单项选择题
The meeting was ______ over by the mayor of the city.
A. presumed
B. proposed
C. presented
D. presided
答案
参考答案:D
解析: preside over的意思是主持,如:The special workshop was presided over by a famous scientist那次专题研讨会是由一位著名的科学家主持的。根据句意“这次会议由市长主持”,故选D。A选项presume“假定,认为”;B选项propose“计划、提议”;C选项present“介绍、提出”,都与句意不符。
