选项 A. hold
B. track
C. order
D. pace

答案 B

解析 本题测试考生根据上下文对词语的搭配能力。hold控制;track追踪,轨迹; order秩序 ; pace步伐。由本句中的连词and可知,前后动作是先后关系。后面说的是该课程可以提供具体反馈,因此应该是先“知道,了解”你的进展,再根据keep…of sth. 这一搭配,只有B项track填入后表示“保持/了解某事物情况/进展”的意思,故正确。keep hold of your progress意为“控制你的进展”,进展是一个自发的过程不能被控制,不符合语义需要,故排除A;C项pace和D项order都不能构成keep…of这一搭配,故排除。
