选项 A.with
B.up
C.at
D.off

答案 B

解析 介词辨析题。B项(end)up“以…..而结束,最终处于…..,以…一告终”,常用于end up doing something的固定结构中(意料之外的状况),根据原文During this crisis,when there is so much uncertainty about who will end having power...(在这场危机中,由于根本不能确定谁会手握权柄……)end up更符合句子所要表达的意思,故B项为正确选项。【干扰排除】A项(end)with“以……结束”、C项(end)at“在某时刻结束”和D项(end)ofF“结束”,均不符合题意,故均排除。
