选项 A、formulate
B、commence
C、perceive
D、terminate

答案D

解析 选项"terminate"(中止,结束)与其前后的成分结合起来构成一个完整的原因状语从句,即:"because it is too easy for either side to terminate the conversation"(因为双方都极易中止谈话)。该原因状语从句用来限制修饰其前面的主语(The telephone is not a good medium电话不是一种稳妥的方式)。"电话不是一种稳妥的方式"暗示"双方可能会中止对话"。故选项"terminate"(中止)是本题的最佳选项。考生在解题时应注意句子内部各语言成分之间的语义关系。
