问题 He did not relish appealing amongst his friends and ______ of their criticism or censure.

选项 A、running short
B、running out
C、running the gauntlet
D、running ahead

答案C

解析 run the gauntlet原指昔日的一种体罚“夹笞刑”,即受刑人从两排人之间跑过,由列队者殴打,后引申为“备受抨击”,这里指受到朋友的抨击和斥责。A项run short“用完,缺乏”;B项run out“花完”;D项run ahead“超过,赶过”。
