解析
本题译文:汽油供不应求,因此必须定量配给。D项意思:scarce(="not" available in sufficient quantity, not equal to the demand)不充足的,缺乏的,供不应求的。Inadequate不适应的,不充分的。lack vt./vi. (="be" without ; not have; have less than enough of) 缺乏;没有;缺少,例如:1)He lacks perseverance.(他缺乏坚定性。)2)Money is lacking for the plan.(此计划尚缺钱。)3)He is lacking in courage.(他缺乏勇气。)be lacking in 常指缺乏某种品质、特点等。lack作及物动词时,一般不用被动语态,故不能选C. lacked.4)They lacked for nothing.(他们什么也不缺。)有人认为,lack for是美国英语。 |
