(gè)提議之前一定要有公司的一些改變,很明顯,他們不會(huì)容忍任何妥協(xié)。
