Question

【题目】—Why did you just sit in ______ during the meeting?

—Because I had nothing to say.

A. order B. silence C. mess D. quiet

Answer 1

【答案】B

【解析】句意：-在会议上你为什么只是坐着保持沉默？-因为我没有什么要说的。order命令，顺序；silence沉默；mess乱糟糟；quiet安静的。根据下面的答语中Because I had nothing to say可知，他没有什么可说的，所以在会上保持沉默，故选B。in silence是固定短语，沉默地。
