问题
The child was on the ______ of tears when his mother asked him what had happened to him.
选项
A、verge
B、border
C、margin
D、rim
答案
A
解析
近义词辨析。四个选项都有“边界”的意思,但有区别:verge意为“边沿,起始点,临界点行为、状态或情况;在超过时可能开始或发生的一点”,如:on the verge of tears(几乎要流泪了);border意为“边境;国界,边;边缘”,如:a blue dress with a white border(一件镶有白边的蓝衣服);margin意为“边缘,极限;一种情况或过程的极点”,如:the margin of reality(接近真实);rim意为“边;缘;框架”,如:the rim of a hat (帽边)。根据题意,这个小孩快要哭出来,表示临界点行为,所以正确答案为verge。
