问题 The policemen are making an investigation on the spot in a(n) ______to discover proofs of the crime.

选项 A、attempt
B、try
C、desire
D、expectation

答案A

解析 该题是词汇题,考查名词词义辨析和习惯用法。名词attempt表示“(努力做很困难的事但常常未获成功的)尝试”,构成习惯用法in an attempt(to do sth.),其意思是“企图、试图”,如:Two factories were closed in an attempt to reduce costs.为削减费用,关闭了两家工厂。名词try 表示“尝试”,构成习惯用法have a trying at doing sth.,如:Why don’t you have a trying at convincing him?你为什么不试试说服他?名词desire表示“愿望、欲望”,如:a strong desire for power强烈的权力欲。名词expectation表示“希望、盼望”,如:We are confident in our expectation of a full recovery.我们满怀信心地期待着完全康复。因此,根据题意,选项A为最佳答案。
