24. Do you think the President will be able to ___ his promise not to raise tax? (1分)
A. satisfy
B. fulfill
C. sacrifice
D. content
题目解答
答案
B. fulfill
解析
本题考查动词词义辨析,核心在于固定搭配的掌握。关键点在于“promise”与动词的搭配关系。“fulfill one's promise”是固定表达,意为“兑现承诺”,其他选项均不符合语境。
选项分析
A. satisfy
“Satisfy”意为“满足”,通常用于满足某人或某种需求(如satisfy one's needs/desires),但与“承诺”搭配时,需用keep或fulfill,而非satisfy。
B. fulfill
“Fulfill”是“兑现承诺”的固定搭配,表示“履行诺言”。例如:fulfill one's duty(尽责)、fulfill a contract(履行合同)。本题中“President兑现承诺”需用此词。
C. sacrifice
“Sacrifice”意为“牺牲”,常指放弃重要事物(如sacrifice one's time),与“承诺”无直接关联,且句中未体现“牺牲”含义。
D. content
“Content”作动词时意为“使满足”,但结构需为content + 宾语(如content the crowd),而题干中“President”是主语,缺少宾语,搭配不当。
