单选题 We need one hundred more signatures before we take the ______ to the governor.
A. plea B. petition C. patent D. claim

【正确答案】 B

【答案解析】[解析] B项“petition请愿(书)”符合题意，如：The villagers all signed a petition asking for a hospital to be built. (村民们都在请愿书上签名要求建一所医院。)其他三项“A项plea请求；C项patent专利，执照；D项claim要求，主张”都不正确。本题空格处是说我们带着请愿书去见主管人员。因此B项为正确答案。
