选项
A、antecedents
B、ancestors
C、precedents
D、predators
答案
C
解析
词义辨析题。根据空缺单词前后文可以判断,此处应填一个名词。本句大意为典型的竞选承诺包括为削减官僚主义的繁文缛节作出先例。选项[A]antecedents意为“前例”,强调一件事先于某一件事,用法如There are literary and historical antecedents to this book;[B]ances tors引申义为“原型”,用法如This instrument is an ancestor of the lute;[C]precedents意为“先例”,强调一件事情作为典范指导后来的事情,用法如We hope to set a legal precedent to protect hundreds of miles of green lanes;[D]predators意为“捕食者”,引申义为“掠夺者”。根据上下文可以判断,正确答案为[C]。
