问题 I feel very sad that the young man’ s energetic initiative______with nothing in the experiment, for he met a lot of interference from the powerful authority.

选项 A、burned up
B、tuned up
C、pushed up
D、ended up

答案D

解析 由句子意思看,前面提到“我为这个年轻人的创造力的——感到惋惜,因为他遇到了来自权威的很多阻力”,可推知,空白处的词加上后面的with nothing应当表示“创造力没有得到发挥”,因此应选end up。end up(with something or in doing some—thing)是固定词组,意思是to be in a particular situation,state,or place after a seriesof events,especially when you did not plan it,即“以……而告终/结束”,通常表示意料之外的情况。如:He came round for a coffee and we ended up in having dinner together.(他本来是过来喝杯咖啡的,结果我们在一起吃了晚饭。)Anyone who swims in the rivercould end up with a nasty stomach upset.(任何一个在那条河里游泳的人都会感到胃很不舒服。)其他三个选项:burn up意为“烧起来,烧毁,发怒”;push up意为“向上推”;tune up意为“调音,调整”。
