问题 His unfortunate appearance was off set by an attractive personality. The underlined part means all the following EXCEPT________.

选项 A、improved
B、made up for
C、balanced
D、compensated for

答案A

解析 本题考查动词辨析。make up for意为“弥补,补偿”;balance意为“使平衡”,compensate for意为“补偿,弥补”。将此三项代入题干,都能表达“人格魅力抵消了外貌的缺陷”的含义,语义通顺,而improve(提高)放在句中则语义不通。此题为选非题,故答案为A项。off set意为“抵消,补偿”。
