单选题
What he had in mind ______to nothing less than a total reversal of the
traditional role of the executive.
A.contributed
B.dedicated
C.amounted
D.added
【正确答案】
C
【答案解析】[解析] amounted to的意思是“等于或相当于”,因此C选项符合题意,如:This amotunts to a refusal.(这等于拒绝。)contributed to(促使……发生)、dedicated to[将(时间、精力等)奉献给(工作或事业)]、added…to…(使……增添……)都不正确。本题是说他脑子里想的无非是一种与传统执政者完全相悖的角色。因此C选项为正确答案。
