14. It is not the first time that one of the company's famed self-driving cars has been____in a crash .
A. engaged
B. participated
C. involved
D. referred
题目解答
答案
C. involved
解析
本题考查动词的固定搭配,核心在于区分选项中四个动词短语在被动语态中的使用场景。关键点在于理解"be involved in"是表示“卷入事故”的固定表达,而其他选项不符合语境。
选项分析
- A. engaged:通常指“参与(活动、任务)”,如“engaged in a discussion”,但不用于描述车辆与事故的关系。
- B. participated:强调“主动参与”,如“participate in a meeting”,与事故语境无关。
- C. involved:表示“卷入、涉及”,"be involved in a crash"是固定搭配,专指车辆或人参与事故。
- D. referred:意为“提及、推荐”,如“referred to a doctor”,与题意无关。
关键结论
"Involved" 是唯一符合“车辆卷入碰撞”语境的选项,其余选项均无法准确表达被动卷入事故的含义。
