选项 A、cost
B、took
C、spent
D、pay

答案C

解析 考查动词词义及用法。四个选项均有“花费”的意思,但在用法上有所不同。spend(spent)的主语必须是人,且用法为:spend time/money on sth.或spend time/ money(in)doing sth.或spend money for sth.;cost的主语是物或者某种活动,用法为:sth. costs(sb)+money或(doing)sth. costs(sb)+time;take(took)后面常接双宾语,用法为;It takes sb. + time + to do sth.或doing sth. lakes sb + time;pay的主语为人,用法为:pay(sb)money for sth。根据原文,主语为“Mrs. Warren”是人,且后面接有“in losing”,因此,应用spend的过去式。故本题选C。
