He cared deeply for the poor, and particularly【C4】______ to children. He brought various gifts, money and other useful items to the houses of the poor. He did this at night, and in【C5】______ , so that no one knew,【C6】______ he wanted no glory, he just wanted to help people. He became widely known for his generosity.

选项
A、discarded
B、casted
C、threw
D、dropped
答案
D
解析
动词辨义题。该句前部分说明Nicholas爬上屋顶,所以可推断他是将三袋金子从屋顶“扔下去”。表示“扔下去”这一语义的词语应为drop,故D 为本题答案。
