GRE大白皮NO.4-9第250页No.8第一套题第3section短文阅读理解的第20题
原文： We believe,pehaps unimaginative, that this...
考点就是这个unimaginative
正确选项是A pedestrian
这个词本身没有必要讲解，如果你查阅韦氏字典这个单词的解释就是 unimaginative /commonplace
问题出在，不明确unimaginative 和 unimaginable的差别，是错误选择NOVEL的原因。前者是“没有想象力的”后者是“不可想象的”
-tive 这个后缀的含义：having a tendency to do, or tending to, 倾向于 unimaginative 在朗文字典的解释比较准确： lacking the ability to think of new or unusaul ideas, ordinary and boring
-able 表示能力，所以unimaginable是不可想象的，not imaginable or comprehensible ，too extraordinary or improbable to believe，INCREDIABLE Synonymsfantastic, implausible, inconceivable, unbelievable, unconvincing, unimaginable, unthinkable Related Wordsdoubtful, dubious, far-fetched, fishy, flimsy, questionable, suspect, unlikely, unreasonable; hopeless, impossible; absurd, outlandish, preposterous, ridiculous; indefensible, insupportable, untenable Near Antonymslikely, possible, probable; reasonable
