单选题 2.  His bad eyesight ______ him from military service.
【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】 形似义异辨析。exempt sb./sth. from sth.意为“使(某人/某物)免除或豁免”,如:Small businesses have been exempted from the tax increase.小公司免去增加税收。
   contempt是名词,出现于此是用于混淆考生。contempt意为“轻视,轻蔑,鄙视”,一般和介词for搭配,如:I feel contempt for those who maltreat children. 我鄙视虐待孩子的人;attempt表示“尝试,努力,试图”,一般用于attempt to do sth.;tempt表示“劝说,吸引,引诱,诱使”,tempt sb. into sth./doing sth.,tempt sb. to do sth.,如:They tried to tempt her into staying with offers of promotion.他们提出给她晋级来劝说她留下。
