选项 A.meaning
B.implying
C.symbolizing
D.claiming

答案 A

解析 本空格所在句是G.I.is just a military abbreviation 7 Government Issue。military abbreviation意为“军事用语缩写”,可推断出Government Issue是G.I.的全称。由选项可知,该空语法结构是动词ing形式作定语,修饰空格前面部分。根据题意应选A项。【命题思路】该题考查近义词辨析。此类题占的比例比较大,需要考生平时多积累。【干扰排除】Government Issue是对G.I.的解释说明,既无象征意思也无隐含意思。所以B项和C项排除。D项意为“声称”,放在这里意思不符,也排除。C项是强干扰项,但symbolize强调象征意义。例:The fall of the Berlin Wall symbolized the end of the Cold War between East and West.柏林墙的倒塌象征着东西方冷战的结束。
