2014年10月SAT填空真题及解析
5. The economist had a reputation as ------; his colleagues liked to tease him that he ------ recessions because he looked for trouble.
A. a maverick .. expected
B. an ogre .. disregarded
C. an alarmist .. foresaw
D. an indigent .. downplayed
E. a scholar .. enjoyed
解析：
第二空是这题的突破口，空格前的he指的是economist“经济学家”，空格后的recession一般表示“后退，退化”，而根据本题的语言环境表示“(经济)衰退，不景气”，对应because后的trouble，所以第二空对应look for“期待，指望”，只能在expected和foresaw中选择。再根据后半句中的tease“取笑”可以看出同事对他持嘲笑态度，第一空应该填一个值得嘲笑并且自找麻烦的人，所以选择C选项alarmist“危言耸听者”。整句意思为：这个经济学家被认为总是危言耸听;他的同事经常取笑他，说他预测经济会衰退是因为他总盼着出点乱子。

6. Initially ------ by some shortsighted members of the scientific community, Barbara McClintock was ultimately ------ when she received a Nobel Prize in 1983 for her groundbreaking research in genetics.
A. repudiated .. abjured
B. immortalized .. exonerated
C. rebuffed .. vindicated
D. derided .. ostracized
E. eulogized .. substantiated
解析：
第一空为shortsighted members(目光短浅者)对Barbara McClintock作的动作，应为负向动作，所以可在repudiated“否认”、rebuffed“拒绝”和 derided“嘲笑”中选择。根据received a Nobel Prize可判断第二空为正向动作，所以选C选项的vindicated“证明…正确”。
7. the city councilwoman was devoted to ------ principles, for she believed that all her constituents deserved equal rights and privileges.
A. sectarian
B. egalitarian
C. authoritarian
D. diplomatic
E. bureaucratic
解析：
空格对应……deserved equal rights and privileges“……应得同等权利与特权”，所以选C选项egalitarian“平等主义者”。
