中单选题【2016年真题】What these people were waiting for would not have been apparent to others and was perhaps very________to their own minds, too.
A.oblivious
B.obscure
C.objective
D.obvious
参考答案:B
答案解析:(1)句子结构。
本句主语为what引导的主语从句,谓语由and连接的两个动词构成,第一个谓语为would not have been...为虚拟语气,隐含的意思是“即使告诉别人,别人也不甚明了”,
第二个谓语为系表结构,是对事实的陈述。
(2)选项词义。
A.oblivious adj.忘却的;健忘的;不注意的;不知道的
B.obscure adj.昏暗的,朦胧的;晦湿的;隐蔽的;无名的
C.objective adj.客观的,实体的;目标的
D.obvious adj.明显的;显著的;平淡无奇的
本句大意为“对其他人来说,这些人的期待不会是显而易见的,也许连他们自己也不甚清楚”。从上下文来看,选项需具有not apparent的意义,因此,obscure最符合句意。
