选项
A、dripping
B、flowing
C、leaking
D、flooding
答案
C
解析
动词辨析题。句意为:不要去管天然气,除非你闻到了气味或它在渗漏。[A]dripping特指液体的“滴下”,例如:Water is dripping from the pipe.[B]flowing指液体或人潮的“流动”,例如:The tide began to flow and ourfootprints were covered.[C]leaking指“渗漏,泄漏”,例如:We stopped the leakin the gas pipe by means of lead.[D]flooding指“淹没”,例如:The office wasflooded with complaints.原文是在说天然气的泄漏,故选择leaking。
