A．satisfy; satisfied; satisfying
B．satisfy; satisfying; satisfied
C．satisfied; satisfied; satisfying
D．satisfying; satisfied; satisfied
答案
答案：A
题目分析：句意：政府尽最大的努力去满足人们的需求，但是，人们仍然不满意，事实上，政府所做的行为是令人不满意。try one’s best to do sth尽最大的努力做某事，satisfy满足，动词。satisfied感到满意的，人作主语，satisfying令人满意的，物作主语。故选A
点评：satisfy为动词，satisfied意为感到满意的，一般的以“ed”形式的形容一般用于指人，以“ing”结尾的形容词一般用于指物，意为“令人…”。英语中这类现象很多，学生应注意记忆。
