  2015年10月29日SAT官方逐日一題

  標題範例:Critical Reading > Sentence Completions

  Choose the word or set of words that, when inserted in the sentence, best fits the meaning of the sentence as a whole.

  The actor’s ------- decline in popularity was as striking and unexpected as his ------- rise to prominence had been.

  (A) sudden . . meteoric

  (B) gradual . . equivocal

  (C) precipitous . . obscure

  (D) dazzling . . secret

  (E) inevitable . . unpredictable

  謎底:A

  【剖析】

  Choice (A) is correct. We know that “striking and unexpected” describes both the actor’s rise and his decline; “sudden” fits with this description, as does “meteoric,” which means suddenly or temporarily brilliant.
