D. in the face of
题目解答
答案
B. in the light of
解析
本题考查短语辨析,解题思路是理解每个选项短语的含义,然后结合句子语境来判断哪个短语能使句子逻辑通顺。
- A选项:“in the course of” 表示“在……过程中”。例如:In the course of my daily work, I often meet various challenges.(在我日常工作的过程中,我经常会遇到各种各样的挑战。)在本题中,“经理做出一个有远见的决定在她所说的话的过程中”,逻辑不通,所以A选项不符合。
- B选项:“in the light of” 意思是“根据;鉴于”。在本题中,句子表达“经理根据她所说的话做出了一个有远见的决定”,逻辑合理,所以B选项符合题意。
- C选项:“in favor of” 意为“支持;赞成”。例如:Most people are in favor of the new policy.(大多数人赞成这项新政策。)“经理做出一个有远见的决定支持她所说的话”,这种表达不符合正常逻辑,所以C选项不正确。
- D选项:“in the face of” 表示“面对”。例如:In the face of difficulties, we should never give up.(面对困难,我们永远不应放弃。)“经理做出一个有远见的决定面对她所说的话”,逻辑不恰当,所以D选项不合适。
