Other critics asked whether a bomb had been necessary and why the fire department had waited for about an hour after the fire broke out before acting to ________ it.
选项
A、abolish
B、extinguish
C、cancel
D、delete
答案
B
解析
近义词辨析。这组词都有“取消,消除”的含义。abolish意为“消除长期存在的风俗、习惯”等,如:These superstitious practices should be abolished as soon as possible.(这些迷信做法应尽早取消。)extinguish意为“用压服性的武力等手段使之毁灭”,如:You may extinguish a nation,but not the love of liberty. (你可以消灭一个国家,但不能消灭对自由的热爱。)extinguish还有“熄灭(如火等);扑灭”的意思,如:Please extinguish all cigarettes before you get on train.(上车前请熄灭香烟。)cancel意为“因为某种原因消除或者取消某项计划或活动”,如:They have cancelled all other appointments to meet you.(为了接您,他们已经取消所有的约会。)delete主要用来表示“从手稿中删除事物”,如:The expletives were deleted from the transcript.(咒骂部分被从手稿中删除。)从句中的消防队和火灾可知,划线处是“灭火”的意思,故选 extinguish。
