Question

Smoking is not allowed in public places since May 1st. It may be a good chance for some people to ______ smoking.

A．put up	B．give up
C．pick up	D．look up

Answer 1

B

解析试题分析：句意：从五月一号不再允许在公共场合吸烟，也许这是人们放弃吸烟的好机会。put up意为“搭起”，give up意为“放弃”，pick up意为“捡起”，look up意为“查询”，只有give up符合句意。
考点：考查动词词组辨析。
