Question

(   ) 1. She is a very unfriendly person and is never ready to help others. So it was not surprising that no one came to her        no matter how hard she cried for help.

A. assistance    B. perseverance C. attendance    D. significance 

Answer 1

1. A考查名词的词义辨析assistance援助，帮助； perseverance坚持不懈，不屈不挽；attendance出席(率) ，参加;significance意义'重要性。come to one's assistance意为"帮助某人"。句意：她是个极不友善的人，从来不乐意帮助别人。因此不管她多大声地求助，都没人来帮她，这一点不让人觉得惊奇。
