单选题
The Silvanus Museum staff is organizing a retirement party in honor of its______ director, Mr. Alvaro, who has served there for 25 years.
【正确答案】
C
【答案解析】解析:根据上下文语义,此处意为“为向工作了25年的主管致敬而举办的退休宴”,因此形容词(C)outgoing(即将离职的)为正确答案。(A)definite意为“确切的,一定的”,(B)total意为“全部的,整体的”,(D)withdrawn意为“偏僻的;孤独的”。作为参考,可将in honor of(向……致敬)作为惯用语进行记忆。
