中单选题【2018年真题】Although much of today's communication and correspondence takes place online, the postal service is not quite obsolete.
A.discarded
B.removed
C.outdated
D.closed
参考答案:C
答案解析:(1)句子结构。
本题句子结构:Although much of today's communication and correspondence takes place
online (让步状语从句),the postal service (主语)is (系动词)not quite obsolete (主语补语,即表语)。
(2)选项词义
A. discard vt.废弃,丢弃
B. Remove vt.开除;去除;脱掉,拿下;迁移
C.outdate vt.使过时
D.close vt.关;结束;使靠近
句子大意为"虽然现在大部分通讯都在互联网上进行,但邮政服务并未完全落伍"。原题中的obsolete意为"淘汰的",与选项中的outdated词义最为接近,因此选项C正确。
