Complete each of the following sentences with a word derived from the one given in the bracket.

The thought of losing the race was ( )to him. (bear)


【正确答案】:UNBEARABLE
【题目解析】:

本题考查的是常见动词的派生形容词。

由was和to可知,空缺处应填形容词,bear作动词意为“忍受”,形容词形式是bearable“可忍受的”,分析语境,输掉比赛带来的通常是负面情绪,应加前缀un-变为它的反义词unbearable“难以忍受的”。

句意:比赛失利的念头对他来说是难以忍受的。
