Question

【题目】The fact is that I earned my passage by working as an unpaid hand, which ________ my appearance.

A. accounts for B. turns up

C. dresses up D. cuts down

Answer 1

【答案】A

【解析】考查动词短语辨析。句意：事实上，我是通过做义工挣得了船票，这就是我成了现在这个样子的原因。account for＂是……的说明(或原因)＂；turn up＂到来，露面＂；dress up＂装扮，修饰＂；cut down＂减少，削减＂。A项符合句意。
