20.If you are to succeed as a salesman, first of all, you must not be ____.
A. humid B. aggressive
C. bold D. timid
20.答案D。
【参考译文】 如果你要做一个成功的推销员,首先你不能胆小。
【试题分析】 此题为形容词辨析题,根据句意来判断。
【详细解答】 timid羞怯的,胆小的:The girl is quite timid and dare not come out to meet the guests.小女孩很害羞,不敢出来见客人们。A. humid潮湿的:I hope the weather will not be so humid in two days.我希望两天后天气不再这么潮湿。B. aggressive好与人发生口角的,好攻击的;进取的:He is an aggressive person and is likely to start a fight.他生性好攻击,易与人打架。C. bold勇敢的,冒失的。D. timid为适当选择,因为推销员(salesman)必须善言辞,会交往才能成功。如果羞怯当然不容易成功。
