单选题 1.  They're calling ______ all men and boys over the age of 14 to join the army when the country is on the verge of war.
【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】 动词词组辨析。call sb. on/upon意为“对……做短时间访问”,而call on sb. to do sth.表示“号召某人做某事”,如:They called on the workers of the nation to support the strike. 他们号召全国工人支持这次罢工。
   call sb. up表示“打电话给某人”;call for sb. 意为“把……招来,叫……来”,如:call for the waiter招呼服务员过来,而call for sth. 则表示“需要,要求”,如:The situation calls for immediate action.当前的情况需要立即采取行动;call sb. back意为“回电话给”,如:I called him up at five,but he didn't call me back till seven. 我五点钟打电话给他,可是他直到七点才给我回电话。
