D.examine
题目解答
答案
句意为政府决心到2020年___贫困。
The government is determined to _ poverty by the year of 2020.中有用法 be determined to do sth,横线处缺少动词原形,结合选项词意:A项 explore 冒险,B项 escape 逃跑,C项 eliminate 剔除,根除,D项 examine 检查,依次代入句中可填 eliminate 即消除贫困,故答案是 C。
解析
此题考查的是词汇辨析。句意为“政府决心到2020年消除贫困”。根据句意和固定搭配 be determined to do sth(决心做某事),横线处需要填入一个动词原形。选项中,A项 explore 意为“冒险”,B项 escape 意为“逃跑”,C项 eliminate 意为“剔除,根除”,D项 examine 意为“检查”。结合句意,最合适的词是 eliminate,意为“消除贫困”。
