选项 A、conspicuous
B、consistent
C、considerable
D、considerate
答案C
解析 词汇辨析题。本句意为：其次，跨国公司相当一部分资产投资于国际市场。considerable意为"相当多的，相当大的"，这里a considerable portion of指"相当大比例的"。conspicuous意为"惹人注意的，显著的"，如：She’s always conspicuous because of her bright clothes and queer hair style．(因为她衣着鲜艳，发型古怪，所以总是惹人注目)。consistent意为"与…一致的"，如：This statement is not consistent with what you said at yesterday’s meeting．(这个说法与你昨天会上的发言不相符)。considerate意为"考虑周到的"，如：Apartment dwellers who have considerate neighbors are fortunate．(住户有体贴入微的邻居真很幸福)。这三个词不能与portion搭配使用，即不符合句子语法要求。
