中单选题【2016年真题】Yahoo news says that January 17 is commonly known as the day when New Year's resolutions are ditched, and some psychologists believe many people give up even faster.
A.amended
B.abandoned
C.altered
D.affected
参考答案:B
答案解析:(1)句子结构。
本句结构为 Yahoo news (主语)says (谓语)that January 17 is commonly known as the day when New Year's resolutions are ditched (that引导的宾语从句,其中when引导的从句为 the day的定语)。
(2)选项词义。
A.amend v.修正
B.abandon v.放弃,被抛弃;恣意放荡;寡廉鲜耻
C.alter v.改变;更改;变动
D.affect v.影响;使感染
句子大意为“据雅虎新闻报道,人们通常在1月17日放弃新年计划,而一些心理学家认为许多人放弃的时间更早”。原题的ditched意为“放弃”,与选项中的abandoned词义最为接近,因此选项B正确。
