In the airport, I could hear nothing except the roar of aircraft engines which______all other sounds.
选项
A、dwarfed
B、diminished
C、drowned
D、devastated
答案
C
解析
本题四个选项在拼写上较接近,但词义不同。dwarf常用意思为to cause to appear small by comparison,即“使相形见绌”,如:The new tall building dwarfs all the little shops.(新建的高楼使所有那些小商店相形见绌。)diminish的意思是cause to become or seem smaller,即“减少,缩小”,如:His illness diminished his strength.(他的疾病使他身体变弱了。)drown的意思是to cover up a sound by making a loud noise,即“(噪音)掩盖”,如:The noise of the train drowned his voice.(火车的噪音淹没了他的声音。)devastate的意思是to destroy completely,即“毁灭,破坏”,如:Their houses were devastated in the flood.(他们的房子在洪水中被毁了。)相比之下,drowned应该是正确答案。
