问题 The killer arrested by the police has already claimed four lives, and even the detectives are______.
选项 A、baffled
B、inquired
C、frustrated
D、considered
答案 A
解析    (1)句子结构。
   题干是由and引导的两个并列句，第一个分句的结构为主动宾(SVO)，其中主语为the killer，arrested by the police是killer的定语，谓语为has claimed，宾语为four lives；第二个分句的结构为主动补(SVC)，主语为the detectives，系动词are之后为主语补语(表语)。
   (2)选项词义。
   A．baffle vt．使受挫折；使困惑，使迷惑
   B．inquire vt．询问；查究；打听
   C．frustrate vt．挫败；阻挠；使受挫折
   D．consider vt．考虑；认为
   本句大意为“警察拘捕的那个杀手已经夺去了四条人命，连侦探们对此都感到大惑不解”。从上下文来看，那个杀手为什么会疯狂地杀人，这令人不解。因此，在四个选项中，只有选项A最符合题意。
   【知识拓展】词汇拓展：baffle与confuse。
   ①baffle v. be a mystery or bewildering to
   e．g．An apple tree producing square fruit is baffling expeas．
   一棵苹果树结方形果实，这令专家们感到困惑。
   ②confuse v. to make someone feel that they cannot think clearly or do not understand；bewilder
   e．g．I understand the text，but the diagrams are confusing me．
   文字我理解，但是图表把我弄糊涂了。
