选择题
Although Xiamen is a gorgeous city, Harry still decided that he would drive all the way home instead of _____ at a hotel for the night.
A.putting down
B.putting off
C.putting on
D.putting up
答案
D
题目分析:根据句意我们可以知道这里应该是填一个有“住下”含义的词组,肯定不是这些put系列词组的最常见的意义,其中put up除了“举起,抬高,建造,搭建,提供。举起”之意外,还有“投宿、过夜”的意思,符合题意。put down放下,支付;put off推迟,拖延,滞留,拒绝,让打消念头;put on穿上,运行,假装;put up句意:他还是决定一路开车回家而不是到旅馆投宿。
