问题 We can never promise to sail anywhere in particular, because the weather might________against it.

选项 A、avert
B、inhibit
C、militate
D、prevent

答案C

解析 本题考查动词辨析。由because可知,空格所在句是原因状语从句。再结合主句的never promise to sail anywhere(无法承诺去向何处)判断,从句表达的是天气对航行的不利影响,空格处所填词应表示此含义,且能与against搭配。选项中,只有militate(阻碍,防止)常与against连用,表示“妨碍航行”,故答案为C项。avert为及物动词,意为“防止,避免,转移(视线)”;inhibit为及物动词,意为“阻止,抑制,使拘谨”;prevent为及物动词,意为“防止,预防”。
