问题 Smith has repaired the roof to______the house is wind-resistant.

选项 A、improve
B、prove
C、insure
D、ensure

答案D

解析根据句意，Smith has repaired the roof…“史密斯维修房顶……"要填入的不定式“to——”在句中作目的状语，所以应该是D项ensure“确保，保证”，即“确保房子能抵挡大风”。A项improve“改善，改进”；B项prove“证明”；C项insure“投保，(上)保险”。这里，考生应区分insure和ensure的不同。这两个词发音相同，拼写上也很类似，考生非常容易混淆。ensure意为“确保，保证，使安全”，例如：If you want to ensure that you catch the plane，take a taxi．“如果你想要确保赶上那班飞机，就要打的。”insure主要意为“为……投保，为……上保险”，例如：My house is insured against fire．“我的房子保了火险。”
