1.19 We commend those who rescue people from dire straits as heroes, and ___ them with the highest praise.
A. accuse
B. hail
C. reprimand
D. condone
题目解答
答案
B. hail
解析
本题考查动词词义辨析和语境匹配能力。关键在于理解句子的情感基调,前半句用“commend”和“heroes”表达了对救援者的高度赞扬,后半句需选择一个与“称赞”情感一致的动词,使句意连贯。
选项分析
- accuse(指责):与前文“称赞英雄”矛盾,排除。
- hail(赞美):意为“热情赞扬”,与“commend”和“highest praise”高度契合,正确。
- reprimand(训斥):负面含义,与语境不符,排除。
- condone(宽容):表示容忍错误,与“赞扬英雄”无关,排除。
