问题 After the big storm the people on the shore anxiously______the lake for any sign of the boat.

选项 A、stared
B、scorned
C、skimmed
D、scanned

答案D

解析 stare“盯,凝视,目不转睛地看”,后面通常接介词at,如:stare at sb.“盯着某人”。scorn“轻蔑,不屑做”,很显然这两个词都不合适。skim“轻轻掠过(某表面),轻轻擦过。略读,快读”,如:The swallow were skimming(over)the water.“燕子掠过水面。”skim(through)a newspaper/catalogue,etc. “略读报纸(目录等)”。scan“细查,审视;匆促地略看,扫视”,如:The shipwrecked sailor scanned the hori—zon anxiously every morning.“这位遭船难的水手每天早晨都焦急地审视着海天相接之处。”He scanned the newspaper while having his breakfast.“他在吃早餐的时候把报纸大略地翻阅了一下。”由此可见scan最符合题意,指“审视湖面以期发现船只的迹象"。
