问题 Dad had a hang-up about that expletive, even if he didn’t totally abstain from cursing. He also got irritated when Archie Bunker said "GD" on television.

选项 A、sustain
B、attain
C、entertain
D、refrain

答案D

解析 形近词辨析。 “expletive(咒骂语)”和“cursing(咒骂)”词性不同,语义相近。前半句“父亲对骂人的话说不出口,尽管他不能完全______咒骂”,根据“even if”让步条件的言外之意,推断“abstain from”和“hang-up”语义应该相近,为“忍住”。后半句的关键词“irritated(生气)”的语义也能推断出这一情绪引发的反应。除了语义,refrain还能与from搭配。故选D。
