abating
yesterday as prison officers agreed to go back to work.
选项
A、ascending
B、retreating
C、diminishing
D、pacifying
答案
C
解析
(1)句子结构。
本句结构为The wave of strikes(主语)that has gripped France for a month(that引导的定语从句)showed(谓语)some signs of abating yesterday(宾语)as prison officers agreed to go back to work(as引导的原因状语从句)。
(2)本句中的修辞。
①the wave of strikes罢工浪潮(暗喻),类似表达如下:
e.g.A wave of immigrants is washing over Western Europe.
移民潮正席卷西欧。
a crime wave犯罪潮a wave of fear一阵恐惧
②(The wave of strikes)that has gripped France法国深受(罢工浪潮)所扰,grip为抓紧之意,在此是拟人用法,类似表达如下:
e.g.Terrorism has gripped the country for the past two years.
两年来恐怖主义一直笼罩着这个国家。
(3)选项词义。
A.ascend v.攀登,上升
B.retreat v.使后退
C.diminish v.使减少;使变小
D.pacify v.使平静;使安静;安抚
句子大意为“由于狱警同意重返工作岗位,困扰法国一个月的罢工浪潮昨日显示出一些缓和的迹象”。题干中的abating意为“减退”,与选项中的diminishing词义最为接近,因此选项C正确。
