The nocturnal habits and
mournful
cries of owls have made them objects of superstition for some people.
选项
A、peculiar
B、obscure
C、frightful
D、sorrowful
答案
D
解析
这句话的意思是:由于猫头鹰的夜间捕食习惯和——叫声,使它们成为一些人的迷信对象。在给出的选项中,peculiar“奇怪的,特殊的”;obscure"晦暗的,难解的";frightful“可怕的,讨厌的”;sorrowful“悲伤的,悲哀的”。根据常识,猫头鹰是受歧视的,有句老话说:夜猫子进宅,凶多吉少。还有一些相关的迷信说法,如猫头鹰出现的地方,一定会与死亡、悲伤、晦气联系在一起。因此,这道题中划线部分词语意思应与D项一致。正确答案是D。
