问题 Oil companies in the US are already beginning to feel the pressure. Refinery workers and petroleum-equipment-manufacturing employees are being________.

选项 A、laid out
B、laid off
C、laid down
D、laid aside

答案B

解析 美国的石油企业已开始感觉到压力。炼油厂工人和石油设备制造厂工人纷纷被解雇。动词短语辨析题。lay sb. out表示“打昏某人”;lay sb. off表示“解雇(雇员)”;lay sth. down表示“规定;放下(武器)”;lay sth. aside表示“把某事放在一边;摒弃(某种行为或情感);存储某物”。根据句意可知应选B项laid off。
