7.No matter what crimes the suspects have committed, they should be treated with dignity and respect - they are human beings _.
A. in all
B. at all
C. after all
D. all right
题目解答
答案
C. after all
解析
本题考查固定短语的语境应用,核心在于理解四个选项的含义及用法区别。关键点在于:
- after all 表示“毕竟、终究”,常用于转折或强调事实;
- in all 表示“总共”;
- at all 用于否定句,表示“根本”;
- all right 表示“同意”或“没问题”。
句子后半部分通过破折号引出原因,强调“嫌疑人是人类”这一事实,需选择能体现“尽管有罪,但本质上是人”的短语。
选项分析
- A. in all:表示总数,如“共有”,与语境无关;
- B. at all:用于否定句,如“他们根本不是人类”,但句中是肯定句;
- C. after all:表示“毕竟”,强调“作为人类”这一事实,符合语境;
- D. all right:表示同意或回应,如“好吧”,与逻辑不符。
关键逻辑
前半句让步(“无论犯何罪”),后半句转折强调原因(“他们是人类”)。after all 此处突出“毕竟是人类”,即使有罪也应受尊重。
