问题 In which of the following sentences does the preposition "beneath" carry a metaphorical sense?
选项 A、An X-ray technique has unveiled a hidden portrait beneath the painting.
B、As the content is banal, it is easy to dismiss it as beneath serious consideration.
C、A hole appeared beneath railway tracks at around 3 a.m. on Thursday.
D、Rocks formed beneath the ocean floor may be a source of free hydrogen gas.
答案B
解析 修辞题。隐喻是一种修辞手段，是比喻的一种，通常用一种常见的物体或概念来代替另一种物体或概念，从而暗示它们之间的相似之处。在四个选项中，A提到的“在这幅画下面”、C提到的“在火车铁轨下面”和D提到的“在海底下”都不存在指代或比喻，故均排除。只有B项将“认真的考虑”比喻成了一个层面，故B为答案。
