问题 The hideous system was ______ by statesmen in the name of individual liberty.

选项 A、protected
B、guarded
C、defended
D、sheltered

答案C

解析 近义词辨析。protect意为“保护”,常与from、against连用,指“保护…以免遭受危险或伤害”等,如:protect the children from harm(保护儿童免受伤害);guard意为“保卫,防守”,指注意观察、戒备,以免受可能的攻击或伤害,如:guard a coastline(守卫海岸线);defend意为“防护,辩护”,应用范围很广,对象可以是具体的,也可以是抽象的,如:The accused man had a lawyer to defend him.(被告有一个律师为他辩护。)shelter意为“保护,遮蔽”,指保护、保卫免受惩罚或伤害等,如:shield one’s eyes against the glare of the sun(保护眼睛不受强烈的阳光伤害)。四个选项中只有defend有“辩护”的意思,故应选C)。
