B。A gracious:有禮貌的,寬厚的,優(yōu)美的;B suspicious:多疑的,可疑的,常指所懷疑的對(duì)象或事情未必是真的,帶有疑神疑鬼、神經(jīng)過敏的含義。C unique:獨(dú)一無二的,唯一的;D particular:特別的,帶有引人注目的意思。根據(jù)句意,應(yīng)選B。全句的意思為:我從不相信他,因?yàn)槲铱傉J(rèn)為他是那種多疑的人。判斷時(shí)請(qǐng)注意,句子前半句是我從不相信他,根據(jù)邏輯關(guān)系,故可以肯定后面描述他的字眼肯定不是什么好字眼,四個(gè)備選答案中,唯有B是帶貶義的詞,故可肯定B為正確答案。
