问题 But by the time we are adult, the childhood hiding which dwindled to adolescent shyness, is expected to disappear altogether, as we bravely stride out to meet our guests, hosts, companions, relatives, colleagues, customers, clients, or friends.

选项 A、succumbed
B、resorted
C、adapted
D、diminished

答案D

解析 D项diminished“(使)减少,(使)变小”与画线词dwindled“减少,缩小;变瘦;退化;衰落;变坏”的意思相近,如As he turned the knob,the sound diminished (他一转旋钮,声音就变小了),故选D。A项succumbed“屈服,屈从;服从”;B项resorted“求助,诉诸,采取(某种手段等),常去”;C项adapted“使适应,改编”,均与画线词意思不一致。
