题目解答
答案
A. ins and outs
解析
本题考查对英语短语含义的理解和运用。解题思路是明确每个选项短语的意思,然后结合题目语境来判断哪个短语最合适。
- A选项“ins and outs”:该短语的意思是“详情;来龙去脉”。在题目中,“She had been at the company for 10 years”表明她在公司工作了10年,通常在一个公司工作这么长时间,是会了解公司的所有详情和来龙去脉的,所以“knew all the ins and outs”符合语境。
- B选项“up and down”:它表示“上上下下;起伏”。例如 “The elevator goes up and down.”(电梯上上下下。) 这个短语与了解公司的情况不相关,不符合题目语境。
- C选项“on and off”:意思是“断断续续地;间歇地”。比如 “It rained on and off all day.”(雨下了一整天,时断时续。) 显然,这个短语不能用来描述对公司的了解,不符合题意。
- D选项“back and forth”:意为“来回地;反复地”。例如 “He walked back and forth in the room.”(他在房间里来回踱步。) 该短语也不能表达对公司情况的了解,不符合题目要求。
