12April 改错
请指出下面中译文中存在的问题:
“A publisher currently looking to get their magazine onto newsstands across the country after the Quad and LSC merger will have to confront two monopolies along their supply chain,” the letter states. “Quad-LSC as printer and Quad-LSC as distributor."
信中指出,“Quad 和 LSC合并后组成的Quad-LSC既是印刷商又是运输商。现有的出版社要想将他们的杂志送往全国各地的报亭,就必须在整个供应链上直面对这两大公司的垄断势力。

11April词汇
请从以下四个选项中挑出最合适的词语中:
Even as a child Thomas Edison had very ______mind; at the age of three he performed his first experiment.
A.intricate
B.indignant
C.incidental
D.inquisitive
注:本题摘自电子科大2015年翻硕试卷。
参考答案:D.inquisitive
解析:从这句英文的意思来看,爱迪生在三岁的时候开始了人生的第一次实验,那他的头脑(mind)也势必很“聪明”一类的。那这四个选项里,intricate和incidental可以否认,而inquisitive的意思是“爱打听的;好探问的;过于好奇的”,即An inquisitive person likes finding out about things, especially secret things. 例如:Barrow had an inquisitive nature./巴罗天生就爱打听别人隐私。而另一个选项indignant的意思是“愤怒的;愤慨的”,即If you are indignant, you are shocked and angry, because you think that something is unjust or unfair. 例如:He is indignant at suggestions that they were secret agents./有人暗示他们可能是特务,这让他非常气愤。
