选项 A、dignified
B、honored
C、prided
D、distinguished

答案 C

解析 动词辨析题。[C]prided为动词,用于pride on结构,表示“对……骄傲”,符合原文,为正确答案。[A]dignified“使尊荣,增威严,使高贵”,一般与介词with连用,例如:dignified him with a title,故排除此项。[B]honored“敬重,尊敬,使荣耀”,一般与介词with搭配,例如:Will you honor me with a visit?排除此项。distinguish oneself as表示“作为……而杰出”,与原文意义不符,因此排除[D]。
