(2013·高考湖北卷)People complain that decisions to approve or deny a permit are often________rather than based on fixed criteria.
A.appropriateB.conscious
C.arbitraryD.controversial
C
选C。句意:人们抱怨说,决定颁发许可证或者拒绝授予可证,这些决定通常都是随意性的行为,而不是以确定的标准为基础的。appropriate“恰当的,合适的”;conscious“意识到的,清醒的”;arbitrary“随意的,任意的;武断的,专横的”;controversial“有争议的”。与后文的fixed criteria(确定的标准/原则)呼应,这里用arbitrary表示“随意的,任意的”。
