选项
A、commands
B、requires
C、asks
D、requests
答案
B
解析
词汇辨析题。根据原句可知此处表达的意思是:通常而言,使用这些系统要求使用者安装按键式电话(a touch-tone phone)。表示某项规章制度或条例的要求,应该用动词require。command意为"命令,统帅"。ask、request这两个问都能表示"要求",ask含有期望给以回答或做出反应的意思。当你觉得所要求的东西会得到时,或者不可能被拒绝时,最好用ask。request则比ask正式得多,当你觉得所要求的东西不会得到时,或者有可能被拒绝时,最好用request,因此这个词可以表达谦逊或者客气,如:Gentlemen are requested not to smoke.(先生们请勿吸烟)。与require不同的是,ask和request的主语通常是人,而require的主语可以是物,这里using these systems是物作主语,故排除ask及request。
