In the letter "To the Right Honorable the Earl of Chesterfield," Samuel Johnson expressed his （ ）toward the Earl.
A、indignation
B、gratitude
C、satisfaction
D、concern
【正确答案】：A
【题目解析】：本题主要考察约翰逊的写作特点。The seemingly peaceful retrospection, reasoning and questioning express, to the best satiric effect, the author's strong indignation at the lord's fame-fishing and his firm resolution not to be reconciled to the hypocritical lord. 看似平和的反思、推理和质疑，最具讽刺意味的是，作者表达了他对勋爵的名垂青史的强烈愤慨，以及他不与虚伪的勋爵和解的坚定决心。B选项感激，C选项满意，D选项关心均不符合题干要求，故选A“愤慨”。
