问题 The wave of strikes that has gripped France for a month showed some signs of abating yesterday as prison officers agreed to go back to work.
选项 A、ascending
B、retreating
C、diminishing
D、pacifying
答案C
解析    (1)句子结构。
   本句结构为The wave of strikes(主语)that has gripped France for a month(that引导的定语从句)showed(谓语)some signs of abating yesterday(宾语)as prison officers agreed to go back to work(as引导的原因状语从句)。
   (2)本句中的修辞。
   ①the wave of strikes罢工浪潮(暗喻)，类似表达如下：
   e．g．A wave of immigrants is washing over Western Europe．
   移民潮正席卷西欧。
   a crime wave犯罪潮a wave of fear一阵恐惧
   ②(The wave of strikes)that has gripped France法国深受(罢工浪潮)所扰，grip为抓紧之意，在此是拟人用法，类似表达如下：
   e．g．Terrorism has gripped the country for the past two years．
   两年来恐怖主义一直笼罩着这个国家。
   (3)选项词义。
   A．ascend v.攀登，上升
   B．retreat v.使后退
   C．diminish v.使减少；使变小
   D．pacify v.使平静；使安静；安抚
   句子大意为“由于狱警同意重返工作岗位，困扰法国一个月的罢工浪潮昨日显示出一些缓和的迹象”。题干中的abating意为“减退”，与选项中的diminishing词义最为接近，因此选项C正确。
