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。
