问题 The fire has caused great losses, but the factory tried to ______ the consequences by saying that the damage was not as serious as reported.

选项 A、decrease
B、subtract
C、minimize
D、degrade

答案 C

解析动词辨析。decrease指数量上“减少”，subtract为数学上的“减”，均不能和consequence(后果)这种抽象名词搭配；degrade意为“降级，使退化”，与句意不符；minimize有“轻视，将范围等减小”之意，故正确。
