问题 The reporter wanted to ______ a long report into a brief summary.

选项 A、squeeze
B、contract
C、condense
D、shrink

答案 C

解析 近义词辨析。squeeze意为“挤,压榨”,如:squeeze the juice out of a lemon(榨出柠檬汁); contract意为“收缩,使缩短”,多指物质遇冷收缩,如:Low temperature contracts metals.(低温使金属收缩。) condense意为“压缩,精简,(使)浓缩”,指使文章变得短小精炼,也可指使某物浓缩,如:Steam is condensed to water when it touches a cold surface.(水蒸汽触及冷的表面即凝结成水。)shrink意为“缩小,收缩”,指物体在一定条件下会收缩变小,如:This soap won’t shrink woolen clothes.(这种肥皂不会使毛织衣物收缩。)本句指压缩文章长度,故选C)。
