Although the old man was ____ , but he didn’t feel ______. He had a dog as a company. A．alone , alone B．lonely , lonely C．alone , lonely D．lonely , alone

Answer 1

C

词义辨析。alone只是陈述一个客观事实，意思是“独自一人”、“没有同伴或助手”，只用作表语，可作形容词。lonely 则有浓厚的感情色调，指因缺少朋友、同情、友谊时所发生的一种悲伤的和忧郁的感情，意思是“孤独”、“寂寞”，作形容词。句意：尽管这个老人独自一人，但是他不敢觉孤独。他有一条狗作伴。
