网考网试题解析:

本题考宾语从句。前一句提到Clinton总统观点时用了部分否定的句式,即Clinton总统不完全同意国会关于精简政府和削减开支的意见。换言之,Clinton的总体意见是同意精简政府和削减开支,但在具体细节上与国会有分歧。从下文中可以看到,他们之间的分歧在于“精简哪些部门(parts of government)”以及“精简的幅度(by how much)”。因此,先排除C.whose,因为whose parts of government的提法不合逻辑;然后排除不符合“总体上赞成国会意见”的选项,即A.why和D,that;最后确认B.what为正确答案。 what parts of government意为“政府的哪些部门”。本句大意:对于国会的计划Clinton总统并非全部赞同,他在政府的哪些部门应该被精简以及开支应削减多少这些问题上持不同观点。 document.getElementById("warp").style.display="none"; document.getElementById("content").style.display="block"; 查看试题解析出处>>
