问题 If the president makes his usual speech, it will _______ the ceremony by twenty minutes.
选项 A、magnify
B、prolong
C、delay
D、exceed
答案B
解析 动词辨义。magnify意为“放大，扩大”，如：You have grossly magnified a trivial situation．(你过分地夸大了一件鸡毛蒜皮的小事。)prolong意为“延长，拖延，拉长”，如：The delegation decided to prolong their visit by one week．(代表团决定把访问延长一个星期。)delay意为“拖延，推迟”，作为“拖延”讲时为不及物动词，不能直接带宾语。作为及物动词时，意为“推迟”，如：delay the ceremony(推迟召开仪式)；exceed意为“超过，超出，逾越”，如：The results of the competition exceeded our expectations．(比赛的结果比我们预料的好。)根据题意和用法，B)项为最佳答案。
