題目：We realized that he was under great________，so we took no notice of his bad temper.
[A] excitement
[B] stress
[C] crisis
[D] nervousness
答案：B
譯文：我們都意識(shí)到他身上的壓力，所以不計(jì)較他的壞脾氣。
解析：名詞辨析題。stress表示“壓力,緊張”，壞脾氣一般與有壓力有關(guān)，因此選[B]。crisis指“危機(jī)”；而nervousness指“神經(jīng)過敏”, excitement指“興奮，激動(dòng)”，與句意不符。
