选项
A、in the way
B、under way
C、out of the way
D、all the way
答案
B
解析
此题属于语意搭配题。under way表示"在进行中",例如:We have several projects under way.根据原文意思,标准化进程正在实行的过程中,故选项under way正确。选项in the way表示"挡道的,妨碍人的",例如:If you’re going to help,at least don’t get in the way.选项out of the way表示"不挡道的,得到解决的",例如:While the fight was going on,he tried to keep out of the way.选项all the way表示"一直地,完全地",例如:I ran all the way to the office.另外与way连用的常见短语有:by the way(顺便地);find one’s way(设法到达);in a way(在某种程度上);in no way(决不);make way(让路);one way or another(用某种方法);give way(让步,屈服);on the way out(即将过时的);see one’s clear way to do/doing sth.(愿意做某事)。全句可译为:后者的情况不仅仅涉及英语。在别的一些正在进行语言标准化的国家也存在这种情况。
