问题 It is the responsibility of the police to ______ law and order in the city.

选项 A、retain
B、restrain
C、remain
D、maintain

答案D

解析 近义词辨析。retain意为“保留,保持”,是正式用语,指继续地保持、占有,有不使失去的意思,可用于物质和精神两方面,如:retain one’s balance(保持平衡);restrain(from)意为“阻止,抑制”,如:re strain one’s surprise from being visible(尽量不让自己的惊奇表露出来);remain意为“保持,保留”,强调继续留在某地,继续某种状态、关系、行动,而不发生改变,如:We must always remain modest and prudent.(我们要经常保持谦虚谨慎。)maintain意为“维护,坚持”,指使动作、状态或情况延续下去,如:maintain one’s family(养家)。句中指的是警察应把城市中的法律和秩序保持、维持下去,故应选D)。
