The economist says he is optimistic that developed nations will remain _ to improving the quality of life in Africa.
A. admitted
B. submitted
C. committed
D. omitted
题目解答
答案
C. committed
解析
本题考查动词辨义和固定搭配的掌握。关键点在于理解remain后的形容词需与动词形成固定搭配,表示"致力于"的含义。需注意选项中各词的常见用法及语境匹配。
选项分析
- A. admitted:表示"承认",如be admitted to(被录取)或admit to doing(承认做某事),与题干语境无关。
- B. submitted:表示"提交/服从",如submit to authority(服从权威),但搭配submit to improving不符合逻辑。
- C. committed:固定搭配为be committed to(致力于),表示"长期投入",与题干中"改善非洲生活品质"的语境高度契合。
- D. omitted:表示"省略",如omit details(省略细节),与题意无关。
关键结论
"committed"是唯一能与"remain"构成"remain committed to"(继续保持承诺)的正确选项。
