问题 My aunt tried her best to _______the situation, but the damage was already done.

选项 A、adjust
B、regulate
C、rectify
D、amend

答案C

解析 我的姑姑竭尽全力整顿局面,但损失已经造成。A.adjust一般指很小的“改变”或技术性的“调整、修理”,例如:I adjusted the air conditioner to stay cool.我调节了空调以保持凉爽。B.regulate指根据规定或需要对某物进行调整或调节,使之准确工作或运行,多含有“控制,规范”之意,例如:Lights are used to regulate the traffic.红绿灯被用来管制交通。C.rectify指进彻底的改动,强调通过整顿、修改来改正、修正,例如:The government tried to rectify the state of chaos.政府设法整顿这种混乱局面。D.amend“修改,改良”,强调通过修改使之得到提高,例如:The politicians amended the law to provide more jobs.政治家们修正了这项法律以提供更多的就业。注:根据后半句的内容可知,这里的“整顿”不是小改变,因而不选A而选C。
