问题 Dad had a hang-up about that expletive, even if he didn’t totally abstain from cursing. He also got irritated when Archie Bunker said "GD" on television.
选项 A、sustain
B、attain
C、entertain
D、refrain
答案 D
解析 形近词辨析。 “expletive(咒骂语)”和“cursing(咒骂)”词性不同，语义相近。前半句“父亲对骂人的话说不出口，尽管他不能完全______咒骂”，根据“even if”让步条件的言外之意，推断“abstain from”和“hang-up”语义应该相近，为“忍住”。后半句的关键词“irritated(生气)”的语义也能推断出这一情绪引发的反应。除了语义，refrain还能与from搭配。故选D。
