sink vt. 下沉, 沉沒, 該動詞也可作及物動詞用, 意為“使下沉”, 但按本題句意看, 用被動語態不妥。 drown 溺死, 淹死： (vt.) He drowned his wife. (vi) He drowned in the river. (他在河里淹死了。) submit 1) (=put oneself under the control of another) 提交, 呈送 (to) ： Should a wife submit herself to her husband?

10. The new secretary has written a remarkably _____ report only in a few pages but with all the details.

[答案] A. concise.

[注釋] concise (=brief; giving much information in few words) 簡明扼要的：He gave a concise report of the meeting. (他對會議作了簡明扼要的報道。) clear 清楚的。precise (=exact; correctly stated; free form error) 精確的, 明白無誤的; Please tell me the precise measurements. (請告訴我精確的尺寸。) elaborate (=worked out with much care; carefully prepared) 精心制作的, 豐盛的：Peter worked out an elaborate scheme for raising the money. (彼得制定了一項詳盡得計劃來籌集著筆款項。) 孤立地看, 似乎4個形容詞均能修飾report, 但從句子的邏輯關系看, 后半句中有only in a few pages but with all the details, 故concise 是最貼切的選擇了。
