问题 The doctor tried to_______ the patient’s suffering which made him hardly stand up.

选项 A、diminish
B、reduce
C、default
D、alleviate

答案D

解析 题意是:医生试图______ 使病人几乎站不起来的痛苦。  [D]alleviate“减轻,缓解(痛苦、险情等)”,符合题意。  [A] diminish“减少,缩小”,指某事物对照原本基础上数量或质量少了很多,常引申为“减弱…的权势”;  [B]reduce“减少”,可用于指体积、数量、程度等的缩小或减少,也可指等级、地位、经济状况等降低;[C]default“拖欠,不履行义务”,是不及物动词,且用在句中不通顺。因此,这三项都不符合题意。
