Complete the following sentence with a (compound) word derived from the one(s) given in bracket.

The police described one of the arrested men as a leading ( ).(terror)


【正确答案】:TERRORIST
【题目解析】:

本题考查的是常用名词的派生词含义。

由a leading可知,空缺处应填名词,terror是名词意为“恐怖”,后接ist变为terrorist意为“恐怖分子”。分析语境,警方逮捕的人应为恐怖分子,而不是恐怖。

句意:警方描述,其中一名被逮捕的男子是一个恐怖分子头目。
