选项
A、devote to
B、put to
C、associate with
D、impose on
答案
D
解析
devote to意为"致力于",如:devote one’s life to work"投身于工作";put to"把问题或建议等提交…",如:put the matter to vote"对问题进行表决";associate with意为"把…与…联系或联想起来",如:associate daydreaming with laziness"把做白日梦与懒惰联系在一起"。因为敌视艾滋病患者,公众把不信任和耻辱强加给他们,只有impose on最合适,意为"强加于、对…征税",如:impose tax on wine"对酒类征税"。
