试题出自试卷《河海大学2008年考博英语第二期真题》

问题1选项
A.ingested
B.infested
C.infected
D.injected

B

考查短语词义辨析。A选项be ingested with没有这个短语，ingest “摄入，吸收”：B选项be infested with “多得成灾”；C选项be infected with “感染上……：传染上……”；D选项be injected with “被注射”。由关键词 “rice and cotton fields” “swarms of pests”可推测大概句意为“遭受虫害”，进而可推测beset有 “为……困扰”意思，四个选项中排除A选项与D选项，C选项的infect “感染”不符合句意，故B选项正确。句意：稻谷和棉花地受成群的如稻蝗和红燐虫等害虫的围攻。因此B选项正确。
