请从以下四个选项里选出最符合题意的一个选项：
I stared into the darkness and wondered if he was as aware of my presence as ________A. I was of hisB. I was of himC. I did of himD. I did of his
参考答案：A. I was of his
解析：这一题的考点在as...as的成分替代性表达。通常，as...as表达的意思是“像…一样”，即You use the structure as...as when you are comparing things. 不过，由于比较的对象所处的成分不一致，第二个as本身就有指代的作用，因此，并不是两个比较的成分都要完全表达出来。在这一题里，as aware of my presence是表语，因此，as I was aware of his presence也是作表语。不过，出于简洁的要求，通常不会这么写，而是省略为as I was (aware) of his (presence)。当然，最后的his并不是所有格，而是物主代词。
请从以下五个选项里找出最符合题意的一个选项：
The media seldom gives those who seek careers in the public eye any ____ of the life-changing effects of the overwhelming ___ that often accompanies fame.A. intimation... adulationB. rhetoric...acmeC. euphemism...aplombD. mote...abandonE. stasis...euthanasia
参考答案：A. intimation... adulation
解析：这里的好几个词要谓是难度超过了专业八级，达到了SAT和GRE的级别了。先从这句话的语义来看，就是想成为“公众人物”(who seek careers in the eye of the public)的人是几乎不可能从媒体那里得到伴随名气而来的一个东西。那个东西是什么呢?同时，公众人物与媒体的关系是什么呢?从四个选项来看，adulation 的意思是“阿谀”、“奉承;谄媚;恭维”，即Adulation is uncritical admiration and praise of someone or something. 例如：The book was received with adulation by critics. /这本书受到了评论人士的吹捧。Acme的意思是“最高点;顶点;顶峰时刻;顶峰阶段”,即The acme of something is its highest point of achievement or excellence.例如：His work is considered the acme of cinematic art./他的作品被认为是电影艺术的巅峰之作。Aplomp的意思“沉着;镇定;从容不迫;泰然自若” ，即If you do something with aplomb, you do it with confidence in a relaxed way. 例如：The whole cast executed the production with truly professional aplomb. /全体演职人员以一种真正的专业精神，从容不迫地开始了影片的制作。Euthanasia的意思是“安乐死”，即Euthanasia is the practice of killing someone who is very ill and will never get better in order to end their suffering, usually done at their request or with their consent.由此可见，最贴近句子意思的是“adulation"(谄媚)，即媒体根本不会巴结公众人物的。于是，整个句子的意思就出来了，就是“对于那些想成为公众人物的来说，媒体是几乎不可能与他们套近乎，献上随着名声而来，足以改变一生的谄媚之词，”。
