Question

Joe Jones, the eldest of the eight children, had to ________ out of high school at the age of 16 to help his father on the farm

1. A.
   leave
2. B.
   drop
3. C.
   fall
4. D.
   go

Answer 1

B
試題分析：句意：Joe Jones是八個孩子中最大的，他16歲時不得不從高中輟學去農場幫助父親。the eldest of the eight children 作Joe Jones的同位語；A．leave離開；后直接跟名詞，不用接out of； C. fall 落下； D. go去；B. drop out of…表示“退出，離開……”，是固定短語，故選B。
考點：考查動詞辨析。
