单选题 The voters told the politician that he could ______ on their support in the next general elections.
【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】[解析] 本题测试词组辨析。count on (upon):依靠,指望。例如;You can count on me for everything in the future. (你将来的一切可以全靠我。) You can't count on the weather being fine. (你不能指望天晴。)本句的意思是:“选民们对这位政客说他可以在下次大选中依靠他们。”因此C是正确答案,其余的选项意思都不正确。
