问题
The fire has caused great losses, but the factory tried to ______ the consequences by saying that the damage was not as serious as reported.
选项
A、decrease
B、subtract
C、minimize
D、degrade
答案
C
解析
动词辨析。decrease指数量上“减少”,subtract为数学上的“减”,均不能和consequence(后果)这种抽象名词搭配;degrade意为“降级,使退化”,与句意不符;minimize有“轻视,将范围等减小”之意,故正确。
