[解题思路] 本题考核的知识点是：形容词。[A] first意为“第一的”；[B] contrary意为“相反的”；[C] reverse意为“颠倒的”；[D] different意为“不同的”。这道题考查形容词辨析，语义最为接近的就是[B]和[C]两个选项。这里需要一个固定用法的知识：如果：表示“语义相反”，通常使用[B] contrary。但如果表示“反之”，则使用reverse，常用the reverse is true表示“反之亦然”。本题中表的是“反之则不成立”。 document.getElementById("warp").style.display="none"; document.getElementById("content").style.display="block"; 查看试题解析出处>>
