Answer 1

【答案】C

【解析】

句意：——你加入了那么多俱乐部．恐怕你太累了。记得不要过分消耗精力。——谢谢，爸爸。我能照顾好自己。

考查谚语。many hands make light work.人多力量大；the early bird catches the worm早起的鸟儿有虫吃；you can’t burn the candle at both ends.蜡烛不能两头点/不要过分消耗精力；practice makes perfect熟能生巧。根据上文You have joined so many clubs. I’m afraid you’ll be too tired.结合选项，可知C选项“蜡烛不能两头点”，含义为“不要过分消耗精力”，符合语境，其它选项均语意不通，故答案选C。
