问题 The Attorney General ordered a federal autopsy of Brown’s body, seeking to________the family and community there would be a thorough investigation into his death.

选项 A、ensure
B、assure
C、insure
D、ascertain

答案 B

解析 检察长下令对布朗进行联邦级别的尸检,试图让死者的家庭和社区确信他们会彻底调查其死因。空格后的the family and community是宾语,之后的there would be是省略that的从句,因此该词要能满足“宾语+从句”的用法。B项assure“使确信,使放心,向……保证”符合要求,又如His doctor has assured us that he’ll be fine. “他的医生已向我们保证他会没事的”。其他三项用作及物动词时,都只能接一个宾语,不能再接从句。A项ensure意为make certain“确定,确保”;C项insure与A项ensure同义,都表“确保”,另外还有“给……保险”之意;D项ascertain意为“确定”。
