问题
单项选择题
People ______ that vertical flight transports would carry millions of passengers as do the airliners of today
A. convinced
B. anticipated
C. resolved
D. assured
答案
参考答案：B
解析： 本题是说人们预期直升运输机将会像今天的客机一样承载数百万的乘客。B项“anticipate vt．预料，期望”符合题意。如：anticipate difficulties/meeting opposition；anticipate that...)其他三项中，convince vt．“使确信，使信服”(句型：convince sb．of sth．/sb．that...；be convinced of/that...；(美语)convince sb．to do sth．)；resolve v．“决心，决定；解决(困难)，解答(问题)”；assure vt．“使确信，使放心；向……保证”(句型：assure sb．of/that...)，都与题意不符。
