问题 By the early eighth century, the Byzantine empire had lost roughly two-thirds of the territory it had possessed in the year 600, and its remaining area was being raided by Arabs and Bulgarians, who at times threatened to take Constantinople and______the empire altogether.
选项 A、regain
B、diminish
C、extinguish
D、withstand
答案 C
解析 四个选项的意思分别是：regain重新获得，恢复；diminish减小，减弱，降低；extinguish消除，使破灭；withstand经受，承受。空格所在句主要是说，阿拉伯人和保加利亚人入侵拜占庭帝国剩余的领土，他们威胁要攻占君士坦丁堡，并让这个帝国彻底灭亡。据此可知，正确答案是C选项。
