We were annoyed by his () reply, for we had been led to expect definite assurances of his approval.
A、nonsense
B、noncurrent
C、noncommittal
D、nonsacred
【正确答案】:C
【题目解析】:本题考查形容词辨析。nonsense:无意义的;荒谬的。noncurrent:非流动性的。 noncommittal:不表态的;不确定的;含糊的。nonsacred:不神圣的;世俗的。所选的形容词要修饰的名词是“reply”回复,分析句意可知,前后两句应该是表示相反意思的“回复”,后半句中是definite:确定的,所以C选项与之含义相反,符合题意。句意:我们都因为他不置可否的答复而恼火,因为我们本来是期望得到他明确的认可的。
