选项 A、spread
B、increase
C、enlarge
D、expand

答案C

解析 本句依然介绍硬石咖啡厅的修缮行动,它想为顾客提供机会来______人们对硬石餐厅的收藏品的形象。四个选项意思相近,都指“扩大”,但用法不同。[C] enlarge指(视野、场地等)扩大,用法举例:A good way to enlarge your vocabulary is to read a daily newspaper.读报纸是扩大词汇量的一个好方法。题目中所提到的扩大,就是增加人们了解硬石咖啡厅收藏品的机会,所以[C]是正确答案。[A] spread通常指某事物扩展影响更多的人,通常是疾病、革命等抽象事物,用法举例:This disease is spreading fast.这种病正在迅速蔓延。[B] increase通常指数量的增加,用法举例:The population increased dramatically in the first half of the century.人口在上半个世纪急剧增加。[D] expand指的是向四周扩展、发展,用法举例:Metal expands when they are heated.金属遇热膨胀。
