(2013·高考湖北卷)While intelligent people can often________the complex,a fool is more likely to complicate the simple.

Asacrifice? Bsubstitute

Csimplify? Dsurvive

 

【答案】

C

【解析】C。句意:聰明人經(jīng)常能把復(fù)雜的事情簡單化,而愚蠢的人更可能會把簡單的問題復(fù)雜化。根據(jù)語境:這里用simplify與后面的simple呼應(yīng),complex與后面的complicate呼應(yīng)。另外三個選項的含義為:sacrifice“犧牲;substitute“代替survive“幸存。
