Question

【题目】—In the old days, most teenagers had to work for the landlord (地主) in the field to help _____ their families, because their families couldn’t _____ education for them.

—What a pity!

A.support; supply B.afford; support

C.support; afford D.afford; give

Answer 1

【答案】C

【解析】

试题分析：句意：-过去，大多数青少年不得不为地主在田野上劳作来帮助支撑他们的家人，因为他们的家庭不能为他们负担起教育费用。-真遗憾！afford 指“提供，供给”，还可以特指经济能力，负担得起。supply 指“供给，补充，弥补”，还可作名词，意为“供给（量），物资，存货”； support支持；give给。所以选C。
