题型说明：Directions: There are 20 incomplete sentences in this part. For each sentence there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that best completes the sentence.
1. (2.0分) I find it difficult to ___ a conversation with a stranger.()
A. began
B. start up
C. strike
D. strike up
题目解答
答案
D. strike up
解析
本题考查动词短语的用法，核心在于区分“start”和“strike”相关短语的固定搭配。关键点在于理解“strike up”在表示“开始（对话/关系）”时的特殊用法，尤其强调与陌生人建立初步交流的情境。
选项分析
A. began
- “Began”是“begin”的过去式，但题目中需要的是动词原形（不定式结构“to ___”），因此时态不符。
B. start up
- “Start up”意为“开始、启动”，通常用于具体活动（如启动机器、开始项目）。虽然可以勉强表示“开始对话”，但搭配不够地道。
C. strike
- “Strike”单独使用时意为“击打”，与“conversation”搭配不合逻辑。
D. strike up
- 固定短语“strike up”意为“开始（对话/关系）”，尤其指与陌生人建立初步交流，符合题干中“与陌生人交谈”的语境。
