问题 His unfortunate appearance was offset by an attractive personality. The underlined part means all of the following EXCEPT______. (2015-72)
选项 A、improved
B、made up for
C、balanced
D、compensated for
答案A
解析 offset表示“补偿，抵消，弥补”。如：The extra cost of travelling to work is offset by the lower price of houses here．这里低廉的房价抵消了因上班路途远而产生的额外费用。offset的近义词／词组包括balance，make up for，compensate for，counterbalance，redress等。improve指“改善，提高”，显然不符题意。
