选项 A、discounted
B、distorted

答案 D

解析 动词辨义。根据题意,她的信件应该是描绘出生活场景和习俗,所以正确答案为portray,意思是“刻画,描绘”,如:This play portrayed King Lear and the society at his time.(这部戏描述了李尔王和他所生活的那个社会。)discount意为“削价出售,打折”,如:discount 20%(打八折);distort意为“扭曲;歪曲(事实)”,如:That newspaper accounts of international affairs are some times distorted.(那家报纸对国际事件的刊载有时是歪曲事实的。)imagine意为“想象,幻想”,主语一般由人来充当,如:Imagine you’ve been shipwrecked.(想象你遭遇到厂舶舶失事。)
