单选题 He knew that he would be punished severely because of his serious error. Therefore he ______ away the day before yesterday.
A. cautioned B. fled C. chattered D. civilized

【正确答案】 B

【答案解析】[解析] 本句说他知道自己的错误很严重，将会受到严惩，因此他前天就逃跑了。fled 是flee的过去式，意思是“逃逸”，符合句意。如：He was to flee his native village to join the rebel army．他被迫逃离家乡参加了叛军。而cautioned“警告”；chattered“喋喋不休的谈”；civilized“文明的”都与句意不符。
