问题 The Foreign Secretary tried to______doubts about his handling of the crisis.
选项 A、dispel
B、expel
C、repel
D、quell
答案 A
解析 译文：外交部长试图消除人们对他处理危机的质疑。动词辨析题。[A]dispel意为“消除”，即to make sth．，especially a feeling or belief，go awayor disappear，原指一物使另一物分散消失，从“驱散”引申出“消除”疑虑、恐惧、误会等，根据句意，[A]为答案。[B]expel意为“驱逐；开除”，与题意不符；[C]repel意为“抵制；使……厌恶”，与题意不符；[D]quell意为“制止；平息；镇压”，即to end a situation in which people arebehaving violently or protesting，especially by using force，虽然quell也有“消除”之意，但一般用在文学中，且结合本题句意和搭配可知，quell不如dispel合适，故排除。
