Question

1. Although he often had the opportunity,Mr Tritt was never able to steal money from a customer. This would have endangered his position at the bank,and he did not want to jeopardize his future.(   )

Answer 1

1. 使……陷人危險。句意：雖然他常常有機會，但崔特先生從來不敢從銀行客戶那里偷錢。如果他那么做的話，他在銀行的職位會處于危險的境地，而且他不想使他的未來陷入危機。為了避免重復使用endanger—詞，用其近義詞jeopardize來替代，由此推知其詞義為"使……陷人危險"。
