Apart from caring for her children, she has to take on such heavy （） housework as carrying water and firewood.
A. time-consumed
B. timely-consumed
C. time-consuming
D. timely-consuming
题目解答
答案
C. time-consuming
解析
此题考查形容词的用法。time-consuming意为“费时的”，符合句意。time-consumed是被动语态，表示“被消耗时间的”，不符合句意。timely-consumed和timely-consuming不是常用搭配。
