选项
A、under
B、above
C、beyond
D、within
答案
C
解析
此题属于词语搭配题。beyond表示"(指空间)在…那一边",在借喻中有"超出"之意,偏重于客观事物非本身能力所能达到或完成,例如:The failure arose from circumstances beyond our control.其他类似说法还有beyond one’s power/endurance/comprehension,故选项beyond正确。选项under (control)表示"情况正常,处于控制之下",例如:bring inflation under control选项above强调本身凌驾于一般标准之上,例如:Do you consider yourself above criticism/reproach?(难道你认为谁都不能批评你吗?/你是无可指摘的吗?)选项within通常不与control连用。
