练习 1
Which of the following statements is TRUE?
Which of the following statements is TRUE?
Horatio knows what he is working on, but he does not want to give this classified information to Warbuckle.
This statement is false. Horatio does not lie, he simply does not want to give certain information to Warbuckle.
To deny is different than "to disclose". "To deny" usually means to state that something is not true, for example: I deny these allegations that I killed his dog.
This is the true statement. Horatio says that he cannot "disclose" information about what he is working on (it is confidential), and so he cannot "reveal" or "disclose" any information.

Initially, Borbala says that she does not have to .
Initially, Borbala says that she does not have permission 1 to reveal personal details 2.
1 permission: This is the best choice here. Borbala says "she is not allowed" to disclose this information, which means she does not have "permission" or "authority" to give Reed Fountainjot any personal information.
1 the courage: There is no evidence in this article that Borbala does not have the courage, or is not brave enough, to give Reed personal information.
1 time: There is no evidence in this article that Borbala does not have the time to give Reed personal information. This is not the best choice here.
1 the desire: There is no evidence in this article that Borbala does not have desire to give Reed personal information. This is not the best choice here.
2 reveal personal details: Fountainjot writes that Borbala cannot "disclose" any information, which refers to Reed's earlier questions about her name, age and location. "To disclose" means "to reveal" or "to divulge".
2 hide her identity: This is not the best choice here. "To disclose" is not synonymous with "to hide".
2 celebrate her Hungarian heritage: This is not the best choice here. While Borbala is hesitant to give Reed Fountainjot personal information, this has nothing to with Borbala celebrating her cultural heritage.
2 confess her admiration for mechanically-inept American journalists: Hmmn. Interesting theory, but there's really no evidence to support it.
