Question

Gina is very shy. She is afraid in front of the class.

A. speaking B. to speak C. talking D. to say

Answer 1

B

【解析】

试题分析：句意：吉娜非常害羞。她不敢在全班面前说话。speak“说话”，侧重发音，是不及物动词； talk谈话，不及物动词，say说，侧重说话内容，是及物动词。因为空格后面没有宾语，故此处用不及物动词speak。be afraid to do sth“不敢做某事”，故此处为to speak, 故选B。

考点：考查动词词义辨析的用法。
