问题 They did their best to avoid getting embroiled in the quarrel, preferring to maintain their neutrality as long as possible.

选项 A、involved
B、inclined
C、indulged
D、included

答案A

解析    (1)句子结构。
   本句为主谓结构(SV),其中主语为They, 谓语是did their best,动词不定式to avoid getting embroiled in the quarrel是目的状语,preferring to maintain their neutrality as long as possible分词短语为原因状语。
   (2)选项词义。
   A.involved adj.有关的;卷入的;复杂的
   B.inclined adj.趋向于……的
   C.indulged adj.纵容的
   D.included adj.包括的;[植]内藏的
   句子大意为“他们竭力避免卷入这场争执,更愿意尽可能长期保持中立”。原题中的embroiled意为“卷入的,纠缠不清的”,与选项中的involved词义最为接近,因此选项A正确。
