C. consent

D. content

题目解答

答案

D. content

解析

本题考查名词辨析，需要根据语境选择合适的词。关键点在于理解peace与空格词的搭配，以及选项词义的区分。注意peace and content的固定搭配，表示“安宁与满足”，符合句中“人们生活安定、问题得到妥善处理”的语境。

选项分析

  • A. conviction（信念、确信）：与“和平”无直接关联，排除。
  • B. contest（比赛、争论）：与句意无关，排除。
  • C. consent（同意）：虽含“和谐”之意，但更强调“许可”，不符合语境。
  • D. content（满足、安宁）：与peace构成常见搭配peace and content，表示“安宁与满足”，符合句中“人们生活安定、问题解决”的语境。
