Question

The Chinese football team had experienced a series of reforms. However, its performances in Shenzhen in October ________ all the people, especially the crazy fans.

A．knocked down B．let down

C．pulled down D．brought down

 

Answer 1

B

【解析】答案：B　考查動詞短語辨析。句意為：中國足球隊經歷了一系列的改革，然而，10月份它在深圳的表現使所有的人感到失望，特別是瘋狂的球迷們。knock down意為“擊倒，撞倒，擊落”；let down意為“使失望，放下，辜負”；pull down意為“拆毀，摧毀，推翻，拉下來”；bring down意為“降低，打倒，擊落”。根據句中的轉折詞“However”可知，足球隊員們的表現使人們失望，let down符合語境。故答案選B。
