Question

【题目】At 8:30 p.m., the performers _______ their make-up and costumes and began their act.

A.put onB.put offC.put outD.put up

Answer 1

【答案】A

【解析】

句意：晚上8点半，表演者们化上妆，穿上戏服，开始表演。

考查动词短语的辨析。put on穿上，涂，抹；put off推迟，拖延 ；put out扑灭；put up张贴， 挂起。根据后面began their act可知，此空应填动词的过去式，结合句意可知，此空是“化妆，穿上”的意思，应填put on，故选A。
