每日一练
History has known few as _____ as the Irish wit Oscar Wilde: on his inaugural trip to America, when asked by customs officials if he had anything to declare, Wilde replied: “The only thing I have to declare is my genius.”
A. arch
B. narcissistic
C. successful
D. misanthropic
E. puckish
F. accomplished
正确答案
A E
题目解析
The clues we want to pay attention to our "wit", meaning this person cracks jokes. Therefore, watch out for the traps that basically suggest Wilde is being an arrogant jerk. Out with (B) and (D). (C) and (F), while synonyms do not fit the context at all. Wilde is having fun with the play on words with 'declare' (which, for the literary inclined, is an instance of a zeugma). (A) is an unfamiliar definition of 'arch.' In this case, it means to be mischievous. Likewise, puckish means playful, mischievous.
