问题 Which of the following is NOT an approach for English language to enrich its vocabulary in the past several centuries?

选项 A、Borrowing.
B、Upgradation.
C、Narrowing.
D、Widening.

答案B

解析 英语语义变化方式主要有narrowing/specialization(语义的缩小)、widening/generalization/extension (语义的扩大)、amelioration/elevation(语义的升华)、degradation/pejoration(语义的降格)、transfer of meaning(语义的转移)等,没有upgradation一说。
