中单选题【2016年真题】Flints’ finds in the region extending from the Nile Valley to the highlands of eastern Iraq testify to the presence of people as long as 100,000 years ago.
A.prophesy
B.demonstrate
C.imply
D.mention
参考答案:B
答案解析:(1)句子结构。
本句的结构为Flints' finds (主语,find为名词)in the region (地点状语)extending from the Nile Valley to the highlands of eastern Iraq (分词短语作 region 的定语)testify to (谓语)the presence of people (宾语)as long as 100,000 years ago (状语).
(2)选项词义。
A.prophesy v.预告;预言
B.demonstrate v.证明;证实;说明;示范;游行示威
C.imply v.暗示;必 然包含;使 有必要
D.mention v.提到;写到;说到
句子大意为“弗林茨在尼罗河河谷到伊拉克东部高地这一地区的发现证明:早在10万年前就有人类存在”。题干中的testify to意为“证明”,与选项中的demonstrate词义最为接近,因此选项B正确。
