the rare animals would _____ if men were allowed to shoot as many as they wished
the rare animals would _____ if men were allowed to shoot as many as they wished
A die out B die off C die down D die away
die off 有“相继死亡；绝种 ”的意思，我感觉带进去也对
die down “逐渐消失”
die away “消逝”
感觉带进去都对，
1die out:To cease living completely; become extinct:tribes and tribal customs that died out centuries ago.
看词义可知,die out 指 完全不再生存下去-就是“灭绝”的意思：“部落及其习俗在数百年前就消亡了.”
2.die off:
To undergo a sudden,sharp decline in population:Rabbits were dying off in that county.
看词义可知,die off 是指 人口数量骤然下降：“那国的兔子正在减少.”
3.die down:
To lose strength; subside:The winds died down.
看词义可知,die down是力量的削减：“风力减弱了.”
4.die away :
become less in amount or intensity; "The storm abated".
看词义可知,die away 是数量和强度的减少:“风暴减弱了” 和3类似.
所以应该选A.我教你个记忆的方法,die out表“灭绝”,die off 表“正在灭绝”,虽然这个不是很准确,但你这样记忆做题就没问题了.
