Complete the following sentence with a (compound) word derived from the one(s) given in bracket. Write your word on the ANSWER SHEET.
He rolled a scrap of paper into a ( ) container for those tiny pearl buttons. (cone, shape)
【正确答案】:CONE-SHAPED
【题目解析】:
本题本题考查复合形容词。
由a和container(名词)可知,空缺处应填形容词修饰名词,cone“圆锥形”和shape“形状”可构成复合形容词cone-shaped意为“锥形的”,符合题意。
句意:他把一张废纸卷成圆锥形,用来盛放那些小小的珍珠纽扣。
