单选题
In winter drivers have trouble stopping their cars from ______ on icy
roads.
A. skating
B. skidding
C. sliding
D. slipping
【正确答案】
B
【答案解析】[解析] 句中用到了stop sb./sth. from doing sth.(阻止某人/某物做某事)这一固定结构。此题要注意区别词义的不同。skate(滑冰,溜冰)和slip(滑动,滑倒,失足)一般以人作主语;skid侧重指车或车轮打滑,失控滑向一侧(如:The car skidded on a pool of oil and ran into the fence.);slide一般表示在平面上滑动、滑行。所以,B项正确。
