Đáp án chính xác

Trả lời:

verified Giải bởi Vietjack

Đáp án D

Giải thích: Câu gốc sử dụng cấu trúc nhấn mạnh:

It + is / was / will be + Noun + that + V = đó chính là … mà …

Dịch nghĩa: Đó chính là sự thiếu tự tin của anh ấy mà làm tôi ngạc nhiên.

Phương án D. What surprised me was his lack of confidence sử dụng cấu trúc nhấn mạnh:

What + V + is / was / will be + Noun = Điều mà … là …

Dịch nghĩa: Điều mà khiến tôi ngạc nhiên là sự thiếu tự tin của anh ấy.

Đây là phương án có nghĩa của câu sát với nghĩa câu gốc nhất.

          A. He surprised me by his lack of confidence = Anh ta đã làm tôi ngạc nhiên bằng sự thiếu tự tin của anh ấy.

Cấu trúc: Surprise sb by sth = làm ai ngạc nhiên bằng cái gì

Trong câu gốc là người nói bị ngạc nhiên khi thấy sự thiếu tự tin của anh ta, anh ta không cố tính làm người khác ngạc nhiên về điều đó, còn câu này sử dụng cấu trúc trên thì có nghĩa là anh ta chủ động làm người nói ngạc nhiên bằng sự thiếu tự tin của mình.

          B. That his lack of confidence surprised me = Sự thiếu tự tin của anh ta làm tôi ngạc nhiên.

Sau “That” phải là một mệnh đề, chứ không phải một danh từ, thì mới đứng đầu câu làm chủ ngữ được.

          C. That he lacked of confidence surprised me = Việc mà anh ta thiếu sự tự tin làm tôi ngạc nhiên.

Cấu trúc: Lack sth = thiếu cái gì ( không có cấu trúc “lack of sth”).

Câu 7:

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42.

The ability of falling cats to right themselves in midair and land on their feet has been a source of wonder for ages. Biologists long regarded it as an example of adaptation by natural selection, but for physicists it bordered on the miraculous.

Newton's laws of motion assume that the total amount of spin of a body cannot change unless an external torque speeds it up or slows it down. If a cat has no spin when it isreleased and experiences no external torque, it ought not to be able to twist around as it falls.

In the speed of its execution, the righting of a tumbling cat resembles a magician's trick. The gyrations of the cat in midair are too fast for the human eye to follow, so the process is obscured. Either the eye must be speeded up, or the cat's fall slowed down for the phenomenon to be observed. A century ago the former was accomplished by means of high-speed photography using equipment now available in any pharmacy. But in the nineteenth century the capture on film of a falling cat constituted a scientific experiment.

          The experiment was described in a paper presented to the Paris Academy in 1894. Two sequences of twenty photographs each, one from the side and one from behind, show a white cat in the act of righting itself. Grainy and quaint though they are, the photos show that the cat was dropped upside down, with no initial spin, and still landed on its feet. Careful analysis of the photos reveals the secret; as the cat rotates the front of its body clockwise, the rear and tail twist counterclockwise, so that the total spin remains zero, in perfect accord with Newton's laws. Halfway down, the cat pulls in its legs before reversing its twist and then extends them again, with the desired end result. The explanation was that while nobody can acquire spin without torque, a flexible one can readily change its orientation, or phase. Cats know this instinctively, but scientists could not be sure how it happened until they increased the speed of their perceptions a thousandfold.

According to the passage, a cat is able to right itself in midair because it is
