问题
British hopes of a gold medal in the Olympic Games suffered ______ yesterday, when Hunter failed to qualify during the preliminary heats.
选项
A、a sharp set-back
B、severe set-back
C、a severe blown-up
D、sharp blown-up
答案
A
解析
set something back的意思是to reduce something to a weaker or less advanced state,即“减少”的意思,例如 This result has set back their chance of winning the competition.修饰减少的程度用sharp恰当,severe表示“严厉的,严格的”,所以本题选A,表示英国在奥运会上夺金牌的希望昨天急速减少。
