问题 He was ordered away upon a long ______ to the ice-covered south, to make war upon the natives there and rob them of their furs.

选项 A、excursion
B、expedition
C、tour
D、voyage

答案B

解析 题意为:他受命到冰雪覆盖的南方进行长途探险之旅,与当地的土著交战,并且掠夺他们的裘皮。此题考查名词近义词辨析。expedition意思是“远征”,暗指为特定目标而进行的团体旅行或考察,还可以指探险队。excursion意为“远足”,暗指为寻找乐趣而做的短途旅行。tour意思是“旅行”,主要指为了公务、娱乐或教育参观多处名胜的一次旅行;voyage意思是“长途旅行,远行;航海”,主要指去国外或较远地方的海上旅行。
